So the next morning I got up and headed to meet my Rho Chi. I had been invited back to:
Easter
Memorial Day
4th of July
Labor Day
Halloween
Thanksgiving
Christmas
YAY!!!!!
So I picked my Top Four...........................................
Memorial Day
Fourth of July
Halloween
Thanksgiving
Today was the second Skit Day, so I was excited! (Our format used to be Open House, Skit, Skit, Pref...yes, this took place before Philanthropy Days came around
) And we were frills all the way, which I un-secretly LOVE!!!
Memorial Day: Once again, all the girls were really friendly and great! Loved their President again! Wish they were more involved in campus leadership (seemed exclusive to the president), but realized this might give me an opportunity to really shine!
4th of July: Their skit was so great! REALLY connected with one of the sisters...best conversation all week...we just clicked!!! Their skit really showed the different personalities of the chapter and you could just "feel" the sisterhood.
Halloween: This skit was really great, too! Very fun! While I loved, loved, loved so many different women in this chapter, I was starting to feel that this chapter as a whole may not be for me. They were definitely athletic and involved...I was starting to feel like I was a little more girly than this group. Not a deal-breaker, just something to think about. Their skit was super-creative though, which I loved!!!
Thanksgiving: If there was one group that stood out before Recruitment to me, it was this one. They had not disappointed yet! Their skit was great...many women came up and welcomed me back, etc. Then when it was time to go, the PRECIOUS girl rushing me threw me a curveball. She said, "What qualities do you have that would contribute to XXX?" Talk about being gob-smacked!!! Luckily, we were in the line walking out by this point, but I found myself spurting things from my resume..."I have really great grades, I was involved in this, this, and this." In my mind, though, I was thinking, "Aren't you supposed to be rushing ME???" Talk about having something to think about now...now I know that it is a mutual selection process, but I had submitted my application and had come to pre-recruitment events and everything...didn't they already know what I had to offer???? Those were my thoughts at the time.
Again, dinner with my Rho Chi (who by the way was so fabulous!!! we totally clicked!)
Back to the dorms to think about what to do...I thought I knew who my top 2 were before this day! Now one of them had thrown me for a loop! Turns out, they had asked everyone this question, and it had turned a lot of people off...what to do, what to do???
