Alright guys, two parts left of my story...I wasn't trying to make it super long, just didn't want to do 19 chapters in one day, quite frankly haha. Also a week long vacation didn't help much, combined with a couple 40 hour work weeks. Sorry!
We have deferred recruitment, so I was forced to wait to find out what houses I got back for second invite. I felt like I was outgoing and sociable, and as cute as one can be when it's 25 degrees and snowing out. We came back early from winter break, met with our rho gams the night before (ours bought us a cookie cake!), and tried to sleep before we got our lists for second invite.
The next morning arrived quicker than ever, and I got ready, donned my uggs, grabbed my heels, and left. We met our rho gam and I got my list....with only 2 chapters on it. I was about ready to start crying at that point, but one of the two chapters left was a favorite of mine, so I was still in the running. I hadn't felt anything when I was at the second chapter, but I wanted to go to their party and give them a chance. Rounds started early and my first party wasn't until 1, so I went back to my room to catch some more sleep
Toffee Mocha Chip Frapp: We got to wait inside at this house, and while inside, all the girls were talking about how this house accidentally invited back too many girls, and I was definitely scared. Was I not supposed to get invited back? I got in line with everyone else and walked in, and we were introduced to our active sister and seated for the skit. While waiting for the skit to start, the PNM who was being double rushed with me said that she had a full slate of parties and wasn't interested in Toffee Mocha Chip, so she would let me talk as much as I wanted and make me look good. I was definitely happy about that after hearing about some other girls' double rush stories. This chapter had an adorable Wizard of Oz themed skit, and I loved it! I definitely was feeling positive about this chapter, the girls seemed very genuine. We were taken upstairs to talk to the sisters, and I didn't really click all that much with the first girl I talked to. She seemed rather apathetic and wasn't very enthusiastic about making conversation, despite my and the other PNMs attempts. Also, she took part in the skit as Glinda...so she was wearign a poofy prom dress, haha. The other two girls I talked to were much more talkative and I felt that same click with this chapter that I felt during the first round of parties. I was hopefully they'd invite me back
My next party wasn't until 10:30 that night, so back to my room to hang out until then
Passion Iced Tea: The gossip outside of this chapter was brutal again, as girls were tired from having parties all day, and most of them did not want to be at Passion. I was excited to be there though, as I knew that they wanted me back, so I figured I'd give it a shot. We were triple rushed here again, but this time it was by an active sister rather than an alum. Their skit was Passion through the decades, and it was cute, but nowhere near the level of Toffee Mocha Chip. It seemed like they didn't put as much effort into it, either decorating or coming up with the script and ideas. The other two girls that were rushed with me were flat out rude because they did not want to be there. I tried to keep an open mind and was very friendly towards the active, talkative, interested, etc. but did not feel like this was mean to to be my home.
I went to bed that night hoping that I still had Toffee Mocha Chip on my list the next morning
