Recruitment for a very Nervous mama....

... ok, well im not literally a 'mama', but i'm really nervous! Right now I'm watching the 40 year old virgin HOPING to keep my mind off rush (It's not working)...

I am going to try to reveal as little possible in order to maintain ambiguity. Rush meeting is tommorro and I don't really know what to expect. They asked for my t-shirt size on the registration form. I wonder if that means we wear identical t-shirts on the first day.

The day after the meeting is Day 1! I won't be able to post until after Day 1 since I am still moving all my stuff into my new home and have no internet access, but I will definitely post right after Day 1!

In the meannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnwhile, I need to come up with code names! Here's some I like, let me know which--if any-- strikes your fancy!

the OC characters
sorority/frat names from that ABC show 'Greek'
the Hills/Laguna Beach characters
my Fav Fast Food places
Looney tunes characters

Nah...that's just how they make cuts first day...I hope you didn't put down XXL.


Kidding of course. I think you should use the groups from the show Greek. That would be confusingish, but still fun.

you will probably wear the t-shirt at some point during your recruitment process. on campuses that do t-shirts, some have the pnms wear them the first day of recruitment, others have the pnms wear them on philanthrophy day

i also vote for "Greek" .

good luck!

"OMG the Foghorn Leghorns were so cute and I loved the skirts they had on!" bwah.

Either Looney Tunes or fast food places as I don't have a clue as to the characters' names.

DAY 1

Sorry for the delay…. No internet still. But I am sooooooo happy to see all the comments! Ok, so day 1=EXHAUTING. I definitely wore distinct jewlery to stick out. I hope it works. So Day 1 begins....
Daffy: I met a girl with many of the same interests as I did. I was also surprised to see many of the girls with piercings. It was ok, but I didnt r4eally feel the conection that most people say they have. I liked the house though. The philanthropy is right up my alley and the girls seem like they all like to have fun.
Wile E. Cotote: This house didn’t start off well. That definitely reflected the conversations after. The first girl I talked told me about her boyfriend doing drugs. I felt really uncomfortable. I did not like that at all. I was so thrown off because it was important for me to present myself like a lady and I did not know how to react after that conversation. Anyone I talked to after did not get my 100% since I kind of turned off (if that makes sense).
Porky: I talked to a few girls and our conversation was good. But I found myself getting bored. I was searching for conversation. I knew that i liked them since we had a good conversation flow, but I was not feeling it.
Bugs: I liked the decorations in the house. It was pretty. It was wierd because I totally froze when talking to some girls, but then everything went very smoothily with other girls.
Elmer Fudd: Their singing was cute, but reallllllly long! It must have been at least 15 min before we were paired to talk to a girl. Overall this party seemed really long.
Yosemite Sam: I haven’t heard much about this house, but everything really clicked. I was very surprised! We talked about brit’s vma performance and other celeb gossip.
Okay, I know this was brief, but I really liked all the sorority’s in one way or another. I felt like all the girls were similar. I met a girl in each house that I had some sort of similarity with. So when it came down to it, I chose my top four based on how I liked the t-shirts they were wearing. I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW, I should be figuring out what I see as ‘home.’ But I couldn’t do that. We only spent around 30-40 min at a house, so I knew I could not pick set my heart somewhere yet. I ranked:
Bugs
Daffy
Yosemite Sam
Porky

It was really disappointing for me to see so many girls that were going through recruitment with me talking so horribly about some of the sororities. Girls kept asking me which I liked and what I was going to pick, but I kept just saying that I don’t know or I don’t remember because I didn’t want to get caught up in what they were talking about. It makes me sad that some of these girls could be in my potential pledge class. I wish they would have just all made their decisions on their own rather than relying on what others had to say.... sorry for the rant.

Yay, go Daffy!!!

And Nervousmama, if that was a "rant", it was the most controlled rant I've read on these boards. You have got to be one of the most level-headed PNMs I've ever heard of -- I wish we could replicate you and put you through all of our recruitments on all of our campuses! Keep having a good time and keep that open mind! You will surely find the house that's for you. Can't wait to hear the next results!!!!
