Greeklove10's Recruitment Story!
 
Hi everyone! My Recruitment starts within the next couple of weeks so I thought this would be a great time to start a new thread! I have been lurking on greekchat for a long time and I want to thank you all for the fabulous advice, I know it is really going to help me get through the week. I am going through Recruitment at a school where I know A LOT of girls. This has been great for me since I know girls in every chapter but 2, but it is also a disadvantage knowing the reputations of the chapters. That being said, I am going to keep a completely open mind and know that I am blessed if I find a sisterhood at the end of the week. I am obsessed with fashion so I thought I would name the chapters after designers.


Chanel
Gucci
Dolce & Gabbana
Michael Kors
Prada
Burberry
Tory Burch
Dior
Fendi
Valentino
Armani
Chloe

Again, I am keeping a completely open mind and going where my heart feels I should be. The greek women at my university are very smart and beautiful and I know that I will be lucky to be one. Thanks for reading, can't wait for Recruitment!!

EDIT: I almost forgot to mention that if you know the name of my school please don't give it away, I will probably say after Recruitment is over. I don't want to risk my chances- Thanks!

I'm not sure if that's the right foot to start your recruitment thread on.

greeklove10 08-10-2010 11:52 PM

Is that a little better?

sweetmagnolia 08-10-2010 11:58 PM

I definitely think so.

Rooting for Chanel or D&G!!:D Even though you know reputations, don't base a sorority off of it. The "bottom-tier" chapters may be a "top" chapter at another university. So who cares what people think. Just make sure you go in with an open mind and give every sorority a fair shot. Usually negative reps aren't true about a sorority anyway.

I just had terrible flashbacks.

Ok I'm better now. Good luck!

HAHA! Burberry. I miss that girl. lol...

I am not into designers, so I will cheer them all!

I'm rooting for Tory Burch. You picked a really pretty pink for her. =P

greeklove10 08-16-2010 06:14 PM

Thank you all! I'm so ready for Recruitment to start.. a lot of my friends are in the middle or done with it. I'm getting so anxious!

greeklove10 08-23-2010 11:13 PM

DAY 1: I don't think I have ever been so nervous for anything in my life. It was an extremely long day and totally not what I expected. The girls rushing you are just as nervous/if not more so it made it a lot better.

Chanel: The 2nd house I went to. The girl who picked me up I knew from middle school and she was pretty easy to talk to. She was the only one I spoke with and the conversation was really basic, nothing very in depth. Overall this house was just OK.

Gucci: The girl who picked me up I had never met before. She was really sweet but I could tell that we were polar opposites. After I talked to another girl I realized this was probably not the house for me.

Dolce & Gabbana: My leagacy house. For reasons I will say later I think this house will cut me before Pref Night. I really got along great with all the girls I spoke with. They gave tons of compliments which is definitely uplifting during Rush.

Michael Kors: LOVED this house. I stayed here with a friend one night in high school and I loved the girls right off the bat. I was picked up by a girl I didn't know and she was so easy to talk to! I spoke with a couple of girls I knew previously and everything was so relaxed. Definitely a favorite.


Prada: Was picked up by a girl I met a couple weeks ago and she was so nice! She is close with a girl I grew up with who is also a Prada. She was the only girl I spoke with but this was definitely in my top 6 favorites.

Burberry: I didn't like the atmosphere very much as soon as I walked into this house. The girl I spoke with wasn't awkward, but there were definitely some awkward silences and we definitely didn't click. One of my least favorites.

Tory Burch: My 2nd least favorite, I liked their physical house but the girls were a little too "in your face" for me. Not any awkward moments but some really weird conversation.

Dior: I got picked up by a girl with the same major as me which was really nice! I talked to a senior who was really into Dior and really depressed that it was her last Recruitment. Overall this was an OK house for me.

Fendi: It was nice going to this house because we got to do a mini tour right off the bat. I talked to a really sweet girl and saw her room, then met her little. We had pretty good conversation but I'm not sure if I see myself here or not.

Valentino: My first house. LOVE!! I spoke with three or four different girls that I knew previously (not very well but well enough) and we really hit it off. The girls are so precious and I love all my friends that are Valentino's so I'm really hoping I get invited back tomorrow!

Armani: My last house. This is the chapter that the girls from my high school are known to join. I spoke with a close friend and another friend from high school. I really really liked this house even though it was the end of the day. Definitely top 3.

Chloe: I went in really expecting to love this house and it just didn't click with me. The girls I talked to were sweet girls but there were a few awkward moments and by the end I was kind of glad to leave. Hands down my favorite physical house. I really like my friends in this house so I hope I get invited back tomorrow and it goes a little better.

Sorry this is so long! Recruitment is such a crazy week so if I don't post tomorrow I will try my hardest to do it the next morning. Again, if you know my school please please don't reveal! Thanks!

We were able to cut 3 and they were Gucci, Burberry, Tory Burch

Top 3 so far are Michael Kors, Valentino and Armani (in no order)
