And so rush began....
Day 1: Still homesick, still pessimistic, and extremely nervous, BabyFlamingo ventured off for the first day, which included house tours. She was thrilled to note that each house provided much more inviting living quarters than her old musty dorm! One group quickly became her favorite. She enjoyed everyone she met and felt extremely comfortable there. Another group was a close second.
Day 2: BabyF was excited to see she'd been invited to all four philanthropy parties. She enjoyed them all, but Favorite from Day 1 topped them all again. Their philanthropy was near and dear to her heart and she hit it off with everyone she met there. #2 from the previous day remained a close second.
Day 3: After she called me, stressed out over a wardrobe dilemma, BabyF had a full schedule for 3-party skit day, including her top two! She enjoyed the refreshments and entertainment at each house, but knew that Favorite was close to capturing her heart, and #2 still stayed a close second.
Day 4: BabyF was beyond thrilled to be invited back to her top two for pref night. Her first party was "Close Second". She was paired up with the girl she had on day 3. She had enjoyed meeting this girl before, but as the conversation flowed and they both let their guard down, she felt a bond being formed. As the ceremony began, and everyone's tears flowed, she really felt a connection to the group as a whole that she hadn't felt before. When it was over, she didn't want to leave! While she was at "Favorite's" party, she realized her heart was still back with Close Second! What to do? After a long talk with her Rho Gam, she realized she had a new favorite!
She is extremely excited about bid day... tonight... and will be THRILLED with either house! I realized I haven't heard "I want to come home now" since the day before rush started!
By the way, BabyF's roommate preffed the other two groups!
