Last night I visited two houses.
House #5: I was so sure these girls were going to cut me after First Rounds, so I was thrilled when they didn't! I liked these girls a lot -- so much enthusiasm and energy. The first girl I talked to knew that I was a sophomore, and where I had transferred from before I even told her. It took me a little while to realize that no, she hadn't talked to me before -- she had been studying the rushee cards! They had a cute '50s theme.
House #4: I liked this house so much! I didn't really get a good feel for it the first time around, but the house tour helped a lot. The house itself is so adorable! It used to be the Governer's Mansion, and apparently the third floor (now bedrooms) used to be a ballroom, so all the bedrooms there have wood floors. And it seems like they have a really good mix of girls with lots of different interests -- when we were looking through the rooms, I saw posters of everything from Abercrombie hotties to Jim Morrison. The girls seem to be really involved with a lot of things, which is important to me, and one of the girls I talked to was telling me little things about the house, like how Fridays are her favorite days in the house because they'll all hang out and chill for a while after classes, and then later that night around nine they're all in the bathroom with curling irons and makeup getting ready. I like hearing the little banal details about Greek life and living in the house so that was really fun.
So I've done all that I could for now . . . now it's up to the houses to pick, and hopefully I'll be able to go back to a couple of my favorites for Pref.
