It can spread anything that kissing can. If you're *that* type of girl, sharing a little lipgloss is probably not a big deal.;)

Having Mono or Meningitis doesn't mean you are 'that type of girl'. Many people are actually carriers of these type of infections. Meaning, you can 'have' Mono and give it to your friends/boyfriend/family members without showing symptoms or having the infection harm you in any way. My friend is a carrier, as her boyfriend got it shortly after they got together. He only shares drinks with her, and she is his second girlfriend and she doesn't have it however.

I don't know how likely meningitis is to spread that way.

Are we talking stick gloss, wand gloss or pot gloss?

I feel like I just switched to the Discovery Channel instead of the Entertainment Channel! :)

But the Discovery Channel is the Entertainment Channel! Or is that just me? Ha ha.

Yes, I realize that. I wasn't being serious.

Well I actually know people who are serious about that type of thing. No offense to you, though. :] I'm just a discovery channel nerd.

Either way, back to your regularly scheduled recruitment story!

I promised Dora that I would not give any specifics about her parties until recruitment was over. That being said I wanted to tell everyone about the CUTEST shirts they wore the first day. The shirts were Garnet;) and they had a charm bracelet design. Each charm represented a different chapter. A lyre for Alpha Chi, an owl for Chi-O,a lion for ADPi, a quatrefoil for Phi Mu, a dolphin for Tri- Delt, a turtle for DZ, a cresent moon for Gamma Phi, a key for Kappa, a crown for Zeta and what appears to be a leaf or a flower for KD. I would attach a picture, but my daughter's nametag would be in it and I want her identity to remain secret. Also in the story Artie and Mr Schuester are phantom chapters, they only existed to throw everyone off her school. I have typed up her impressions for the first two rounds and will post them when recruitment ends. Today is the first day of classes, so no recruitment. Hope everyone has a great day!:D

Sounds really cute! Excited to read more about Dora's recruitment :)

Looking forward to here more of Dora's story.

Go ADPi!

Today is Prefs, thank goodness. I am not sure I can handle any more stress and I am just the parent. Go Dora! Have fun at your parties!:)

Since today is bid day it is safe to now post Dora's story. Going into rush she had no opinions about any of the chapters. She went in with an open mind. That being said she hoped to get a bid from a house that put an emphasis on academics. Dora went to college for an education and not to party.
First Impressions

KURT- Dora loved Kurt. She was introduced to the President. She felt the conversations went really well here. She really wants to be invited back to Kurt.

BRITTANY- The conversations were awkward here. The Brittany girls found out she was in a certain campus activity and tried to tell her exactly what she should do with this activity and she was turned off by this. She felt they were trying too hard to Rush her.

MIKE- She loved Mike, they paired her with a girl who had her same major and identical summer job. They had a lot in common and the conversation flowed.

MERCEDES-She was already in love with Mercedes prior to Rush. She had seen the inside of their house during Scholar's weekend and they mentioned how they got together every week
to watch Glee. They had her at Hello!

QUINN- She loved Quinn. She said she felt a sensation that she really belonged here.

SANTANA- This was her first house of the day and it was very awkward. The girl kept talking about all their social activities. She kept asking Dora if she had questions. Dora asked about their campus GPA and the girl said they had one of the highest GPA's( Dora later found out this was not true, they infact had one of the lowest) :eek:

RACHEL- Dora really like Rachel. She was double rushed here, but she was able to meet several girls who she had things in common with.

PUCK- She said Puck was just average. She did not have an opinion one way or the other.

FINN-She was also lukewarm about them. She would welcome an invite to get to know them better.

TINA- She did not feel a connection to Tina.

They could go back to 8 on the second day, so she ranked Brittany and Tina at the bottom.
