Hello, hello!
Sorry for the day-long break in between posts. That 9 page Spanish paper was brutal!
Anyway, I shall pick up where we left off.
I had ranked the houses, and the final draft looked like this:
- Peach
- Strawberry
- Cherry
- Starfruit
- Watermelon
- Pineapple
- Cantaloupe
- Mangoe
- Honeydew
- Plum
- Grape
- Kiwi
- Banana
- Blueberry
I'm not sure there is any real point in recapping the events. Generally, the only ones I had strong negative feelings for were my bottom three. The rest of the houses all seemed great. I liked some more than others, but in my mind I didn't have my heart set on a particular house yet - except
maybe Peach. Otherwise, they were all pretty equal in my mind.
Jena and I woke up together again to get ready. I don't remember what type of attire was recommended, but I do remember what I wore: I chose a pair of cute pink and white polka dot espadrilles, a modest denim skirt, a cute pink top and a sweet little glossy pink handbag. Very pink, but not too much. After we dressed and did makeup, etc, Jena and I went to grab some food. I could hardly eat, though, because I was so concerned that I wouldn't be going back to Peach . Jena seemed über confident, however, which rattled me a little bit.
When we got the meeting place, my Rho Chi was there, all smiles. At this point I was positive I was going to throw up. Could Marie have been right? Did I come off negatively to the sisters of Strawberry since I was talking to a couple of actives at once? Could I have ruined my chances at that house, and a few others as well? I spun into a serious state of panic while I waited for my Rho Chi to give me the news...
