Hey everyone!! Thought I'd post (since i got like 10 IMs from people asking what happened today and I know how addicted you are to the threads so here we go!)

This morning was orientation...we met our Gamma Chi's and met the girls we went to the parties, etc with. My GC is soo sweet and very helpful! The girls I went through the parties with, though a lot of them freshman, were really down to earth and nice girls and I'm so excited to see where they end up also! I met sooo many wonderful girls today. Rush is definitely a great way to make contacts!

Okay on to the parties! I went to 14 different sororities today, I'm not going to go into too much detail about ones individually since today (so long! 2-8:30) was open house, but I will add that there were some groups that were very interested in finding out who I was, what I was interested in and enjoyed being there themselves, and then there were others that made me feel like "oh great another group, here we go" and were acting fake, I could definitely tell that off the bat. Most of the girls I talked to I had something in common with. I was introduced to a lot of the presidents and VPs and recruitment chairs, which I figured to be a good sign. Though many of the girls were exausted (AND showing it, complaining a lot, etc) I was chipper and upbeat and stuck with it in a totally positive attitude till the very end. I was complemented on having a great attitude throughout the process. Tomorrow is the first invitation response where we find out who cut us and which parties we will be attending on Monday. So thats all for now! I'll post more tomorrow!

i am so happy for you. its awesome that you had a good attitude. thank God i only have to deal with three groups. lots of luck to you!!

It sounds like you had an amazing day! Good Luck tomorrow!

Good to hear from you, Pam! I'm looking forward to see where you'll be going on Monday! Good for you for staying upbeat!! I'm sure it showed :)

I'm glad you made it through such a long day with a great attitude! I imagine everyone - pnm's and sisters alike are exhausted by the end of the day! You will be remembered at those last parties for being so upbeat! Hope you have a blast at the next set of rounds!
Edited for typos! It's late, ok?:)

Pam, I'm glad you survived Round 1 with a big smile and I am thrilled to hear you got such a great reception by getting to meet so many key players (presidents and recruitment chairs).

We're all here if you need anything! :)

Okay everyone...here we go!
 

I got my invites today...I got cut pretty heavily because I'm a junior and I totally understand that. I got asked back to 4 houses and I'm happy with the decision! Its kind of cool because now I really feel wanted. After the first round of cattle heards and everything, they liked me the person, so I'm very excited about that. I'm not sure which parties I go to tomorrow, if I go to all of them on the same day or if they are broken up, BUT looking over the notes I jotted down in my PNM book, I remembered enjoying meeting the girls a lot. After a LONG rush yesterday, I was so tired I just passed out on my bed lol. Anyway!

I was asked back to...

Alpha Chi Omega
Alpha Xi Delta
Delta Zeta
Pi Beta Phi

I'm going to name them using Seinfeld names lol. Okay I'm gonna use Kraemer, George, Elaine and Jerry....and they will be in no particuluar order :D I'll post later!

My fingers are crossed for you! Have a great time, and I hope you end up where you want to be!

Good luck! Can't wait to hear tonight's update!

Something tells me that I am not going to feel so refreshed and rejuvenated when I wake up at 5am tomorrow morning! Blame it on the rush threads!

I hope that you have a wonderful time and that you find a wonderful sisterhood with whichever organization you choose! (Secretly hoping for one --- guess which??) Be careful out there and remember to be true to who you are!

Hope you have a wonderful time tonight! I can't wait to hear what Jerry, Kramer, Elaine and George are up to!

That's interesting...none of those groups have chapters at my school, lol! Oh well, I do know they have a wonderful national reputation!

Best of luck!

Pam, I'm so glad to see that you're still upbeat and that you were asked back to a certain place ;) Which ever place you choose, I'm thrilled for you!!

Re: Okay everyone...here we go!
