I hope you wind up at my chapter, but I'm going to root for my favorite pair: Citizens of Humanity. :)

Good luck and go Heels!

Hey everyone! It's late here and I'm super exhausted but I thought I should update y'all since you've been so supportive! I had the time of my life tonight and I am SO glad I decided to go through rush.

I'm not going to go into detail, but I'm just going to say that I ADORED True Religions, Rock and Republic, MEK, and Joe's (I seriously DID NOT want to leave these houses at all, particularily Rock and Republic). Other than that, I can honeslty say that there was not a single house that I would be disappointed to return to--every chapter seems so, so strong!

Anyway, I will be sure to update again on Sunday after the Financial/Skit night!

P.S. Some horribly immature boys drove around campus and pegged all of the rush groups with water balloons. It was so awful--several girls and I walked into the MEK house soaking wet. :cool:

Ahhh, I'm rushing UNC too, and I'm so excited to read your full story!! Glad it's going well. :)

dad gum boys! don't worry about it though, i am sure that it has happened before, and the sorority members won't (and shouldn't) hold it against you.

I just have a nagging question that's been in the back of my mind all day. If a girl says that she "can't wait to see you tomorrow" is that dirty rushing or just tactless? It made me feel a little uncomfortable but I wasn't sure if it was techinically against the rules or not. Thanks!

Also, good luck to UNCLei, I can't wait to read your story! Yay for Tar Heel rush stories!

Good to hear that you are having a good time, keep us posted.

About the comment: It's not something members should say (in my opinion-- because she may or may not see you tomorrow) but it may have just been a nervous slip-up on her part. Take it with a grain of salt (and not as "Oh sweet, I'm for SURE coming back here!')

TarHeelHoney 09-05-2009 04:23 PM

I actually ended up putting that chapter in my bottom cluster (for unrelated reasons) but if I do end up returning, I will be on the lookout for any other things that make me feel uncomfortable. It's definitely not weird enough that I feel like I need to talk to my rush counselor about it. Thanks KSUViolet!

That phrase was one that was on our "no" list to say, but it can be REALLY hard to say goodbye sometimes, and it slips out. As far as I know, no one has ever used it as a dirty rush tool. Dirty rushing is usually a lot more explicit ("We love you." "I can't wait til you're an XYZ!" "I'll see you here on Bid Day!"). I bet that girl regretted it the moment it came out of her mouth, but couldn't figure out how to take it back.

Not dirty rushing, just a careless error. It's something we're instructed not to say, but sometimes, things slip out.

Agreed.

Isn't that, like, a crime?

DreamfulSpirit 09-05-2009 09:39 PM

Although I'm an NCSU alum (GO WOLFPACK!), its cool to hear a local story...or at least two for right now! Good luck!

UNCLei 09-05-2009 10:10 PM
