Ok so on day 1 we went to five sororities. I went to gingerbread, stocking, lights, christmas tree and presents.
Gingerbread: This was my first house of the day, and even though the rho gammas warned us it would be loud, I wasn't thinking it would be THIS loud! WOW these girls had a lot of energy. They were jumping up and down so much that a picture fell off of their wall haha. So the first girl I was paired with was okay, the first thing she said was "tell me about yourself", so I did..hopefully I didn't talk too much. Then she asked me if my mom had been in a sorority, and so I told her she was in xyz sorority, and since we don't have it on our campus, she got really confused and asked if it was a real sorority
umm duh...Sorry but that gave me a bad taste in my mouth. If I'm invited back hopefully I'll meet some other girls.
Lights: The girl I was paired with was really sweet. She was super easy to talk to and we got along great. However, when it came time to do the cheers, they weren't loud at all. This made me feel like they weren't excited about their sorority or us being there. In my book I made the comment "Girls were nice individually but as a whole they lacked enthusiam".. if that makes any sense.
Stocking: I came in with some "prior knowledge" about this house. They were small and the girl I was paired with was hard to talk to. I actually wrote in my book that "she had something stuck between her 2 front teeth.." I know.. I'm horrible and superficial.. but I always notice things like that. It was hard for me to concentrate on what she was saying because of it. Nice girls, but not for me.
Christmas tree: The first thing the girl I was paired with told me that they had a house dog. Not that I don't like dogs, but I'm allergic and don't like them living inside. So the whole time all we talked about was dogs. This girl was seirously obsessed with dogs lol. The next girl I was paired with was really sweet, and didn't talk about dogs, which was nice. These girls are nice, but looking at it now, there's no way I would fit in.
Presents: This was a house that I had heard nothing about. I'll be honest.. their entrance creeped me out a bit. But it was nice. The girl I was paired with kept telling me how real the girls are and how everyone is friends with everyone. She kept emphasizing that they were real girls and not fake. She must have said it 10 times.. ok already. She was sweet though. This house seemed cool, I would like to go back and meet some more girls.
Ok so thats the end of day 1..I'm not trying to be mean in these, just honest. I'm just putting what I wrote down in my booklet. Looking back on it now, some of the things I said were so mean and superficial...oh well.

So I come from a family where all the women in the family belong to the same sorority. Literally everyone! My mom, grandma, aunts, counsins, second aunts, second cousins, you name it all belong to this one sorority. So needless to say I was a little disappointed when I realized my school didn't have it..
