Raving Recruitment
I love electronic music so naturally this post is going to be named after DJs! If you know where I go to school feel free to message me but please do not post it on here. Thanks! I'll try to keep everyone posted but life as a new member is a little busy!
After moving in the day before and going to “get to know you” meetings, rush began in full swing….
The 13 houses at my school are:
Alesso
Calvin Harris
Duke Dumont
David Guetta
Marshmello
Martin garrix
Dillon Francis
Axwell Ingrosso
Tiesto
Chainsmokers
Diplo
Galantis
Martin Solveig
Round 1:
Alesso: Maybe I’m just blown away because it’s my first house, but the girl that picked me up at the door has the same name as my sister, and a very unique one too! I was bumped to the rush president so that is really cool. I feel wanted here.
Calvin Harris: Nope. The girl rushing me seemed uninterested in what I had to say. I didn’t get bumped, which was a bummer because I was hoping to talk to more than one person. Also weird because everyone around me was talking to multiple girls. “Good house” and most people around me enjoyed it but I left sad.
Duke Dumont: This has the reputation of having a ‘hippie’ vibe to it, but I got a great vibe there. The two girls I talked to there felt so real, I could honestly see myself in this sorority.
David Guetta: Hmm. I can tell these girls know how to rush. While the convo was good, the girl rushing me was desperately looking around the room trying to find the person who is supposed to stumble in and talk to me which made me feel weird.
Marshmello: Okay so this house is beautiful and this girl is really nice but they literally just got their house and have no history which is something I wanted. Cool but maybe not for me.
Martin Garrix: I love their mascot! But idk if I love this house. They feel a little bit less preppy than I am, and more laid back, which is fine, but maybe not for me. It doesn’t really seem like one that I could fit in well at, even though these girls are so nice.
Dillon Francis: I love it. Love it love it love it. The first girl I talked to seemed so genuine, and we talked about high school and how it's superficial, and she told me that was one of the reasons she loved this house, because it's not superficial. She’s in the same honors program as me and is telling me how important it is to take advantage. The second girl was just as amazing as the first!
Axwell Ingrosso: Shocked. I can’t believe I liked that house as much as I did. I think the girl I talked to also really liked me which is so exciting because I got such genuine vibes here too. I see myself here! She tried really hard to remember my name which is really good. When I talk about sisterhood I actually feel it here.
Tiesto: Going into this house was so exciting. This house is the ‘top house’ that everybody wants. The house is beautiful, the girls are beautiful and everything is very well done. I’d like to be able to come again, but I’m not sure if I fit in. Everyone was wearing fake eyelashes and they had tons of makeup on. Not really me.
Chainsmokers: Honestly I had a great conversation and really liked this house going in. It is another ‘top’ house but it really overwhelmed me how touchy they were. I could see myself here. They look really fun and preppy.
Diplo: This is my legacy house. Love love love loved it the second I walked in. It immediately felt like home! I can’t stop singing the song and I had great conversations! I walked out sufficiently freaked out because I was already so attached to a house and I didn't want to get my heart broken.
Galantis: It's fine. I know it's at a disadvantage because I just came from a house I love but I just wasn’t feeling it here. I had good conversations but I just didn’t get that feel like I got at Diplo and Dillon Francis.
Martin Solveig: So this was the last house of the day and I was SO tired. I thought the house was beautifully decorated but I just didn’t love the people I talked to. The conversations seemed a little awkward and forced. The girls are sweet but again, I didn’t really love it.
At the end of the day I had to have my top 10 and my bottom 3. It was kinda hard ranking them, but I thought I’d give Calvin Harris another shot. My bottom three ended up being - 1. Calvin Harris, 2. Martin Garrix and 3. Martin Solveig
