valleygirl22's rush!

Hey guys! I posted already about my rush in the Greek Life forum, but a couple people told me to post it here instead, so here goes! My rush starts October 3rd through October 6th. I have my Rush Information Meeting tommorrow at six thirty. I'm so excited! My school is really small, so my rush probably won't be as exciting as most. The two sororities at my school are Phi Sigma Sigma and Gamma Phi Beta. I never thought I would rush a sorority and now I'm so excited to part of the Greek System. Thanks to all you guys for showing the positive side of Greek life. I'll keep you all posted! Wish me luck!

Of course your rush will be every bit as exciting as every other rush!!! I can't wait to hear all about it, so please don't spare us a single detail. Good luck and have fun!!

Did you go to school in Bakersfield? I have a lot of friends and some family that went to school up there, even though I can't remember what schools each one is from! I'd wonder if you'd know any of them though?!

Good luck with rush! You're going to have the best time and please keep us updated!!!

Hey ladies! I had my rush infomation meeting tonite. Everything went pretty well. There were about 25-30 girls there. The only bad thing, was that pretty much every girl there came with a friend, so they all just talked to each other and not everyone else. Another odd thing was that most of the girls were juniors or seniors. I think it actually has to do with Sorority Life, you know? The girls saw that show and now they wanna rush. Hopefully, all the PNMs are nice though and we have agood time. Here's my schedule:
THursday - Social Events with both sororities
Friday - Social Events with both sororities
Saturday - Social Events with both sororities, but a little more formal than the other two days
Sunday - Preference Night, by invitation only. (we'll get our invites by noon sunday) Then we sign our bid cardsat 9:00pm
Monday - Bid Day, we pck up our bids between 8:30 and noon.
I'm excited!!! I'll write you all after the first nite of bids!!

Good luck!

All rush threads are fun, the size doesn't matter!

I didn't have a formal rush at all, I just rushed Gamma Phi Beta and that was it. I hope you find it to be as awesome as I did, but if not, I know you'll find a great home!

Good luck with recruitment! This is one case in life where size doesn't matter, and you are going to have a wonderful time! Your outfit sounded really cute for info night. Have you thought about what you'll be wearing for the others? (I *love* hearing about clothes! )

Was there someone last year who went through at this same school and posted? Just curious because GPhiB & Phi Sigma Sigma as the only houses together sounded familiar.......

STRESS!

Oh my goodness! I am stressing out because i'm having problems with my work schedule getting in the way with rush, but i think it will work out. Hopefully! For those of you who care about clothes, the rush here is pretty informal, so first nite of socials i'm going to wear cute jeans with a maroon long sleeved top with slit open arms and ties on the botton and black boots. friday nite, we have socials again and i'm gonna wear hip hugger jeans and a nice collared striped shirt, (it's cute, it's hard to explain), with only a couple bttons buttoned and a white tank to underneath and some tan boots, saturday we have a little dressier socials so i'm going to wea a jean knee length skirt, a purple see through lacy shirt with a white tank underneath and purple sandals, than sunday is preference nite that is supposed to be dressy so i'm gonna wear a light blue strappy dress ith flowers on it and white sandals. i'm excited!

Good heavens! White shoes after Labor Day! <faints>

Well, it wouldn't fly in the South, but they're more relaxed other places ... I know people who have never even heard of that rule!

I'm giving you a hard time, but your outfits sound cute. And I have noticed that the PNMs who wear something other than black to pref really do stand out.
