Preference Round – You can be invited back to 3 houses this round so that means I had to be eliminated from at least one which ended up being Stawberry Cheesecake. I was actually not upset by this at all because that meant I go to go back to 2 of my favorites! So, with a full schedule under my belt, I headed off to pref!
Chunky Monkey – The decorations for this house were beautiful but I was, once again, stuck with a girl who wouldn’t really talk to me about anything. It felt like I was back at Open House and I blanched when she asked me what I would do if the name of their sorority was on my bid card. I tried to skirt around that question but I think the girl realized that I wasn’t very excited to be back there. Before we went into the house, a Gamma Chi had to check our names off of a list because so many girls were trying to skip...it was horrible.
Milk&Cookies – I was actually VERY excited to be back at this house. I cried during their skit because I could relate so well to one of the stories told by an active. I had a great conversation with a girl I had met previously during the week and I decided that I could feel at home here. I left feeling very comfortable with placing them on my bid card. The lukewarm feeling had gone away and I was honestly tied between this sorority and Peach Cobbler.
Peach Cobbler - My last house of Pref day and my absolutely favorite! It had been my favorite all week and, luckily, Pref day did not change my opinion. I was rushed by a girl I had met previously and even if I didn’t join that chapter, I wanted to hang out with her! I could see myself dressed up to go out with the girls or lying in my sweats watching movies, I felt at home. I guess not everyone has that instant feeling of fitting in with the girls but I did. Pref is definitely the best round of recruitment because you actually get to know the girl. No more fake smiling (for the most part) or being overly polite after being asked where you’re from 2342323 times. I was ready to fill out my bid card!
