Day 2

I was more excited to begin Day 2 because I was anxious to get to LIME and PINK. Sooo here we go!


LAVENDER: When we walked in this house, I immediately noticed that every single girl had on what appeared to be a Lilly Pulitzer headband. Another girl (Claire.. she and I had a lot of the same houses throughout the week) and I were double-rushed, so I asked our rusher about their headbands. She gave me a really strange look, and said "I have no idea who that even is," then proceeded to focus most of her attention on Claire. Okaaaaaay. I was caught off-guard by their cheer, too. I didn't get the best impression from this house, but attributed it to the fact that our rusher and I just didn't mesh well.

MAROON: Another house that doesn't really stand out in my mind. I remember feeling kind of blah about it. The second girl who talked to me was really nice, and had just gotten home from five months in Europe, which fascinated me.

TEAL: I loved this house from the moment I stepped in the door. The girls were very bubbly and outgoing. Their house is one of five on campus that isn't built like the other sororities'. They had one of the coolest skits, also. I could very much see myself here!

LIME: Oh, LIME! I was both nervous and excited for this house. When I started talking to the girl who had picked me up, she told me she had pledged/initiated at School #1 and transferred to School #2 last year, also. I was absolutely blown away! I still don't know if she was intentionally paired with me (I had made no mention of my experience at school #1 to anyone at all... I kind of wanted to keep it a secret). I really liked these girls, but I was still feeling a little bit scarred from School #1, and talking to that girl didn't really help matters. Mostly, I just felt confused about this house.

PINK: I had three rec's for this house, so I was very anxious to see what they were like. I wasn't disappointed! All of the girls seemed to be very different from each other, yet they all seemed REALLY close. They had a cute skit, and the girl I talked to was wonderful. I was very impressed/excited about this house.

RED: Another house I was excited to visit, because I had so many connections to it. However, I had heard that they had struggled a few years ago. With it being the last house, I was exhausted again, and the girl who picked me up seemed a little distracted. She took me to the basement, which was very loud, and we had to yell to hear each other. I really loved the next girl I talked to, and they had a cute skit. I left with a positive impression, if not a great one.

This was the night where we ranked all of the houses, so my sheet looked like this:

1. LAVENDER
1. RED
1. NAVY
1. YELLOW

Just as a note, my "number one's" aren't really in a specific order. 2, 3, and 4 are.
