HTC's Fall '07 Rush Thread

Hey everyone! I am rushing this year, and just had water parties so I wanted to start my rush thread. I had so much fun, and cannot wait for formal recruitment to start! I'm just so excited about rush!!!!

For my nicknames, I'm doing types of pie. I haven't seen it done yet, and it was easy to come up with 9 pies.

In no particular order by sorority:

Apple: I really clicked with the girl here. I had so much fun, and our convo was awesome! She was so sweet, and from what I could see, so were all the other girls.

Banana Cream: My girl here didn't really seem interested in me. She wanted to find other rushees she knew. Everyone seemed really sweet, but I just didn't really feel it here.

Cherry: I absolutely loved my girls here! I had two, and they were both so awesome. Right away the second girl and I found something in common; I'm really excited about this group.

Coconut: Similar experience to Banana Cream. She seemed more interested in finding an uncrowded space near the AC than talking to me. Met a few really sweet girls during all of our traveling though.

Key Lime: Had some preconceptions about this group, and they were really not true, but I still didn't really enjoy my experience here. There was one active for two of us, and I felt really out of the conversation, although she tried to make me feel included. Saw a couple girls I know- they are so sweet, so I'm going to try to stay open minded

Lemon Meringue: LOVE LOVE LOVED this house! I know a few LMs and had an awesome experience here. Can't wait to go back

Peach: First house I visited- they had so much energy and seemed so enthusiastic! I loved my girl, and everyone else I met was so sweet and sincere. I'm glad this was my first house- it helped me feel more confident the rest of the day

Pecan: My girl was wiped out! This was near the end of the day though, so I'm not going to let that affect my opinion. I'm curious to see how it is during formal recruitment

Pumpkin: The girls here were so nice and welcoming, but I don't know if it's "me"... I'll just have to wait for formal to make up my mind.

So that's today. Formal starts in four weeks, so there won't really be any updates until then, but I am so excited for it to start!

Thanks for reading!

It sounds like you're really enjoying yourself, and I bet you're going to come out of this with some great new friends whether you pledge or not. Have fun!

I'm one for the classics... go Apple! Good luck and may you find the pie that says "home sweet home" to you!

*lol* We used to do a COR party called "Apple Delta Pi"!

Go Apple!

I'll quote Ralph Wiggum:

Go Banana!

Good luck to you! :-)

*But I'm a fan of Cherry and you seemed to like them much more than banana cream so, I'll root for Cherry.

What felt so far away such a short time ago is so close now! Convocation is in a week come tomorrow! I can't wait to post more about rush!

I'm confused; by the sound of your original post, it seemed like rush was already in progress. However, it now sounds like it hasn't started yet?

She is at Ole Miss. Recruitment hasn't yet begun, but you are correct. Her original post sounded like she had begun. Looks like she has done her research.
