The Proverbial Ugly Duckling?
It's mid rush week, one our break day here, and I think I've found my two choices, and I'm hoping they think the same of me, but I've always suffered from what some may call fragile self esteem. It's a by-product of high school in which I was not the top rung of the social ladder.
It hit me hard yesterday looking at all the glamour queens and upper-class girls running around, while I'm a little plainer and of different tastes. I'm more into a dark style, gothic if you will, but I feel I dress fine (skirts, nice blouses, tasteful hair cut, even if it is black. Tasteful makeup. Etc.) I'm a little introverted but I come out into the open air in good company. But I've felt almost intimidated by some of the sisters and the presence of other rushees. I don't let it affect my own presentation, but it does trouble me now and then.
But I always think "What if they don't like me? What if I don't appeal to any of their tastes? I wonder what they think of me? I hope they are not put off by my appearance. I just hope they think I am worth their time..."
Needed to get that off my shoulders...thanks.
