Day 2
Wildcats - I LOVED this house. I knew one girl in it. The first girl I was paired with was on exec, and we literally were so similar, even our names were almost identical! She seemed so down to earth and she made me feel comfortable and not like I had to impress her. Then the one girl I knew walked through the room and came and talked to me! I was so excited to see her because I love her. After that I felt super comfortable there. I talked with the one girl I knew for a minute and then she went back to her rotation and left me with the original girl. I think we might have screwed up the rotation a little because when she was finally bumped, I only talked to my next girl for maybe 30 seconds before I had to go.
Senior Elite - This house was LOUD. It was a little bit hard to focus because it was so loud, way louder than any other house (because all are loud but this was deafening.) I talked to the president here as well. My conversations with the girls were just okay, nothing too special. When they were bumping one girl said something to me and I actually had to have her repeat it because I couldn’t hear it at all – I didn’t even have an idea of what she said :/ I think my conversations were decent but I wasn’t that focused in here.
Coed Elite - I had okay conversations here. They weren’t fabulous but they were okay. One girl I talked to was in yearbook in HS, so we bonded over that and she was super excited to talk to another “yerd.” This was another house that I left without strong feelings about.
Orange - In this house I was paired with a girl that I sort of knew (barely acquaintances) from church. That gave us something to talk about besides the usual stuff, which was really nice. I liked this house and wanted to return to it.
F5 - I liked this house because we actually ventured away from “why did you come here” and “why are you rushing” type questions. The last two girls I talked to I clicked with more than the first girl. The house is beautiful so that helped as well!
Panthers - By this point I was exhausted and didn’t take good notes (oops.) I remember the girl I was talking to told me I was on the best couch in the house (which was nice later!) I don’t remember what we talked about but this was another house that I had a pretty good experience but no strong feelings about. We had weather issues again in this house! When the round was over the actives had to go to the basement or upstairs and we just had to sit in the house for a few minutes until the thunderstorm warning was over.
Steel - I didn’t even write notes about this house because I was preffing immediately after so I knew it would be fresh in my mind. I liked this house but it was just middle of the pack for me, no strong feelings once again.

Preffing was definitely difficult! After a lot of thought, I put down
1. Peach
2. Lady Jags
3. Senior Elite
4. Smoed
However, it really was hard for me to put down houses I didn’t want to return to! I was super torn and knew I would be happy to receive an invitation to any of the houses regardless of where I ranked them. However, the houses I wanted most on my list were Wildcats, WCSS, and TGLC.

This thread reappeared (I swear it was gone for a minute!!) so I'll finish the story here. Is there a mod I can tag to delete the "round 2" thread?
