thanks! I've been SO BUSY moving in yesterday and today, I am TIRED! We have recruitment orientation tonight, and everything starts tomorrow! We drove around and looked at all the sorority houses..and WOW they are all beautiful! Weather IS really hot here, but so far it hasn't rained (knock on wood) so I'm hoping it stays this way during the week. But one can only hope

Wow! The first day was SO much fun! It was really hot though..but my rho gam made us all cute fans! So that was nice. We went to 8 houses today, and we see 7 tomorrow. I'm really getting along with the girls in my rho gam group, they're all nice and it's comforting to know they're all nervous as me! Because there are just so many really beautiful girls here. OK so on to the houses..

I decided to name the houses after countries: (no particular order)
Spain
England
Ireland
Amsterdam
Italy
Greece
France
Germany
Switzerland
Wales
Scotland
USA
Canada
Austrailia
Mexico

Round 1 Day 1:
Spain--the first house I visited today was actually one I was really interested in before recruitment started. I was kind of nervous, but the girls I talked to were very friendly and nice and I enjoyed this house. Not as much as I expected I would, but I'd definitely love to go back.

Amsterdam--I wasn't expecting to like this house, they didn't seem like the kind of girls I hang out with. But once I started talking to them, I really enjoyed this house! I had some good conversations, but the second girl I spoke to seemed disinterested. I'd definitely love to go back to this house to learn more!

Greece--I was sort of interested in this house before recruitment began, but that really changed after talking to the girls. I felt so at home here, and I had AMAZING conversations with all the girls I spoke to! We sort of went off tangent with a couple things, but I felt very comfortable and at ease with these girls. They were very nice and very down to earth. I'd say they're my favorite of the day.

Wales--This house seemed ok. The girls were nice, but none of the conversations really went anywhere, and they seemed kind of forced. I don't think I'd fit in here, but I wouldn't mind going back to learn more.

Ireland--I only spoke to one girl during this round, which I thought was odd. The conversation was ok, but it seemed a bit forced. The girl I spoke to was nice though! Most of the girls in my group loved this house, but I didn't really feel a connection. I wouldn't mind going back to learn more though.

Italy--I REALLY enjoyed this house! The girls I spoke to were really nice and we had a lot in common to talk about. They were all down to earth and seemed very close, which I really liked. I was expecting this house to be my favorite before recruitment started, but I'd say it's a close second to Greece so far.

Mexico--I didn't know too much about this house before recruitment. The girls I spoke to were very sweet, but I just didn't get the right vibe from them. I'd love to go back and learn more, though, and speak to more girls.

France--I didn't know much about this house either, but I ended up really liking this house!! All the girls I spoke to were very friendly and nice, and when I talked to them, it felt like I was already their friend just having a normal conversation. I could definitely see myself as a sister here, I want to meet more people to get a better feel for the house though. I really hope to be invited back to them and learn more.


Overall, the first day was fun!! I didn't hear much, if any, "tent talk", and everyone was very open minded about all the houses which was really good. I'm glad I don't have to hear rumors and lies like that, because even if I know they aren't true, it still sort of sticks in the back of your head and leaves you wondering. It was VERY HOT today and those coffee filters definitely came in handy! All that ice water was very refreshing! I'm not as nervous anymore as I was, now that I've gotten used to it and know what to do and stuff. I can just relax and be myself a little easier. I'm excited for tomorrow! Wish me luck

The daughter of one of our alum chapter members here is an active in the Gamma Phi Beta chapter at FSU - she has been looking forward to rush!
