I feel like I grew up a lot today by the simple action of picking houses and I'm really happy.
That is really awesome. I know the tent talk can be impossible to avoid during IU recruitment, especially overhearing things on the bus, but ignoring it is absolutely the best way to try to find a house that could become your home.

I went into recruitment bring so shallow and so stuck on stereotypes but during 8 party (well, 6 party for me) round I just could not deny feeling so much more comfortable in "lower tier" houses and I shocked myself when I listed those for pref. I certainly think I grew up too and learned a lot about myself in that one week of recruitment. Good luck tomorrow!
