Day 1:
I wish that I could say I remember every single detail but alas, because it’s been awhile my memory is a bit fuzzy. I remember getting to the area where everyone was supposed to meet to find out which group they are in for the weekend, and I talked to a few other girls while waiting in line but sadly we were not in the same group so I hardly saw them the rest of recruitment.
I remember feeling very nervous before meeting the first group, though I told myself beforehand to be myself and smile because everyone was just as nervous I am sure. The first group I met (I believe, this is where I have those fuzzy moments because I can’t remember the order I saw everyone in!) was Tommy , I don’t really recall any of the conversations that I had with any of the women but I remember that they were really nice. I didn’t really connect with any of them, but I still enjoyed everything.
Second, was Phil! I had a harder time with conversations, I don’t know if it was because somehow my nervousness escalated between rooms or if the woman I was talking with was just as nervous as I was. I remember talking about things I liked to do, but I felt like there wasn’t that spark. I remember having such a weird conversation about going to some place and then accidentally confusing them because they thought I was talking about something totally different! I was really embarrassed and felt bad because I didn’t want to seem extremely awkward. I still had a good time with them, and I thought everyone was super friendly. I just didn’t feel too great leaving because I definitely was awkward.
Third was Chuckie, when I met the first women that talked to me we had an instant connection over our interests in books, movies and interests. I felt like I was so much more relaxed here, we talked for quite some time before I talked to two other girls who were just as into the things I was. I had such a fun time and I remember when it was time to leave I was really bummed because the conversations were just a lot of fun. I definitely wanted to and hoped to return the next day
I remember feeling as I left how happy I was that I didn’t let my bit of an awkward start affect me from then on. I told myself to just have a fun time!
Angelica– I loved talking to everyone here as well. I connected with a few of the women right away, there was never a pause in the conversation or a moment of silence because we were always talking whether it be what we love to do in our spare time, or anything. I definitely wanted to return the next day.
Susie – I don’t remember much except that everyone was really nice.
Lil – Once again I felt like I connected with a lot of the women and they were also friendly. I don’t remember a lot of the conversations but I remember after leaving since they were the last group I met that I was very excited and pleased.
Day one was officially through, and while I had a rough start I was so happy and pleased with how the day ended. I honestly would have been happy going back to any of the sororities because I wanted to get to know all of them better! I had no bad feelings about any of them, and would have been happy to be asked back to any of them! Yes, even the ones where I felt extremely awkward in, because even though I felt awkward in them, I thought that they were and are very wonderful.
