When I got back my schedule for Skit, it looked like this:
1. Hen Party
2. Aston
3. Lara's Theme
4. Boom Boom Pow
I was absolutely devastated that Tea With the Queen dropped me, especially considering that it was a legacy. Even though Jaffa and Rosie Lee were legacies too, I hadn't clicked there as well as I did at Tea With the Queen. It was just really tough. I was a little upset about Let's Plie too, but I kind of felt that one coming. I was excited to have Hen Party and Lara's Theme back, though! I could easily see myself at either house!
Now, on to the skits...
1. Hen Party: The girl rushing me was one of the girls I had for Philanthropy Day, and I absolutely loved her! She remembered me, too! We had a pretty good conversation - definitely no awkward pauses. Their skit was so funny it had me in tears! After that, I absolutely knew that if I made it to pref, they were my #1 choice.
2. Aston: I had a pretty good time here. Not nearly as good as Hen Party, but I definitely came out of the house thinking I could see myself there. I didn't have a whole lot in common with the girl that rushed me, so it got a little awkward at times, but she was really sweet and actually ended up being in their skit, which was hilarious! I would really, really like to be invited back!
3. Lara's Theme: Today, this house wasn't as fantastic to me as it had been in previous rounds. The girl that rushed me seemed disinterested in me, although she could've just been really tired. I struggled really hard to make conversation, and I felt like I was rushing her instead of the other way around. Their skit also wasn't my favorite...it just kind of missed the mark for me. I left thinking that I would definitely go back if asked, but that it might not be as perfect a fit as I thought it was originally.
4. Boom Boom Pow: I don't really know how to feel about this house. The girl that rushed me was fabulous - I seriously had the most refreshingly real conversation with her. I felt really comfortable talking and didn't feel like I had to put on a façade like I did at some of the other houses. Their skit, however, was just really not funny. The drink they served was sublime, but I had a really hard time watching the skit. I got the feeling that the other girls at the party felt the same. Despite my wonderful conversation, I felt pretty sure that I wouldn't want to come back to this house.
At the end of the day, I could rank three houses as my top choices and one as my bottom choice. I ranked them like this:
Top
1. Hen Party
2. Aston
3. Lara's Theme
Bottom
1. Boom Boom Pow
We're coming into the home stretch...pref is next!!
