May 27th:
This is my last daily journal!!! I literally don’t know how to handle that information. Looking at the document I have been writing these on so I could check my word count is so weirdly surreal. I have been feeling like I am just going to be a pledge forever and be constantly stuck in this stagnant state but we are so close to crossing that I can’t even comprehend it.
I studied all day today for oral finals and was pacing my apartment repeating everything so at this point my roommates could tell you the entire greek alphabet and the frat’s purpose. I got a workout in just to destress and feel a little more accomplished for the day and then headed to my oral final which I feel like went well surprisingly. Afterwards, we all headed to written finals which went well also.
I don’t think I have ever had a more chaotic seven weeks in my life - I have never experienced such a wild rollercoaster of emotions, from wanting to cry because of the stress to being so incredibly and mind blowingly happy with my pledge class and bigs. I have hated and loved pledging with my entire being and I am honestly overwhelmed with what has happened in this quarter. For the rest of the night I am finally going to have a self-care night - I want to watch a movie, paint my nails and not think about work for the rest of the day.
I don’t even know how to end my final daily journal, I have been able to pour so much emotion and weird things about my day into these I feel like there is no way to sum it up. I think the actives said it best when they said pledging is one of the best moments of your life that you never want to happen again. I had my doubts about that statement in the beginning of the pledging quarter, but I can say now I wholeheartedly believe it.
