ok, i've made all the changes relating to the princesses names. and i still cannot believe i didn't know that anastasia isn't a disney princess, but oh well.
last night we got our schedules for the next round, which is skit round. although the maximum number of houses we're allowed to visit during this round is six, they told us that a lot of the times people end up with three or four at this point. so, of course, i was really nervous to open my schedule when my rc handed it to me. but, we i eventually did, i found out that i would be returning to pocahontas, ariel, cinderella, mulan, jasmine, and snow white. i was thrilled to have a full schedule and even more excited when i realized that that schedule included cinderella and mulan! i was a little sad, though not completely surprised, about being cut from belle. for skit round i decided to wear a silver blue knee-length and three quarter sleeve silk dress and black knee-high boots, even though it was still freezing out.
SKIT ROUND
pocahontas- i was really happy that i was going back here. even though i still don't completely expect to end up here in the end, i have so much fun going to this house and visiting with the girls. unfortunately, i did not like the girls i spoke to during this round as much as i did the girls i met the first night. one of the girls made zero effort to keep the conversation going and genuinely seemed as if she did not want to be there. however, their skit was adorable! i really enjoyed it and laughed a lot. when i left pocahontas, i decided that even though i didn't enjoy it as much as i had last time, that i really liked the girls i had met in pocahontas on the first night, and i wanted to give this house another chance.
ariel- i had not been thrilled with this house during open house round. but this time i really enjoyed speaking with the girls. they were all really friendly, and i even ended up finding out that i'm in a class with one of them. i found myself questioning my reasoning for putting this house in my bottom two at the last post office and realized that much of it was purely superficial. their skit was very clever and really funny. though i wasn't sure that i wanted to rank them as one of my top four, i did leave ariel not completely writing them off this time.
cinderella- i am truly in love with cinderella! i talked to a whole new group of girls here today, and i loved every single one of them again. the conversations were very casual and easy, almost as if i was just sitting down chatting with some of my close friends. many of the girls i met the other night came over to greet me as well. their skit was most definitely one of my favorites of the day. the song they sang was very cute and catchy and watching them perform just really made me want to be a cinderella. i left this house in awe, and a little worried about how attached i was getting to cinderella so early on. every single girl i talked to who visited cinderella today is in love with this house.
mulan- i know i just said this about the last house, but i am in love with mulan too! i felt so comfortable here as well. i met a lot of new people and got to spend some time with my friend's friend, who is just really making me feel welcome in mulan. she introduced me to some of her friends in the house, and they were all really really sweet girls as well. the style of the mulan girls matches mine more so than that of any other house. the one drawback about mulan is that there a few girls i know who have legacy in this house, and are therefore guaranteed a bid, who i very much dislike. i do not like the idea of being in a pledge class with them at all. nevertheless, mulan very much impressed me with their skit. it was definitely my other favorite one of the day. these girls just seems so fun and close with one another. i really want to be a mulan. and am a little worried about how much i love this house too. ahhhhh!
jasmine- once again, the girls i met at jasmine were wonderful and sweet. the conversations were really comfortable and not at all boring or generic, as many rush convos tend to be. i feel like i have a lot in common with the girls of jasmine, and i would love to hang out with them, be friends with them, and maybe even be their sister. their skit did not impress me that much though. i really didn't find it that funny. for a second it had me doubting how much i like jasmine, but it is the girls not the skit that make up the house, after all. i really hope i come back here next round.
snow white- i was exhausted by the time i got to this house. as horrible as it sounds, i could not make myself try my hardest here. the girls were nice enough, and i did have some really good interesting conversations. their skit wasn't bad either. but, nothing about this house really stood out to be. i just can't see myself really being a snow white. so, this house went to the bottom of my list after today.
at the end of the night we had another post office ranking and my list went as follows:
1.cinderella
1.mulan
1.pocahontas
1.jasmine
2.ariel
3.snow white
tomorrow night we get our schedules and then monday is philanthropy round. i'm really nervous about losing either cinderella or mulan, but all i can do now is wait and try not to stress out about it too much. wish me luck!
