i am so sorry that you are feeling a little discouraged-but i have to say that your feelings are normal. you have been trooping around in the tallahassee heat, up and down the hills, from one end of campus to the other and back again. you have been rained on, probably cat called or whistled at by the boys and stared at by passers by. rush week is tough!!

someone said something that was less than impressive-i'll bet the person in question didn't even realize what she had said. when she thinks back about the conversation she had with you, she most likely will feel really bad. but then, maybe she did not have any negative intent with what she said.it does go to show us all that we should be careful about what we say-if someone does not know us well, they can misinterpret what we actually meant.

i hope that you will overlook it, especially since you have really liked the house up to now. wouldn't it be sad if you decided not to go back, and then your feelings changed a few months down the line?

it is also hard to hear that other girls have the maximum invitations each day while others don't. don't worry about those girls-just keep going to the ones who want to get to know you better.

i think that if you drop out of recruitment now, you will end up regretting it. many of these sororities recruit just once a year and this is the only opportunity fsu pnms have to join those chapters. if your heart belongs to a smaller group, you may be able to join via informal recruitment(which is much more relaxed and informal, hence the name:-) ) but even still, you are taking a chance-they might pledge up to quota/total and not participate in informal recruitment this year.

i hope that you feel better today and that the positive attitude you have exhibited all thru the week is back. hugs to you!!
