Okay I think I'm confused... In round one you referenced a Glinda and a Glenda, but your code only had Glinda, and for Philanthropy you said both Glinda and Glenda.
I'm just trying to figure out if you were asked back to day 1 Glinda or day 2 Glenda.

GLINDA: Now that the first round of cuts had been made I stood in line next to different girls. No Chuck Norris in sight. See? I was finding upsides to my schedule already. I did recognize faces from my walking group, including the girl standing in front of me. She was a sophomore who had gone to the same high school as Chuck Norris. From what I understand it’s a wealthy school and it’s alumni have a pretty strong presence in Oregon Greek life, with a reputation for being pretty intense and dramatic [go figure]. She seemed extremely down to earth however and I liked her a lot. As it happened, we were called inside together. All I could think was “Oh my God, what if all the kids from your school go to recruitment boot camp and you’re just as scary as the other one!” The rusher picked us up and we sat down to watch a film about their philanthropy. We started the normal small talk before it started. The other girl had an extracurricular in common with the rusher and they hit it off. I wouldn’t say the other PNM was aggressive or in the same league as CN by any means, but was what I’d call “gently assertive”. She didn’t seem to talk in an attempt to drown me out, just to get her voice heard. I could respect that. I had hardly said anything to the rusher when the film started. I already knew what Glenda’s philanthropy was and I admired it a lot. Perhaps it was the emotional morning I’d had thus far, but I was caught off guard. I was so moved by it that I was almost crying at the end. Afterwards we did a pretty simple craft that I managed to make look rather silly. While we were working on it another member came over and talked to us. I liked her more than my original rusher though I didn’t get to talk with her as much as I would have liked. Once again I felt the other PNM was making a bigger impact than I was. I felt comfortable enough here but I was still a little frazzled. I left feeling that my chances of being asked back were minimal.
