**informal rush Spring '03**
 
Ok, I'm sure a bunch of you are wondering what's going on!

Originally at the beginning of this term I thought about informal rush, and thought I wouldn't have the time because of programming classes... however, I have changed my major and really want to be part of a sisterhood here on campus!!! I miss being part of something bigger than you, ya know?

I'm very excited.. I had my first rush event last Sunday, and I was VERY nervous and VERY scared.. but when I got there, I realized there was really nothing to be nervous or scared about!

I had an AMAZING time meeting all the sisters and talking to them about their experiences with "ABC" sorority and college in general. The girls there were all so nice and SO down-to-earth!!!

We had lunch and dessert, and did a couple of 'icebreakers' and then we talked a lot more about all sorts of things, and it was so refreshing to see a group of girls who were all unique, but at the same time, so close.

Overall, I can pretty much sum it up in one word: AMAZING!!!

We were all invited to their intramural game that was scheduled this last Monday, but due to our recent winter storm, events were cancelled, and they are planning on picking things up this weekend or next week.

After the first event was over, a lot of the sisters gave me their contact info just in case I had any questions, and I hope that was a good sign! I've talked to a couple of the sisters since then, mostly asking a zillion questions about ABC and how ABC is involved on campus.

So there's my story.. I know how much you GC'ers love rush threads.. so I'll keep you updated!
:D ;) :)

update
 
Last night was a lot of fun :)

I was able to meet more sisters last night which was really cool and towards the end of the event, the place was buzzing with activity as the sisters were preparing for their composite pictures! Very exciting!

I think I'm the oldest PNM there, so that kind of makes me feel weird sometimes, but I'm still very excited and trying to make myself stand out in a good way (other than being the oldest one there :p ) !!! I still have a couple of years left since I just changed my major.. so I'm hoping that's a positive thing!

All the girls I've met are soooooo nice and friendly! This is going to sound kind of corny, but last night I dreamt I was part of 'ABC' sorority :p hehehe.. I'm such a nerd!!! ;)

Anyhow, that is my update for now!! I will keep you all posted!

Thanks again for all the support!!!

*editied for spelling :)

MoxieGrrl 02-28-2003 10:25 AM

You are so not a nerd!! What a nice dream to have :)

Keep your cool, texas*princess. It sounds like you made a lovely impression upon the sisters, had fun, and met new people. Just keep on, keepin' on.... :)

Good luck!!!

Yes! That is a positive thing. Be sure they know that! If they know you will be around a few more years and want to live in, it definitely evens the score between you and the younger girls. I repeat: be sure they know that!

texas*princess 02-28-2003 04:25 PM

Thanks DeltaBeta!

I got a PM asking which sororities are on my campus, so just for some extra info, the sororities on my campus in alphabetically order are:

Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Phi
Chi Omega
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Pi Beta Phi
Zeta Tau Alpha

I'm really not sure! The past couple of events I am been so super excited and talking/asking questions about other stuff, this completely slipped my mind! I am guessing it might be sometime the end of this week or sometime next week (which is the week before our spring break).

trisigmaAtl 03-03-2003 05:13 PM

thanks for the update!

i think it might be better not to know anyway, you can just enjoy the events and the sisters without having the thought of an impending bid day on your mind.

Good luck and have fun!!!:cool:
