SORRY! I didnt even realize I used colors at the begining. No blue in my first post is actually orange. However by some weird twist of fate, green is still green. Ha! Crazy huh.
So I waited till this morning to post since I didnt get home last night till about 12:30 and I was beat. I was asked back to 4 out of 7 houses, which was to be expected. What wasnt to be expected was that the house that I had the rec for dropped me. Im not going to lie, I have had my heart set on that house both times! I was just really hard to look down at my list of parties and see that it just wasnt there. So here they are in the order I visited them:

Red: I hate this house. I cannot stand them, they kept asking me back last year, and I really do not want to be in this house. I look around and know that I wouldnt be happy there. I dont like there events, I dont like there foundings, I dont like the conversation I had with the girls. They sat us down and had us talk to ONE girl for 45 minutes. I talked to this girl about her major and applying for grad school and taking the GRE's. Not a fun conversation piece.

Yellow: Nice room, cute theme, wish this house were stronger on campus. Again I took all things into consideration and just know that by talking to the girls that I wouldnt fit in there. I was uncomfortable and I was double rushed so conversation was very forced.

A three hour break in which I caught my toe under a heavy glass door which proceeded to rip off a large chunk of my cutely painted toes. Ouch. Oh and while talking to girls on my THREE HOUR break I lost my voice, and had the hardest time talk to girls in my next two parties.

Blue: I had so much fun here again. The conversations was great, and looking around the room I really felt the girls were alot like me. It was hyper and the slideshow went along to show that they LOVE wearing crazy outfits. I LOVE WEARING CRAZY OUTFITS!! They were so great I didnt realize the 45 minutes were up

Indigo: I felt a little intimidated here. THe first girl I talked to was a little slow, and we found it kind of hard to get the ball rolling (she was IN my rho chi group last year) and when the next girl came the conversation was great, it was desperate house wives, then football, then the love of rivals (school wise not people). It was alot of fun, I just felt the overall "attractiveness" of the house was really intimidating.

So here was the nightly rankings if you didnt guess:
1. Blue
2. Indigo
3. Yellow
4. Red

There are few sad endings to this story. One is that I woke up this morning with a swollen tongue. I have a grapefruit tongue, a bloody toe, and no voice. This is painful. Also tonight we get knocked down to four houses. And of the four I got last night, theres only two that I am even remotely considering. I knew as a re-rush it would be hard, but honestly had I not been having all this physically trying epidemics, I wouldnt be so upset. I cant even lick my lips. But another sad ending is that if I had four last night, I may not get four today. It goes 9,7,4,2. And I already know what houses I want to pref. I am just hoping that I make it far enough to pref. them. I've also been writing updates to the woman who gave me rec. and had to break the news to her that I was no longer going to be in her house. Unless some never before seen strings get pulled and I get asked back. Yeah thats just not gonna happen. So I am sitting here extremely nervous since I dont want to get knocked down to 3,2, or 1 house tonight. GAH STRESS!!
