Penguintrax's Babysitter's FSU Recruitment
 

My sitter is going through Recruitment at FSU this week. She had fabulous times at the houses during round 1 and just got her invites for round 2.

She got invited back to 10 of 14 and was required to cut 1.

The houses she is returning to are:

apple
banana
grape
kiwi
plum
pineapple
peach
pear
orange

Her favorites so far (although she likes all of them) are apple, banana, and pineapple. She is very excited for philanthropy round today and having more time to get to know the sisters at all the houses.

Thanks for the info! You're my favorite resource for FSU Greek Life! Good luck to your sitter!

i love all of the UF and FSU threads that are popping up!! i wish her well

Good luck to your babysitter! :)

Hmmm...no strawberries? ;)

Figured that'd be too obvious. :D

Let her know that we are all wishing her good luck this week!

I will, and thank you! I'm living vicariously through her this week - she's having such a good time!

I drove by the houses today as I was on campus for another purpose and was disappointed that none of the events had started yet for today. I was hoping to spot this year's crop of PNMs!

hooray!!!
 

thank you barb, for feeding the need. best of luck to your babysitter!!

ps: now i want fruit salad!!!

hurray for her!!!

You're a woman after my own heart!! :D

Please wish your babysitter the best of luck, and hope that she has fun this week!

Wish your sitter the best of luck from all the GC ladies, and thank you SO much for feeding the addiction to these recruitment threads! :D

fingers and toes crossed that she has a wonderful time...and things continue to be terrific.

Wish your sitter the best of luck during recruitment. I hope she has a wonderful time and finds her home.

Good luck to her... :)

Uhm, Barbara, having you as a resource is . . well . . . a major advantage.

Like having a pro-coach give you tips on trying out for High School sports.

Well, James, I hope you meant that as a compliment...?!

She's a very bright girl, she had lots of stuff figured out before I even knew she was going to go through recruitment. That's not to say I didn't give her a few tips, but I also did my best to get letters of introduction to her from as many houses as I can. She's keeping a very open mind. In fact, although she was surprised to have gotten cut from 3 houses, she said (and I quote) - "At least I know where I stand and can concentrate more on the 9 houses I'm going to for Philanthropy". She'll be an asset to any house that is lucky enough to bid her.

what a great attitude she has! she definately will be an asset to any group!

Definitely a compliment. Like having St. Peter give you tips on making it into heaven. (maybe I shouldn't have chosen a sports metaphor before)

Since, you are like the Patron Saint of Sorority Rush :)

Can there be Jewish saint? ROFL....

Thanks, James. You made my night. http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de//kiss.gif

Today's update! She got invites back to 8 of 9 and accepted invites back to:

apple
grape
pineapple
peach
orange

Apple, Pineapple and Peach are current top three (in no particular order) although she said she's grateful for all her invites and would love to go to prefs at any of the 5 houses. She's also WAY excited to see the skits and talk more with the sisters.

Alright! Go babysitter!

barb,
 

of course there can be jewish saints! haven't you heard of st. schlomo?

Ok, I am absolutely dying to know how this will turn out for her...

perfect...just perfect...
we know she knows the drill.
just know we're thinking about her, crossing fingers and whatever else works.
good luck...keep us posted.

wow! that is awesome! i can't wait to hear which fruit she picks.

Prefs...
 

I found out from her father that she went to prefs at:

grape
pineapple
orange

I don't know if apple & peach didn't invite her or if she declined an invite.

Bid day is today. As soon as I know to where she accepted a bid, I will post. I'm sure she's very busy with her new sisters!

HOW EXCITING!!!

Best wishes to your sitter!!!

we will be waiting!!!

Yay! We get to find out tonight! We do, right? Don't these girls carry cell phones so they can get the word out to us as they're running to their new homes? Is that too much to ask?? :cool:

a little while longer perhaps...

Penguin! We addicts need an update! :D

Well, I kind of know something, but until I get confirmation from her, I won't post. It's just not fair to her, plus I'm not sure if the information I have is accurate. I'm hoping that she'll return my (multiple) phone messages tonight. Today was the first full day of classes.

Okay, we can wait a little longer ... hope everything's okay ... overall, how did FSU rush go?

I just want to say that every dang time I see this I think it says Penguintrax's Babydaddy's FSU Recruitment.

Finally...!
 

I confirmed tonight that she is now a proud and happy...

ORANGE!

I'm mean, aren't I?

That would be a recruitment thread worth reading. ;)

oh, for the love of pete!!
 

come on barb!!!
