My Friend's HOLLYWOOD Recruitment!

OK...I went back and read the past stories I wrote and it does make me embarrassed. Basically someone slapped me (figuratively) and said to not be such a dumb*** about sorority etiquette anymore so I've tried to change my attitude just a little and I really REALLY want to tell you guys about my friend's recruitment. She just went through AT MY SCHOOL!!! and gave me permission. So I'm super excited, what do you say? Will you give me a chance? OR BETTER YET, WAIT AND READ AND DECIDE!! (Sorry, I'm really excited lol)

The groups ARE:

Malibu
Venice Beach
Sunset Blvd
Paramount Studios
Rodeo Drive
LAX
Beverly Hills

This story however did NOT take place in LA. My friend is NOT a legacy to any groups. However many of her friends (at other schools) joined sororities, so she knew of a few and was pretty excited. Going into rush, she did have some initial impressions about groups based on gossip, but what can you do? I shamelessly plugged my sorority all first semester.

HER FIRST DAY!!!

Malibu - Going in, admittedly she had heard of this group in a negative way. She couldn't believe people said what they said!! She noticed this group was considerably smaller than all the others, but everyone was nice! She was polite, and said the conversation flowed, but nothing overly special stuck out to her. She admitted she wasn't comfortable with this group's reputation.

Venice Beach - She hadn't heard about this group as much. She said this group of girls seemed down to earth. She remembers saying she was taller than a lot of the girls, LOL! Overall, she said the conversation flowed and she had a pleasant time. She didn't really express a strong feeling to go back, but said she had liked these girls.

Sunset Blvd - She HAD heard about this group going in. People had told her they were really fun to hang out with. She told me she loved this group. They seemed both chill and hilarious. They talked a lot about Greek Week and fraternity relations but in an easygoing way. She mentioned a lot of the girls looked really cute, like cute style and stuff. She wants to be in this sorority!!

Paramount Studios - She said this group had more energy than all of the other groups combined! They were just all smiles but super nice and they seemed really interested in her! She said she tried to smile a lot and her mouth hurt. She liked this group.

Rodeo Drive - She said this group had a very different feel from all the sororities in a good way. She said they seemed super laidback. She said this sorority had a specific reputation, that was neither good nor bad just "what it was" and it was something she was. She felt comfortable here and wanted to come back.

LAX - She went into this group sort of ambivalent and left the same way. She said everyone was nice but she just didn't feel a connection. She also said she felt strongly about almost all the philanthropies, except this one (not that it's not great!!). She didn't want to go back here, to be honest.

Beverly Hills - She was super excited to go here because she had heard about them from EVERYONE. They are very popular here. All the girls were sweet and she said their fabulous rep was well deserved. She would love to go back here. She said a lot of people want this group.

And that is the end of day 1!

She said this is how she ranked them
1 Sunset Blvd
1 Beverly Hills
1 Rodeo Drive
1 Venice Beach
1 Paramount Studios
2 LAX
3 Malibu

Let me know if you want more!! Or if you can guess which sorority is mine!!

Dear Splash,

Take your creative writing field trips elsewhere.

Thank you,

I'm sorry if you don't want to hear it. :( However, this story, as well as my other 2, ARE TRUE.
