Hi guys! Well I have a little bit of time right now while waiting for my toenail polish to dry before I can go to sleep. Rush at Mizzou has been insane thus far. The first day, 16 party day, was 106 degrees outside and it was insane. Today the panhellenic computers broke down and the parties were supposed to be 40 minutes long and start at 10 am I think. Instead they ended up being only 35 minutes and our passing breaks were cut to 7 from 10 minutes and parties did not start until nearly 3. Panhel did an AMAZING job however of dealing with everything and the girls in my chapter are very laid back and flexible so we weren't too fazed by the events. Once the parties started after dinner though a huge rainstorm started and we couldn't walkout so that was kind of a mess. Also I fainted from the heat earlier around the 5th party after hyperventilating because I got so overheated, it sucked!!!!
Overall though rush has been a blast and I am having a lot more fun than last year. I've gotten a TON of girls though asking me all the "bad' questions and it's been tricky to try and stay away from those subjects. I even had some girl asked me where we were "ranked" on the sorority tier based on our reputation!
All three of my rush crushes came back today though as well as all but two of our legacies so that is REALLY exciting!
Tommorow is 5 party day, house tours and philanthropy day and I believe the parties are 45 or 50 minutes long and we'll start at 1:30. Tomorrow is going to be a long day though, we have to be ready at 9 am and we won't be done with decorating for pref and meetings and whatnot until well into Thursday morning!
Our pref ceremony makes me cry everytime we practice it so I really need to work on controling my waterworks for Thursday!
I probably won't have time to update until after rush, but if I can I will try!
I heard that quota is going to be about 67 and there are something like 1100 girls who started rush!
Sorry this is so long guys.
