Wow! Thank you for all the amazing advice. A lot of the things you said I wouldn't have even thought of. After talking with my big and some other girls who lived/are living in the house I got a lot of really valuable input. It's not that I don't want to do it at all... before I was faced with the possibility of having to live in the house, I was like, "YES, I would love to live in the house if I had the chance!" but now the practical side of me is setting in which is where the hesitancy came from, I think.

After giving it a LOT of thought, I think it would be a good thing for me to live in. I do sometimes feel a bit of a disconnect from chapter, especially with being on e-board and living off campus. To me, our house is already home, so how bad could living in really be? Plus, I would be fine being room mates with almost any of the girls. Based on what our housing director said, I won't get a single unless one of the older-in-chapter girls wants a double. I do get first pick of which double and what room mate I want though, which is good. Thanks again for all your words of advice and encouragement. I know I can always count on my GC ladies.
