Letter day 1!
So everyone, I just got back from my very first day of RUSH! I am feeling a little sick (sore throat:( ) and excited for the remainder of the weekend.
Today I visited: Peach Pineapple Watermelon Grape Orange Peach This house was really cute-- their decorations were done in my favorite color and all the girls were dolled up! These girls were very sweet and I knew one of the girls who rushed me from a class last year. I would like to go back to this house and I'd be a little bummed if they cut me. Pineapple Even though I was trying to go into rush with an open mind, I thought I wouldn't like this house, but guess what? I totally liked this house! These girls are really pretty, but are also very intelligent. I felt like I really clicked with a couple girls here, though I'm kind of setting myself up to be cut from this house just because it's really competitive. Watermelon Yeah so this house was interesting. I didn't click at all with the first girl who rushed me, and the second girl who rushed me asked a really embarassing question (something that you would definitely not talk about at rush or pretty much anywhere at all!) so I answered it the best I could. We laughed it off, but I think that episode ruined my chances at this house. I really liked the third girl I talked to though. I would like to give this house another chance, but I don't know if I'll be invited back because of the first two conversations. Grape Grape is a local sorority at our school that gets to participate in only the first round of formal rush. The girls here are really sweet, but this isn't the place for me. Orange I liked this house more than I did last semester during rush. It was really loud though and I could hear almost nothing my rushers asked! All of the girls I met were very sweet . Their dance was also really cute-- I'm not sure yet if I could see myself here, but I want to come back again. If I had to rank just the houses I visited today, it would probably go: Pineapple Peach Orange Watermelon (Grape) |
Sounds like you had a blast!! Just keep an open mind, because you never know where you'll end up (trust me! lol) A house that might not seem u, right now, may just be your best choice...ya know?
Well hope all goes well! Take Care |
Letter day 2!
I know that you are all beside yourselves with anticipation, so I am updating on letter day 2! Today was definitely a blast and even though I now have a full-fledged cold, I'm trying to cope and make it through rush!
Tonight I went to: Strawberry Banana Mango Apple Strawberry I liked this house. They had the cutest dance and I think I liked their house (not the chapter, the physical house itself) the best out of all so far. I clicked pretty well with all of the girls I talked to, but I have this fear of not being invited back, because this is one of the houses I loved last semester that didn't invite me back. Banana I really liked this house a lot! The girls were so genuine and sweet and I definitely could see myself in this house. I liked everyone I talked to and their decorations were adoreable! Mango I love these girls!!! I had so much to talk about with every single girl and they all seemed so passionate about their philanthropy, which I also really loved! They all seem like really interesting people and I really really hope I get to come back. This is another house that I loved last semester and was dropped from, so I'm still expecting the worst... Apple These girls were really nice, but something about this house didn't really click as much as it did with the other houses. Cute girls, nice looking house but I don't know...we didn't have a whole lot to talk about, I guess. So I was randomly thinking about this on one of our breaks: Tonight we ranked six first choices, 1 second choice and 1 third choice. I ranked: 1- Pineapple 1- Mango 1- Banana 1- Peach 1- Strawberry 1- Watermelon 2- Orange 3- Apple Tomorrow we go back to a maximum of 6 houses, wish me luck! |
OOh I almost missed this!!
I hope you have a great day tomorrow!!! :) Good luck! |
oh great!....now i crave a fruit salad!!best wishes that you get your top choices!!
|
Good luck - I hope you we get invites to your "Favorites".:)

craft day
Well, I have some very disappointing news...I was cut from almost all the houses and was only invited back to two today.:( I'm definitely bummed because I felt so at home in some of the houses and I just can't understand why I wasn't invited back. Today I went back to Peach and Apple.
Peach I liked Peach a lot better today than I did yesterday. I really felt like I connected with all of the girls I talked to and their craft was really cute. I'm not sure that I really fit into this house, but I really like these girls. I really hope I don't get cut from this house tomorrow, I'll be bummed. Apple Apple was ok. I really didn't get a chance to talk to the girls though because they paired us off (two PNMs to every one Apple) and the other PNM I was paired with was really chatty and basically just talked the whole time. They seem sweet. Even though I only went back to two houses, we still had to rank all of the houses in case some girls drop. We ranked four first choices and then a second, third and fourth choice. I ranked: 1- Peach 1- Apple 1- Banana 1- Mango 2- Pineapple 3- Orange 4- Watermelon |
Good luck Copacabana!! I stuck it out...I hope you do too!!
|
Good luck sweetheart!!
I know things are tough but keep smiling! |

Copa, don't worry about being cut, I know it is a bummer (TRUST ME! lol) but it will all work out for the best!! Take Care and keep your head up. |
Thanks for your encouragement, it really means a lot. I just feel so discouraged...
|
sweetie....
call it a road trip. you don't know for sure where or how it will end, but you continue for the curiousity of the moment. definitely finish the game and then breath deeply and see how you feel. right now is not the time to do anythng like dropping. tomorrow could be a much better day. lol {huggles} |
Hmmm... how can I make all those cuts sound like a positive rather than a negative...
I guess try and figure that maybe this is just a shortcut to your new home. Perhaps Peach or Apple are your home and you just don't see it yet. You've only just begun, so don't give up yet. If not... check on Grape, the local. (Sorry, I'm partial to locals cuz I am in one and love it.) Formal recruitment may not be their strong suit since they don't see it all the way through. I don't know many that do, so maybe if they have COB events, check them out in a less formal atmosphere. Same with the others I suppose. Anyway... keep at it. You'll be fine. |
