Nope, we want the rest of them ;)

I have a feeling Carnation is going to be mighty busy these next few weeks!

We can't help it if they seem to gravitate towards AOII! ;) But really, here's hoping they find a great home!

I can't wait! This thread is going to get crazy! Hoping for at least one of two possible Sig Delts!

carnation 08-05-2005 02:54 PM

Okay, the little AU PNM leaves tomorrow! Best of luck, Tiger!!!

carnation 08-07-2005 12:46 PM

So Tiger is safely ensconced at Auburn now. Her mom has promised to email or call me with updates! Tomorrow recruitment starts and they have 2 eight-party days. I suppose that the girls will get their first invitations on Wednesday morning.

ETA: Whoa!:eek: I just went to the AU Panhellenic site and they have 80 Pi Chis!

ASUADPi 08-08-2005 02:33 PM

WOO HOO!!!!!

A CARNATION FAMILY RUSH THREAD!!!!!

I'm so excited.

Good luck to all the girlies and I hope they have a wonderful time.

carnation 08-10-2005 10:39 PM

Yea for Tiger! Her mom just told me that they got their invites last night about 11 and that she was invited back by all 16! She went to 8 parties today and will go to 4 tomorrow and get invitations at 9 PM. And darn! Her mom doesn't remember the names of any of the groups she's returning to except Alpha Chi (a great aunt was one) and KD.

She can return to up to 6 for Thursday's parties. I asked her mom to pleeaasse write down where she's going!

carnation 08-10-2005 10:48 PM

That happened back in the day when I was rushing! The rush counselor came in our rooms at 3 AM with our invitations and we were so worn out from parties and waiting that we dragged ourselves up, read them, and dropped back into the beds until the next morning. When we woke up, we didn't believe it had happened except that there were the invitations on the floor.

Handing out invite lists at night? WOW! When I went through at A&M, the sororities turned in their lists at night, but the girls didn't get their invite lists until early the next morning. Then they did accept/regret right then.

It is really interesting to hear how things are done at other big southern schools!

BTW- Glad her rush is going so well so far!!! :)

That's how I remember mine being too........

I envy Auburn's website and their fantastic photo updates.

I hope carnation's Tiger continues to have a great recruitment and best of luck to all the houses!!!

carnation 08-11-2005 07:59 PM

Waiting to hear Tiger's returns later tonight...in the meantime, Scarlet's mom emailed me that they moved her into the dorm at Valdosta! Recruitment won't be until September 1.

I've told the 2 UGa PNMs that I really, really want daily updates!

I totally will... I only know one of them well, so I'm hoping that the other four will at least call my sister with an update or two. :)

carnation 08-12-2005 05:46 PM

Update!

Today is 6-party day and Tiger is going to AOII, Phi Mu, Sigma Kappa, DZ, Tri Delt, and one other that her mom forgot. She has to pick up invitations for prefs tomorrow very early and choose 3!

Maybe the other will go DG! ;) Out of 7 between mine and carnation's there's a pretty good chance that at least ONE could be an SDT. One of my girls is an SDT legacy, too...

pinkyphimu 08-13-2005 08:28 AM

carnation...you are amazing! i could never keep up with all of these stories!!! thanks for the updates...and keeping my fingers crossed for all of the girls!

I want to see at least one SDT this rush season! 2 of carnation's girls could go SDT so it would be nice, even better now that your telling me one of yours is a legacy. You always here of girls going DG, DZ etc I want SDT! Selfish, maybe a tad but still :p

steelercutie 08-13-2005 04:59 PM

I was up at UGA today for rush at AGD and the girls were all so great! Hopefully the rest of rush will go well....DPhiE dropped out of rush due to only get 1 member last year so only 11 parties today instead of 12 and 6 tomorrow.

That's so sad for DPhiE. :( I hope that rush goes well for all the other chapters.
