kendra,
i know i told you this in several pm's, but DON'T worry!!!!!!! i know easier said than done right? :) there is an organization for everyone here. pm me if you need more advice. . .

I already PMd you, but I'll say it again. This applies to every woman, regardless of size, color, etc.

You are a beautiful unique individual gifted with special abilities that would be a credit to any group of women. Hold your head high and have a blast.

You know what I just realized.... I realized I'm going to probably spaz for the next month but when the first party starts on 9/12, I will be cool, composed and ready to wow everyone. :)

thx for letting me vent. :D

Hey, I'm honored!

But seriously...I know what you're going through, blueGBI. I always run through the "what ifs" before I do anything!! I'm sure you're right...as soon as the time comes, you'll be shining!

another quick question
 

I was wondering, since I'm rushing 20 sororities this fall, would it be a problem if I name the groups I was cut from so people will know who I'm out of the running for. It'll probably help me from gettting confused.

Re: another quick question
 

The not wanting rushees to name groups is more for their benefit/safety than ours..but if YOU feel comfy doing it, I don't think anyone will mind.

Re: another quick question
 

I don't see a problem with that - most girls on here do one of two things:

1) Tomorrow I'm going back to Ice Cream, Cookies, Candy, Pie, and Cheesecake. The houses that I dropped/got cut from are Chi O, Gamma Phi, Kappa, and ASA.

2) Tomorrow I'm going back to Ice Cream, Cookies, Candy, Pie, and Cheesecake. Those houses, in no particular order, are AST, Pi Pi, Sigma Kappa, Theta Phi Alpha, and Tri Delta.

It's really all about what you're comfortable with - rush threads are for you, not us! :D

gone 4 2 wks
 

So yeah, I'm gone for two weeks until 8/25 (for real this time). My free trial with AOHell is done and I dont feel like starting another one when I'm about to go back to school. So these next two weeks, I'm going to rest, chill, and finish up rush shopping. I can't wait to come back and read everyone else's rush threads!

Bye

Have a great time finishing getting ready, blueGBI! We can't wait to hear back from you! :)

enjoy your "preppin" time and get ready to have some fun.

Re: another quick question
 

Yeah, I think it's alright to name groups that cut you

I dont see why naming groups who are cut would be a problem. I would probably be easier for you and us both!

Have a good two weeks BlueGBI! See you soon!

bad news
 

I have some bad news....

I found out last week that my mom has MS. She has had it since 1990, but recently she has been having problems with her left leg and shes been falling a lot. Her doctor thinks that her MS is evolving from benign to RR (relaspe-recovery) MS. So, I have to pay for everything this fall. I have a job but I have bills to pay. I can afford sorority dues after the initiating semester (dues tend to be between 200-400) but I know I'll have to do a juggling act for the fall semester if I get a bid to a group because of the initiation fees, dues, and buying the pin and etc. I hope the extra fees arent too high this fall. However, I did get an extra job as a parking monitor during welcome week that pays $7.30 an hour (thats like heaven for a college student) so I know on my first paycheck of the semester I'll have some extra cash.

I can't wait to be back on 8/25 and to be able to read the rush stories of all of the other girls rushing! :D
