Oh my God......I and my close friends were insane with rush!!!!!!! The "rush crush" phenomena started for me as a rushee.....my Rho Chi hung out with these other Rho Chis and being naive, I assumed they must all be from different chapters or else they wouldn't be allowed to hang out together all the time. Well I was convinced that my RX was a DG, which was fine with me because I was really hot on them, especially the first 2 parties. So then I decided that one girl was an Alpha Phi and the other might be a DG or a Chi O......anyway when I ended up going Chi O I thought Shannon (my RX) was going to be upset because I knew she really seemed to like me.....I was the only girl in my rush group to get Chi O and she just acted kind of strange about it. So then when they revealed.....ALL 3 OF THEM WERE CHI Os!!!!!!!! They laughed when I told them what I had thought they were, and they told me that they thought for sure I was going Delta Gamma (which is funny because I didn't even preference them.)
On the other side of rush, my 3rd year this little girl came in the house and I fell in love. She looked like a baby, just this sweet, pretty little thing. She was very preppy and had this white-blonde hair (but not fake, REAL blonde hair) and rosy cheeks and the bluest eyes you have ever seen in your life that weren't fake. She just looked so sweet.....she was like a little ray of sunshine. We HAD to have her. I can't go into detail without revealing privileged information but suffice it to say that I completely hijacked her from another girl and I personally took her around for the rest of the party. I rushed her every party after that and I worked it HARD.....she was leaning between us and another chapter and she was THAT girl that every chapter wanted that year........but whose little did she become shortly therafter?????!!!!WHO'S YOUR MAMA!!!!!!!!?? Hee hee.
One last story is that my senior year, I was hanging with my girls at the first party (there was a group of us affectionately called the "Posse" who were inseperable) and these little rushees came in. This one girl was just darling, with this perfect little bob and perfect little bangs, and she wore a lavender Polo button down with a long khaki skirt and bucs......she looked like a soccer mom and she was only 18!!!!!!! Anyway my friend Lori took one look and was like "She's yours.....go get her, Tiger." And this rushee was hanging out with another girl, very athletic, tall, with a very short platinum bob-type haircut....Lori took one look and was like "Mine!!!!!!!" So we zeroed in on them and after that party, Lori's tagline was "I want to make love to 'Susie Smith'...." My crush, Ashley, was a big fave too. She was very nice and composed beyond her years....my little (see rush story above) rushed her too but it was to no avail........(sigh) We lost her and Lori's crush to Delta Gamma (gggrrrrr.) On a side note, Ashley ended up marrying one of Brent's fraternity brothers, and we were invited to the wedding. When I sat in on bid matching last week there was at least one advisor from each chapter there.....I had been hearing about this darling little DG advisor who always showed up in twinsets and pearls late at night when the other advisors were in t-shirts and sweats........I'm there and the door opens and in walks Ashley!!!!!!!!!! I was dying!!!!! She told me that she remembered our conversations from rush!!!!!!!! (I remember what she wore but I have no idea what we talked about.........sheesh) She asked me about Laura, my little, too. It was kind of funny. And true to form, she was there in a pink twinset, tweed slacks, and pearls when the rest of us all wanted to be in our PJs...........love her!!!!
