The night was finally here! I had been preparing for round one of rush for months. My rho gamma group consisted of 10 other girls. I was pretty sure my rho gamma was a Jason Aldean, but more on that later on in the story!
Kenny Chesney- I was happy this was my first house of the night because I wanted to get my nerves out on a chapter I wasn’t super attracted to. I was paired with another PNM this round that barely spoke. The first girl I talked to was so nervous that she could barely begin a conversation. I had to ask all of the questions to both of the girls. I talked to a total of four girls and I didn’t click with a single one. They were all terribly nervous, soft spoken, and seemed uninterested. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to go back.
Keith Urban- I talked to four girls in this house too. I clicked really well with two of them because we had similar interests. Both of the girls I clicked with told me they would “see me tomorrow.” I was worried about dirty rushing going on at my school so I took note of it and tried to shake it off. The other two girls were nice, but the conversations weren’t natural per say. In the middle of my last conversation I snapped my plastic up in half by accident. How embarrassing! I was pretty sure I would get an invite back.
Jason Aldean- I recognized so many of the Fall 13 pledge class girls and was so happy to see them. I was paired with the only Fall 13 pledge that I hadn’t met previously. She was stunningly pretty and I was really hopeful that we would hit it off. We stumbled through the conversation at first. One of the Fall 13 girls that I had a class with came to bring us water and said hello, but quickly left. After about 10 minutes of surface conversation, I was getting bored with the girl I was talking to. I was expecting the girls to switch out, but we had to keep talking. I finished my water and my voice got really dry again. I ended up coughing and having a hard time talking for the second half of the conversation. I walked out really upset because I wished I could have talked to more than one girl and wished I hadn’t had a coughing attack halfway through. In my heart I knew I was dropped from a house I really, really liked.
Florida-Georgia Line- This house was perfection. I clicked with every girl I talked to. We had a really deep conversation about their philanthropy because it was one that I had previously supported in high school. All of the girls were so nice and seemed really interested in my conversations. The president spoke to the group and told everyone about the national awards the chapter had recently won. I felt like this was the perfect place for me. When I left, the girl I connected with the most told me that she was “glad we had this talk.” I was really looking forward to my future in this chapter.
Kacey Musgraves- We had a little break before this chapter and I could feel myself getting tired. Nevertheless, I put on my best excited face and entered the chapter hopeful. We don’t have sorority houses on our campus so the parties were scattered around campus in random community rooms. The room this chapter had was very small and echoed a lot. I could barely hear any of the three girls I talked to. The first one kept apologizing because she couldn’t start a conversation. The second one I liked okay. The third one was a girl I had as my orientation leader during the first week of school, but I was never very close with her. My overall impression was “meh.” They still didn’t stand out amongst the others.
Luke Bryan- This. House. These girls were by far the most beautiful girls I had ever seen. I was paired with the director of PR for the sorority (I am a PR major so I thought that might have been intentional). The girl was nice, but we didn’t really connect deeply. She basically told me about her favorite events. The second girl I talked to was the director of photography for the sorority (I’m also I photographer. Not a coincidence). She was also from the same state as me so we really hit it off. This girl became my instant rush crush. I was really hoping to be called back!
I left the night on a high note. My best friend texted me that night and said that the girls from Luke Bryan asked about me because they hadn’t seen me yet. I took that as a good sign. I couldn’t wait for round two.
