Hi everyone! SO SORRY I haven't been updating this fast enough--I've been crazy busy with school and work and etc. BUT here's Day 2 (House tours)!
DAY 2: House tours
I was suuuuper nervous for this day! I didn’t really know what to expect, so I just figured that at least one sorority invited me to house tours. When I received my schedule for the day, I got a full schedule with all my top picks! I visited:
Pete
Jack
Kenneth
Cerie
Jenna
Toofer
It was a pretty busy day, what with running around from house to house…but here are my impressions!
Pete: Liked the girls here. Ended up talking to one of my friends who I had hung out with a few times because of W, so it was pretty chill. Saw lots of pictures of W on the photo slideshow, and missed her a LOT! Other than that, didn’t feel too strongly swayed by this house but I did like them.
Jack: Okay, I definitely did not expect to like this house as much as I did. Had a really great bunch of girls who I talked to—one girl and I suddenly began gushing about pets or Teen Mom or something for a WHILE, and I got lots of compliments on a skirt that I was wearing. I even met the VP Recruitment for the house, and she was really sweet as well! I had an amazing time at the house, and their photo slideshow really made me want to be in their chapter.
Kenneth: This house was okay. I first spoke to the girl whom I already was friends with in this house, so it wasn’t too bad. After that though, I kind of started getting a headache so I was trying really hard to stay interested (usually my pre-lunch hunger pains I think). I think I had expected a lot of this house based on the girls from the day before, but I spoke to a sister from a nearby school’s Kenneth chapter (or she might have been a Kenneth transfer, can’t remember) next, so she was nice, but she didn’t really give me definitive answers on the Kenneth chapter at my school.
Cerie: So this house has a reputation for partying, which I didn’t really mind. But I have to admit, within the first 30 seconds of conversation with the girl I spoke to, she immediately began asking if I liked to party (like…verbatim). I responded honestly and said that I did, but I was pretty sure that they weren’t allowed to ask questions like that. The girls I met here seemed really fun though (for the most part). A girl who was in one of my classes over the summer led our house tour and although she was a pretty nice girl from what I remember, she seemed really indifferent and droned on and on about the house’s activities in a really unenthusiastic voice. Other than her, I liked the girls at this house.
Jenna: The girls here were nice as well—really excited, actually. They were really hyper during their song..haha. The house tour wasn’t as exciting as some of the other houses I’d been to, to be honest, but talking to girls was fun nonetheless. One of the girls ended up gushing about her future wedding plans which made me laugh because one of my own friends already has her ring picked out and stuff (total girl talk lol).
Toofer: I don’t remember a lot about this house, but I do remember that I just wasn’t feeling it (combination of being jaded from last year and just ready to be done with the day). I remembered waving to my friends at the house, but I also felt that I didn’t think I’d be happy here.
At the end of the day, my rankings went like this:
Stay tuned! Sorry for the delayed responses but I promise I’ll get faster at this!(don't know why the rankings are spaced, but ignore the spacing--it doesnt mean anything)!
