Next round: Down to four
I wore my light grey straight corduroy skirt and light grey ruffled blouse with a mauve cable sweater vest over it. I didn’t get pearls for graduation, so wore the Marvella faux pearls that my mom had helped me select at the mall. I don’t remember much of the themes from this round, and I only remember this outfit because I have photos. By then everything was starting to blend together.
St. Elmo’s Fire: The more girls I met, the more I was impressed with how polished they seemed. Their parties seemed like something out of the country club scene in Caddyshack – restrained, yet refined.
Pretty in Pink: This group of girls really seemed to love each other. They didn’t fit any particular mold, as it was a mix of Southern belles, New York tough girls, and everything in between. There were a few upperclass girls from my classes who always said hello to me here, which I liked.
Fast Times at Ridgemont High: Every time I came here, I met more members who seemed genuine. The President always stopped by to say hello, which made me feel really welcome. At this party, they did the skit twice since the chapter room was small, and I ended up seeing it both times when rotation broke down.
Valley Girl: Everyone said this was a great group, and several of my hall mates really wanted to be a Valley Girl. The adorable RA in our dorm was one, as was the older sister of one of my hallmates who I liked a lot. I hadn't really clicked with anyone in this group. Plus, I couldn’t go home wearing Valley Girl letters, not when Best Friend cut the group after first round at Big State U.
The next day I had to go down from four to three groups. I had invites to all four, and easily eliminated Valley Girl.
