Can I please tell you all how much I LOVE DELTA ZETA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Open House was really cute. It was in the Reitz Union longes (they are really pretty) and there were decorations everywhere. SO we all walk in and there is a sign in table, a name tag table, and then there is a third table for interview sign ups. I didn't go to the informal info sessions in the past few weeks because I emailed Holly Wainscott about a philanthopy question I had, and she said that since I saw the presentation during formal recruitment, I would probably be bored because it was the same one...so tonight was my first DZ event! My interview time is Friday at 10am, and then Prefs are the same night 8 pm...Those poor interviewers will only have a four hour break in between the last interview and Preferentials! Apparently, you will be notified by phone if you are invited to Prefs...and if you don't get a call...you aren't invited! :'(

The structure of Open House was a little odd. You sort of just wander around three rooms and there was a really cute video playing...There was food and drinks and a cute table full of DZ items like bracelets and visors and t-shirts and stickers! Such cute stuff! And there were scapbooks laid around full of pictures and memory items!

I spoke with a few FSU DZ's and my roomate knew one of them. They were all really sweet and we had great convo's about Delta Zeta and other stuff too. Like she is coming to Gator Growl becuase her boyfriend is here...etc...not just Delta Zeta stuff, whcih was nice. I also had a LOT of chances to meet the girls that could be my future sisters. I think the Open House was structured so informally in order to give us all a chance to talk. I met sooooo many sweet girls. A few I even exchanged numbers with in case we didn't see each other at Prefs! All of them were GREAT! I was a little worried that it would be all Freshmen there and since I am a Sophomore, I was excited to see many older girls too!

I tried to tell myself not to become too invested in all this in case it doesn't work out, but I am so excited for my interview!

Oh my gosh!!! I love Dee Zee! It was awesome and I love the attitude that the nationals have! They are putting so much work into it, and they want to make this chapter rock! It's so hard not to get to excited, but I just can't help it! I love their national officers that came! They answered so many questions about colonization and building a house and alumni stuff. I can't wait for my interview on thursday. I think I'm going to wear a goldish khaki skirt and this gator blue shirt with split sleeves (I would wear pink, but I think that would be a bit too much!). Question though: I met this girl tonight that has the same name as me, but we have totally different spellings, personality and looks. How can I tactfully tell my interviewer that there are two of us so she is sure to differentiate? I wouldn't something to happen because of a technicality. I have some other questions, so if any of you have been involved in colonization, esp for DZ, please feel free to PM me!
Thanks,
