You should be careful about what you say, but if you think rush didn't work great for you because you weren't yourself or were too nervous about what you were saying, then by all means, try to be your authentic self. These are conversations. Not everything you say is going to be pristine, but it should be REAL.

But between now and when COB starts, spend some real time thinking about what went wrong. When you are released completely from rush, something went wrong. It wasn't just an accident. Too good for certain chapters? Too nervous/loud/not funny in your conversation? Dressed inappropriately? Memorable in the wrong way? Now is the time to really have a heart to hear with yourself. When rushing informal so quickly after formal you don't have much time to make substantive changes (grades, extracurriculars, making friends with sorority women, etc.) but you CAN present yourself better.
