Two more parties left on Thursday.

The first party was at Foxmoor. It was held in their house which was directly off campus. Their house was a largish family house which had been made over to accomodate 10-14 girls...it was cozy and welcoming and the complete opposite of Ormond. They had a cookout theme so we ate weiners lol. I am pretty sure I wore pleated capri jeans to this party. (They sound worse than they were, they were actually very cute.) They didn't really have a skit...I think we played word games or something. The pretty girl I'd seen in the business building with the Clooney came up to me and said "I saw you scoping out my letters the other day!" and we got to talking. She introduced me to her big who actually looked like her bio sister - they were both really cool and nice. I knew two sisters of this sorority through my boyfriend - Sue Ann and Natalie. I wasn't sure how they would react since my boyfriend wasn't altogether happy about my rushing, but they couldn't have been more welcoming. All in all I was really comfortable here and enjoyed myself a lot.

The second party of the night was with Ups & Downs. They also held it in the campus weekend dance room. My boyfriend's nickname for this group was "The Amazons" and while I did see a girl or two that could probably hold her own with Hulk Hogan, for the most part it was a really diverse mix of lovely women. Two of the girls in my freshman year dorm, Cindy and Kimberly, had pledged this group the year before and seeing what a great time they had was one of the things that made me want to go Greek. They both greeted me with open arms, Kimberly in particular. They had an around the world theme, the food was good, the favor we got was cute and useful and the skit was hilarious. It was obvious that they had an extremely close sisterhood and loved each other very much. I had a really, really good time here.

Weekend off!! (Thank God) We would be getting our invites to pref (if we got any) in our campus mail throughout the weekend.
