Hey Crystal,

Sending more good vibes your way!:D

Michelle

I totally and completly understand that one. my mom never liked the idea of me rushing the first time and I cant even let her know im going through this time b/c shes threatened to take away my college tuition..and w/o her paying for school well Id be in some big trouble. lol She just thinks that its too much money and a waste of it at that. but of course she was never that much of a social and outgoing person like I am and she never did things like this when she was in school. she had me at 20 so she didnt really have time for things like that it was me school and her marriage. so I dont expect her to really understand I just wish that she would keep an open mind sometimes and let me do what i want to do w/o the bitching lol.

Good Luck! You will both find your places :)

(sidenote: My parents got a letter from AST after I was pledged talking about how they could be involved and whatever. I dunno how other orgs work but you might want to put your address down as your school one, if you want to ensure no letters get sent home before you have a chance to tell your mom. Just a thought if you choose not to tell your mom that you are rushing.)

Summer school, which was supposed to help raise my GPA, actually HURT my GPA. Damn history class... :mad: It's still high enough to rush, but talk about a blow! I'm so upset with myself for that... I got A's in the other 2 classes though.

I'm getting more excited as it gets closer. I've been keeping a journal so I don't drive everyone crazy by talking about it continuously. I found some shoes, thank God, and am waiting to hear back about who my rho sigma is.

wow I need to turn in my recruitment application I guess huh. woo I have it around here somewhere if my mother didnt see it and throw it away :mad: oh well....youre going to have to let me know who your rho chi is and maybe we'll be in the same group! WHOO HOOO

Completely done shopping now...WHEW! It's coming soon! Right around 3 weeks!!!:D

Hey Crystal.....Do you know who your Rho Sigma is yet??!!!

No I don't! The waiting is driving me nuts. I just got my application in not TOO long ago, though, so it'll be a bit I guess. Do you know who yours is?

I have a night class the same night as Pref! :( I hate to leave class early, and I wouldn't go at all, but it is the first day and I lose my seat if I don't go. I just won't have that "I just got ready" feeling when I go to Pref. I'll have that "my brain is fried because I just came from class" feeling.

edit- I though it was one of those moster 500 person classes...sorry! :D
Careful leaving a small class early! Try talking to the prof, but first your Rho sigma (orwhat ever they're called)

My class doesn't end until 7:40, and it's a hard class to get into, as well as very small. I'm just going to have to leave early. That way, I've shown up so they can't take my name off the roll, and even if they count it as a tardy, I'll have to take it. What I'm wondering is, since it is a university sponsored activity, wouldn't it make sense that it would be excused? ;)

crystal, they definately will not excuse you from class. ask your rho sigma what you should do. depending on what time pref starts, the glo you would be going to first would be notified that you are coming right from class. they will not penalize you bc you had class!!!! you can always get your hair/makeup done before class, so all you have to do is change into a dress....and RUN to pref.

Having a class right before Pref should not be a problem. Every sorority stresses that academics come first--that's what you're in college for, right?--and won't hold having a class against you.

And I don't think I've posted to your recruitment thread yet, but GOOD LUCK!!!! You've got a lot of people pulling for you, and you sound like an awesome girl. Have fun in recruitment!

I definitely understand how the class situation can be at MTSU at times.

HOwever, you might consider e-mailing the professor in advance to explain your circumstances.

Also, I am guessing--just guessing--that you will not hear who your rho sigma is until at least August 1.

Again, good luck, and remember to just have fun. You will find your home sweet home!
;)

I am probably the most impatient person I know. Waiting does nothing but make me nervous and irritate me. Oh wait, I just realized that tomorrow is August 1. I'm an idiot.
Well, for anyone keeping a countdown, rush is 2 weeks from tomorrow!!! :eek: :D
