smile hon...
you are so still in the game.
relax and enjoy the rest and just see what happens.
three is a terrific number.
lol

Remember Schoolhouse Rock? "Three is a magic number." Stay positive - we're all rooting for you!

PKTKKG 01-21-2004 09:57 AM

Remember to keep an open mind and enjoy yourself. Three houses is great to choose from, and keep in mind that in most cases, you can be happy wherever you make your mind up to be happy. All sororities offer the same basic things in membership although there are some differences in approach, policies, etc.

Just keep that open mind, have fun, ask questions, show interest, and be yourself. We have all been there, I was cut heavily at the beginning of my rush because I rushed as a junior, and we know how it feels. We love you - keep your chin up and smile. :)

Congrats on your invites! I hope everything goes well on Friday at the parties and that you find more and more to like about each group!

Since I don't know who the groups are, I'm rooting for Leo since that's my sign!

Sister Havana 01-21-2004 01:20 PM

Congrats on your three invites and good luck on Friday! (It must be agonizing waiting so many days in between!)

Mandelion 01-21-2004 01:24 PM

Thanks for all the kind words guys!!
Looking back I was pretty shocked about being cut by several groups last night. But afterawards I sat down and did some research on the groups I'm going back to, and reread my notes.

This isn't bad, not bad at all :).
I'm really excited about this weekend!!!! Themes is the most fun night with skits and singing, and more time to get to know these girls. Should be a ton of fun.

HotDamnImAPhiMu 01-21-2004 02:06 PM

huh, I don't see the problem at all -- you seemed to like these 3 groups, and after all, you can only pick ONE at the end!

Congratulations on a great rush so far, and keep us posted!

PKTKKG 01-21-2004 02:13 PM

So glad you are looking forward to it! Have a great time and those of us who are addicted to recruitment stories thank you very much for sharing.

rainbowbrightCS 01-21-2004 02:25 PM

see, it is quality of quanity.... I think that this will make it easier for you for this week end. These were your favoriter groups... who cares if a group that you were not feeling the love with dropped you... Did you really want to go there?

33girl 01-21-2004 03:31 PM

Mandy -

if some of the groups weren't as "into" philanthropy round don't let that deter you. It is still a new thing in rush and some philanthropies, while they are wonderful, are really hard to translate to an interactive activity with women you don't know that well.

You have such a great attitude - that will take you far! :)

You're so right about that too. I remember Aries kept on asking about me, and we'd talk about that. Sometimes I get so caught up in making decisions and getting to know them that I forget they're trying to get to know me too.

Optimist Prime 01-21-2004 04:04 PM

Good Luck

Glitter650 01-21-2004 04:07 PM

Keep having fun !!! and keep having that open mind it will definitely help you out in the end :D

Wow... I'm so pumped! Good luck!:D

Mandelion 01-24-2004 06:22 PM

*UPDATE*
 
I found out why they changed it from Rho Chi to Rho Delta!!!
Apparently Rho Chi is a pharmaceutical fraternity.
Check it out here

But on to more important things:
Both parties were just gorgeous, I almost cried, like 20 times today. I'm positive of my first choice, but I feel like I could still be very happy with the 2nd.
My Rho Deltas will be by tomorrow morning between 7 and 9. Then, we will meet at 9:30 to walk down to Bid Call Out.

I'm SO EXCITED!!! :D

Xylochick216 01-24-2004 06:25 PM

Congrats and good luck :) It sounds like you are very happy! let us know how it goes!

rainbowbrightCS 01-24-2004 07:13 PM

I am so excited for you. I hope you can get to us tomorow so we can know where you have your home.

PKTKKG 01-24-2004 07:35 PM

That is wonderful news! I can't wait to hear what happens for you tomorrow! Thanks for letting us know how today went, and we will be so happy for you tomorrow!!!!

mmcat 01-24-2004 08:01 PM
