Before I continue I just wanna respond to some of the questions...

What? Really? Is that normal? Even so, rather "formal/Pref-y" for the first day.

To be honest I had the same reaction. I didn't know if this was normal or not. It was kinda cool, but the content of the prayer seemed a bit too religious. For the record that didn't happen in any other house.

* Only 3 of 9 houses on Day 1. For instance, my school (with 12 sororities) does all chapters on Day 1..... While this is not the only way to do it, I've never heard of a school spacing it out this much and am curious to know the reasoning behind it. Especially as this is a Saturday, I would think you'd have time....

I'm not sure why Panhel did it that way. But it was 3 days, 3 houses, then we filled out a pref card 2 days after the last day of round 1...(Wednesday)...I'll get into that later. I'll tell you my school at the end of the story, because I just don't want to give it all away right off the bat.

* Do you rank every day? Or was this just how you were doing it?

That was just me

* Did you really get to go in all the chapter rooms? That (from my experiences, which granted, is a blur from four years ago) seems odd.

I did actually...all the formal rooms and the chapter rooms.

How odd it is that someone who has never met you before recruitment rolls her eyes at you and hates your guts.

I completely agree with this. Yes it did strike me as not only odd, but rude, unprofessional, and downright petty. To me it seems like there are only 2 logical reasons, the first is more likely 1) maybe she was tired or some inside issue was going on or 2) my weight? it could just be me being self-conscious, I tend to think its the former, because I overanalyze things WAY too much. Part of the sad part of this story....you'll understand when i finish it.

I feel that most of the time that "rude" girl (if she exists) isn't actually being rude, the PNM is putting their nervousness or insecurity onto the active's actions and viewing it as rude when it wasn't intended to be.

This is probably true for me. I more willing to admit it because I know myself well enough now, but keep in my this is also a long time ago and these are memories I have.
Dinner time...Day 2 coming TONIGHT!!!
