Fall 09 UCF!
 

Hi Everyone!

I won't be posting a "live" per say but I just wanted to put out my code. I'm very excited, it starts tomorrow! I’m considered a Senior with all my credits but still have a year and half left. I know going in I’ll be cut from some chapters and I’m ok with that, But I’m hoping I’ll find a home somewhere! :) In no order here is my code. Yes I know Pluto isn’t a planet but I still remember my science book having it as one so in my mind it still is haha :)

Neptune
Saturn
Mars
Venus
Jupiter
Mercury
Uranus
Pluto-even not a planet anymore L
Moon
Earth

Go knights!

good luck redsweetpea-please, please keep an open mind and give all the chapters a chance. and do let us know how it all ends up.

Good luck! and just for the record, Pluto is a planet. :)

Good luck! Go Venus!

Hi everyone! Here is an update for you, recruitment is almost over! So i just wanted to put up my story for you and then will update soon.


The first day was just an information meeting on what greek like is all about and the week ahead. So on with the week J


Day Two-
This day was Ucf Day and we went to visit all ten chapters.

We first went to Moon I was very nervous and didn’t expect the girls to sing to us or us to them but it was fun. I loved their door song it was so cute. I talked to three girls but I didn’t really feel like I clicked with any of them. I also couldn’t hear them very well so that may have been the reason why.

Then we went to Mars and here I knew two girls but didn’t see them, I felt very comfortable here and the girls that rushed me were easy to talk to. We had some things in common which was nice and it made the time go faster.

The third place we went to was Saturn and while I liked this house and the rooms were really cute, I didn’t feel as though I had a lot in common with the girl that was rushing me. I don’t really remember their door song either.

We then went to Uranus this house was a favorite and the girls were all so pretty and very sweet. They seemed the most excited out of the chapters we saw so far. Their door song as super cute as well.


At Earth, the girls were so sweet and they seemed to have so much fun with each other while singing their door song. The girl that rushed me was very nice and I really thought that this chapter could be for me.

At Pluto we were double rushed and it was very hard to talk to the rusher, but it did make time goes faster as me and my fellow rushee would play off each others comments haha, but I really did not see myself at Pluto. It just did not seem like the place for me. I didn’t feel like I got to know the rusher at all.

Then we went to Venus and the first girl that rushed me was very nice, but the second that bumped me was a little strange like she didn’t really feel like being there, and the third girl that bumped me was super sweet and very laid back. I wasn’t sure about Venus but I did want to find out more.


At Jupiter we were double rushed again, but it was very awkward and she didn’t ask me many questions and I couldn’t really get any of my questions answered. The second girl that bumped us was nice, but again I felt like I didn’t find out about the chapter or the girl at all.

In Neptune the girl that rushed me was great, she was very laid back and was easy to talk to, she told me about the chapter and how much fun it was to be a Neptune and all the things that they do. I felt very comfortable there and felt very at home, I didn’t really want to leave.

The last was mercury and while the girl that rushed me was sweet I felt no big connection there and it wasn’t a fit for me, by the end we were talking to another pnm and rusher but I felt they were talking to the other pnm than me. The rooms were very cute here but I still did not feel like I fit in at all.

Tomorrow is Bid Day! How was prefs Redsweetpea?

it was good, I liked it, everyone was very sweet.:) will update the rest of the week tom and will tell the results of bid day!

Heres day two!

Day Two
The Next day was Philanthropy day. My Rho Gamma called me in the morning and I was terrified that I was cut from all but it was just to tell me that I had to come at a later time. Once that heart attack was over I found out I was invited back to Neptune, Venus and Pluto. I was a little bummed that I didn’t get invited back to some others but I knew that it would happen so it was ok, I got over it quick and decided to see what the others were about and get to know them better.

At Neptune the girl that rushed me was very nice and talked to me and another pnm about the philanthropy and how they help the philanthropy and what events they do for it. We made a craft and talked about the organization’s events. The video was informative and I learned a lot about the philanthropy.

At Venus, the girl that rushed me was super sweet and made me feel very comfortable and I was happy I decided to find out more, the video was so sweet and made me all teary eyed and the philanthropy was important to me personally. I thought the craft we did was super cute and it was fun and easy to do. I felt really at home here.

At Pluto, we were double rushed again and the craft we made was easy to do, and while I thought the philanthropies were amazing. But I still didn’t feel very connected to the girls that rushed us.

Day Three

Today was Video day and I was invited back to Neptune, Venus, and Pluto.

I first went to Venus and once again the girls who rushed me were very sweet, I was bumped to about four or five girls I think. The video just showed how much fun they have with each other and how strong a sisterhood they have. It just made me want to be apart of it.

I then went to Neptune and their video while showing how much fun they have and a good sisterhood, but the girl that rushed me was hard to talk to and there were lags in the conversation. I did like this chapter so I wanted to give it another chance.

Pluto was the last chapter of the day. I was double rushed again, and while the girl that rushed me was amazing, I still felt nothing. Their were video was just lackluster, and it seemed like they were trying to hard. I must say that I was happy when the day was done. The next day was prefs and I was very nervous.

Pref Day
I was invited back to only one chapter, I was a little bummed that Neptune dropped me but was happy that Pluto did. But it was raining like crazy! I waited in my car for two hours or so because of the rain, and but at least I didn’t get gross from the rain.
So I went back to Venus and was ecstatic. I really wanted to be a part of this chapter and their sisterhood seems like one of the if not the strongest of all the chapters. I was bumped by three girls and all were very nice and sweet, and their ritual gave me goosebumps. I knew this was the place for me.


Today was bid day, and i will let you all know the results tomorrow, I'm super sleepy. night all :)
