What Your Bid Day Theme Says About You

258

We all choose different themes for our Bid Day. But no matter what you wear, or how you wear it; any Bid Day theme will always show the love you have for your sisters and new pledge class.


New Bids On The Block

This “punny” take on the late 80s boy band’s name “New Kids On The Block” is a classic bid day theme. You are fun, crazy and not afraid to show your true colors. Strutting around bid day in neon clothes and 80's styled garments does not faze you. You rock that look and love it. Keep on keeping on.


Camo / Army:

You are able to take a classic male look and make it trendy; your sorority is basically the Dianne Keaton of sorority row. Taking a fashion risk is an everyday occurrence for you, so why not take a risk on bid day? Camo/ Army theme shows that you are laid back and wanting to be comfortable at any moment of the day, while still looking fashionable.


Let It Be (Insert Sorority Name Here)

As an homage to the classic Beatles song of the same name, this classic bid day theme can almost always be seen by at least one sorority on campus. This 60's theme is almost always coupled with flower headbands and cute face paint; this bid day theme shows the mellow side of Greek life, while still being fun and bright. This theme says you are laid back and ready to have a chill/fun night with your amazing new members. 


Carnival/Circus

Games and prizes anyone? A Carnival or Circus bid day theme shows that your sorority is not afraid to bring out their inner child. With candy, popcorn and plenty other carnival themed food and games, this is a fun way to get to know your new members. Having a Circus themed bid day shows that you are fun, energetic and really sweet while at the same time ready to have fun and not care who sees.



The Classic Sorority Theme

You don’t need a theme to help your new members have the best bid day ever. Your theme is your sorority and the amazing sisters you have. By not having a theme, you are daring to stand out. You are welcoming your new members into the greatest sisterhood they will ever experience, and the only theme you need is that of your sorority colors.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
