This particular poster has mentioned serving margaritas during recruitment, has a main character in her story who could not be more shallow or mean, and does not paint an accurate picture of what recruitment parties are like. (bashing each other in the bathroom? During the party? Please.)
I personally couldn't care less if this recruitment story happens to be true or not- but you do make some excellent points, Blondie93. GLOs have enough bad press as it is... and PNMs and parents are on this site. That being said, I wasn't aware of just how many PNMs are rather Rachel-ish until I started rush. But yeah... in the bathroom dissing, not so much in my experience. However, it is good IMO to alert people that bi$%#es like Rachel are really out there and to keep a thick skin, I like the way you deal with it in your story! And the Starfruit house is right there for you! <3

I'm pretty sure it's a fabricated story or at least only partially true (based on some aspects of her own rush experience). Either way, I love it!

looking forward to the next installment, please keep going! =]
