Today was so fun! It wasn't as long as yesterday so that was a plus, and also the weather somewhat cooperated with us today. It looked like it was going to rain, but it didn't and it stayed overcast, so that was really nice.  Today my group and I visited: Renesmee, Victoria, Jessica Stanley, Jacob, Mike Newton, Carlisle.
Renesmee- The girl I was paired with was super sweet and there was never any lull in our conversation. We spoke a lot about philanthropies, trophies, and family weekend. I'm not sure if I could see myself there, but I did feel pretty comfortable.
Victoria- Again, the young woman I was paired with was great and very welcoming! We spoke about TV nights in their house, people with coupons ( we both have to deal with this at work hahaha), nail polish, and their chapter president. Very pretty girls, another one that I'm not sure whether or not I could fit it, but I wouldn't be opposed to being invited back!
Jessica Stanley- The girl I was paired with was nice, however I bit hesitant and standoffish at first. The conversation picked up, though. We spoke about my major and networking. She was nice, but the place all in all was almost too "perfect" and almost stepford-ish. This isn't the place for me.
Jacob- Here, I spoke to three girls. The first was really nice, I could tell that she is kind of shy, but I just kept the conversation flowing as best I could and I believed she followed suit. Between the three ladies, we spoke about my year in college, major, their house and how it has been redone; the seats of their chairs were so cute and their house was beautiful! I believe I could see myself here.
Mike Newton- The girl I was paired with was a bit monotone at first, but I think because she was a little nervous, but the conversation got better in no time. We talked about their philanthropy and how it was something I would be interested in because I'm involved with something similar. BEAUTIFUL house. Still unsure about whether or not I could see myself there.
Carlisle- The last house of the day! WOOHOO! I LOVE this house! The young woman I was matched with spoke with me as if we have been friends for a while. No awkwardness at all! She was great! We spoke about networking, the same shows we like, my major and a lot of the girls in that group have the same major, and how being in a sorority can help someone so much and how sisterhood is such a beautiful thing to have. I also had kind of a deja-vu when I was sitting in this house; I felt as though I have been there before or have had a premonition of me being there in the future. Needless to say, I LOVED this house.
After the final party concluded, we all walked back to a building to preference our choices. We don't rank our top eleven, but we do rank our bottom five just in case it matches with their choice and it's still a possibility that we can be asked back.
My top 11:
Esme
Carlisle
James
Alice
Bella
Edward
Rosalie
Jasper
Renesmee
Jacob
Emmett
My bottom five:
Mike Newton
Victoria
Jessica Stanley
Charlie Swan
Laurant
