Plenty of people love rushing but many have a hard time with it. Depending on how big the greek system is at a school, rush may take weeks and can be draining. If you have 20+ sororities to meet first rounds, that is a LOT of small talk and trying to keep people/your impressions straight, etc. But if your campus has 10 or so (or less), it may take less time and may seem to "fly by" more quickly for you.

Either way, disappointments do happen, and people aren't always prepared for them. So as long as you go in to things looking forward to the experience as much as the result, you will probably get more out of it than someone who registers to rush focused on just getting into a certain house or 1 of 3 sororities she's "sure" she's meant to be in.

You sound like you're pretty laid back about it, you'll probably be just fine. Go enjoy! Be prepared to drop and be dropped, because that's just part of the process, but by all means, please try to have fun, going greek is a great thing. Good luck and keep us posted here on GC!!!
