Set 1-Day 2
 

Ok, here's how it went today. I'm having a GREAT time and can't wait to see who I go back to tomorrow! Again in the order of how I liked them:

Plum: This is chapter is amazing!! I totally felt at home with all 4 of the girls I talked to. I had so much in common with all of them and I loved how each of them knew so much about their sisters, and were telling me how I had stuff in common with them. They were super nice and I really want to go back

Pear: This was the last house I went to, so I was really tired, but they totally perked me up! It turns out 2 girls I went to high school with (but didn't hang out with) are in this chapter. Everyone was really enthusiastic, and made me feel right at home.

Kiwi: I had some preconceived notions bout this house, but they didn't really match up with who I met. All these girls were so gorgeous and so friendly. The first girl that rushed me was super down to earth and nice. A couple of the other girls spent more time talking to each other than me, but they were talking about something I had brought up, and it didn't last long. I would be happy going back here and talking to more girls.

Peach: Again, I knew a little about this chapters reputation around campus, but 2 of the 3 girls didn't fit that at all. One of them lives off campus down the street from me! They were really nice.

Orange: This houses door song/routine was really original. I really didn't click with any of the girls that talked to me, and one asked another rushee I was with where she was from twice in, like, 5 minutes. The conversation kind of draged, but they were really friendly, and you could tell they were really trying to move the convo along.

Banana: this is the house I've liked the least so far. They are a really small chapter and I only got to talk to one girl the whole time. She was really nice and the conversation moved along quite well, but I couldn't really see myself there.

So that 's it! Tomorrow I go back to a max of 8 chapters. I'll find out tomorrow morning who they are. I'm really excited to talk to several of the chapters again, especially Plum, Grape, and Pear. Tomorrow is Philanthropy day and I will be wearing khaki capris with a lace flower cutout on the back, lower, right leg with a black v-neck t-shit and beige sandals. Alright time to go to sleep now.

Wait, was your Apple supposed to be Banana during the second day?

let's hear it for the fruit salad. with any luck at all, it will be perfect.

You're right I've fixed it! Thanks for noticing!
I had some crazy dreams lasst night! I'm really nervous to see who I get to go back to. Arrrgg, I just want to know now!!

I see you here, pinkkittie! What time are you supposed to find out your invites? We're all crossing our fingers that the favored fruit falls into your basket!

aj

In one hour. So I gotta go!

GOOD LUCK!!

I cant wait to see who invited you back today :) good luck!

It's sad how people get the complete wrong impression of all the chapters during recruitment! To hear my chapter called "conservative and quiet" is so ironic. That's totally not us!! Anyone that knows us at all knows that we know how to have a good time and that some of us are the loudest chicks. You just have to live here to know how freakin' loud the AZ AXO's are!

Tina's on the board ... hurry up girl .... we need our fix...

:-)

edited ... now she's gone .... where'd ya' go???

Re: Set 1-Day 2
 

Aaah, that happened to me once during recruitment last year, it was so embarassing! I was talking to this girl, and it was maybe the 6th party on the second day of Icewaters (making her like the 20th girl I had met in two days...) and I had JUST asked her what she had done during the summer, and I asked her again. She just kind of looked at me, and I apoligized for being kind of scatterbrained - I felt so bad! We sort of laughed it off, but I think she cut us - I never saw her again!

Very interesting...
I'm gonig to PM you.;)

AXWhoah...


I tried to PM you, but your
box is full.

Well, I got all 8 invites back, one from a house I didn't expect, but I'm glad I got to give them another chance! Here we go. It's in no real order this time because I can't decide who I like the best :p

Strawberry: This house was really nice. I didn't really feel a connection the first time, and 2 of the three girls I talked to seemed kind of shy, but One of the newer memebers talked to me and another rushee inbetween and was really excited. Her roommate was one of the girls I talked to the first day, and we ran into her again. Their craft was really cute.

Peach: This house is totally growing on me!I had sooo much in common with the first girl I talked to I didn't even get to do any of my craft! It turns out we will be moving into the same apt complex and she made me promise to come visit her. All the girls were so sweet!!

Mango: Oh my gosh, I love these girls!!! We did a really nice craft, but again, we talked so much that I didn't get a lot of it done. One of the girls I talked to the first day came over and sat with us and we got into a great conversation about the Rocky Horror Picture show (I used to be in it) that totally surprised me!!

Grape: Again, so in love with this chapter!! The girls I talked to today were super silly like me and totally in love with the dorky 80's!! All the girls I talked to before said hi to me, and I just felt sooo comfortable there. I really hope I get to go back. I really love their philanthropy, it's very close to my heart.

Plum: It's interesting how a different set of girls can change the way you feel about a chapter. Yesterday I was totally in love with this house. Today, I still really like them, but I'm not as ecstatic as I was before. They were very nice girls, I just didn't feel as connected as I did with the 4 I'd chatted with yesterday.

Pear: This house has amazing women!! All the girls I talked to were super friendly, funny, and the conversation felt so natural. We didn't reaaly do much for he craft (just cut out some felt stuff) but I loved talking to the women, and I got to chat with the girls from yesterday again.

Raspberry: I really liked this house the first time, but I'm not as into it today. The girls were nice, but the conversation didn't really flow, and I didn't feel comfortable there at all.

Blueberry: I can't beleive these girls invited me back! They were nice yesterday, but definitely seemed like the type that would never talk to me outside of rush. The girls that rushed me today (one in particular) seemed definitely more like me, very silly and fun, but again, all the girls seemed kinda the same, and I didn't really feel like I fit in there.

So today we narrow it down to five, and I hope that I get to back to at least Mango, Grape, and Pear. I figure hoping for three is pretty realistic. Tomorrow starts at 7am and I'm wearing a knee length, sleevless, "Jackie O" looking dress. Light blue with dark blue piping and beige wedge sandals. Thanks for your good wishes!!

PS-AXWhoa, I'm sure you guys are pretty crazy (I met some pretty enthusiastic sisters :) ) and I loved that you guys had your risk management chair speak. I hope when this is all over I get the chance to meet more of you, and yourself especially!!

Thanks for the update and our "fix"... did you get caught in the thunderstorm or were you done?
