Crazyocutie's rush
 
Wow, rush starts this time next week. I am so incredibly excited about it. I can't wait to see how greek life really is. Along with that though, I am extremely nervous. I am a sophmore and I am worried that some people will have a problem with that. I sure hope not though. The other problem is that I can be really shy. It all depends though. Sometimes I can be really chatty and other times not. Can anyone give me advice about how to get over my nerves?

Like you, I can be the shyest person in a group, and sometimes I can be the most talkative. I notice I am more talkative when I let my guard down and just try and talk without worrying what someone is thinking, maybe you could try that. Just be yourself! Make sure the outfits you choose to wear make you feel good about yourself! When you look in the mirror and say "damn I look great," you'll feel great and have that glowing type of confidence!

Thanks. I already have all my outfits picked out. I really do think that confidence in your appearance does have something to do with how people percieve you and how you present yourself.

Yea.. so I have become addicted to this site. There are so many neat things on here. It is just making me more excited for rush. I guess my little nervous bout is over for now. I just can't wait to get back to Orlando and start this thing for real. I miss it up there. I feel like it is my new home. Hopefully it will be even more of a home with a whole bunch of sisters to help me along my way.

Good luck and have fun. Glad you feel you are over your bout of nervousness. If you think nervousness might return, you could check out some GC threads that give tips on questions that you may be asked, and questions you may want to ask. For instance, there's one titled "What questions should I be prepared to answer?" Sometimes it helps reinforce your confidence just to know you have thought about or even practiced some replies and a question or two.
Thank you so much. I am definitely planning on practicing my responses to the questions. I also am trying to think of some good questions to ask that will be appropriate.

Good luck, Crazyocutie! There's so much advice on these threads, but I always recommend chloe's long but well thought out list. May you get the bid of your choice!

dress confidantly...have something in your head to either ask or talk about...and keep your eyes, ears and heart open.
lol

Good luck!! Just remember to relax and have fun. You're going to meet some awesome girls who are just as nervous and excited as you are (on both sides of the recruitment process!). I think that recruitment is a great way to meet lots of great people! :) Once again, best of luck!

Thanks everyone for all of your well wishes and tips. I will take them all to heart. :)

crazyocutie 08-12-2003 10:37 PM

Ahh!!
 
So I just tried on the dresses I have already. Well they fit and everything, but I just don't like them. I wish that I had unlimited funds so that I could just buy new clothes all the time. I guess tomorrow I am going to hit up the mall and see if I can find something cute for kinda cheap. If not, I can always wear these dresses, I just would like them to look a lot better then they do.
