thanks guys for your nice words!!

well, the houses I visited today were:

Mexico-- The girls were all sweet, but for some reason I didn't feel comfortable there. I think because we had one sister for two PNMs, I felt kind of awkward--the other girl I was with was very outgoing, and I tend to be a bit more on the quieter side. I could see these girls as being my friends, but I don't think that today went very well at this house.

England--I was VERY surprised to be invited back to this house. These girls are all nice and I had a good conversation with the girls I spoke to, but they aren't the type of people I can really see myself with. While it'd be an honor to be a part of this sorority, realistically, I cannot see myself fitting in here. I'm just happy that they felt they wanted to get to know me better!

Greece--WOW. They were my favorite house during the first round of recruitment, and it seems theyre my favorite this round too. I LOVED this house!! The girl I spoke to was sooo nice and we had an excellent conversation! I enjoyed touring the house and learning about their philanthropy, it was very touching. I really really really hope to be invited back for skit day!

Other than the one rain shower, the weather today wasn't too bad. It started cooling down as it got later in the day. I was kind of sad when I learned that many of the girls in my group got invited back to around 9 or 10 houses this round, but I know that some of the houses I wasn't invited back to I wouldn't have fit in anyways, so it's easier to cut me now than to lead me on into liking their group even more later. One group, Italy, I really loved. I knew I could see myself in their sorority, I even had a great rec for them, I clicked really well with the girls I spoke to, I'm very upset that I wasn't invited back to them. I heard they were big on grades and GPA, and since mine didn't quite measure up (not to say it was a bad gpa!), I think that's why I might have been cut from them. It (my gpa) just wasn't competitive enough. But if I end up at Greece or Spain, I'm going to be happy and I won't look back. I'm just praying everything goes well, and if I was meant to be in a certain sorority, it will happen. And of course, I'll keep you guys updated!

Hang in there, NoleGirl!

As everyone says, it only takes one. My daughter is going through the same thing right now at Texas A&M. Stay positive -- You're doing great! Love your idea of naming GLOs for countries! Classic!

I love your code names, by the way! Rush really does feel like travel.

Good luck!

Nolegirl, you ARE doing great. I am wishing all the best for you today and am thinking that you could be walking down the sidewalk right now beside my daughter going to the next house. Your honest and open attitude is wonderful. Sounds like you would be a great addition to any house. I'm enjoying your thread very much.
