KitKat's Fall Recruitment story

KitKatMac · #1 09-17-2006, 10:51 PM

Ok well today was house tours. I went today to find out what houses I got invited back to and I was cut from capricorn, virgo and scorpio. So today I went to Gemini, Aquarius, Libra and Pisces. I have to admit I was a little dissapointed when I received my invites because our recrutiment conselours has made it seem like almost no one gets cut the first day so I wasn't really expecting it. But then I found out alot of girls received cuts and near the end of the day when I was sooo tired I was kind of glad I only had four houses I had to go to lol. Actually 2 of the houses that cut me cuz aloooooot of girls, I guess there very selective. I figure in the end your only going to end up at one house anywayz.
So the first house of the day was....
Gemini- I went here first again today. I really enjoyed it again and the girls were all really nice but I still don't feel like I fit in there. There house was really cute and I liked there theme for the day. I also am not sure if i liked it more because it was the first house of the day, I do hope I get asked back her again for skit day. At the moment this is probably my second favorite.
The next house was...
Aquarius-I really liked this house again. I was glad that they had everyone in the living room and kind of staggered who started touring the house so that everyone wasn't trying to tour people at once. I loved there house and could definitley see myself living there. I've liked everyone I've talked to at that house so far. I'm reallly hoping to get asked back there tomorrow and I'm really scared/nervous for it.
The 3rd house was...
Libra-This house was really spacious. They had a nice slideshow that they showed us that I liked. The girls were really friendly but I just don't feel totally comfortable there. There house is also veery far away and I already live kind of far away this year and I know it is something I'm not really interested in.
The last house of the day was...
Pisces- If I had had the choice I was planning on cutting this house but I didnt mind going there. The girls are really nice and friendly and you can tell they enjoy there house. There were a few things I did not like, such as them having a bar in there basement and that there sorority is really small. If they invite me back, I will probably go back but I'm unsure if thats where I'd want to be permanetley.

So today was a really tiring day but also interesting. One thing i felt bad about is that after awhile I would run out of questions to ask at the different sorority member and I felt like maybe they would interpret that as me being uninterested but I just really wasn't sure what else to ask. I'm very scared about my invites for tomorrow, especially because I've already grown very attatched to Aquarius. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be updating with good news.

my house had a bar in the basement. it wasn't that we made it or had it built for our chapter or anything. our house had been purchased by the college. they were basically buying up properties near the school, so we just ended up with a bar in the basement. we basically used it to put out snacks during events and it was the home to this GIANT lion someone had given us. the fun thing was that it was tiled pink!

So how did it go???

KitKatMac · #11 09-18-2006, 11:11 PM

Well I have to say I think today was my favorite day so far. Or i guess i should say night.
I started the night with...
Aquarius- Tonight they were once again definitley my favorite and I've gotten really attached to them. There skit was based on mtv and it was really funny. And they served milkshakes and popcorn that was wicked good. I feel like I connected with everyone really well so I'm hoping there on my invite list tomorrow.
Next up was...
Libra- There skit was also cute, it was based on Grease. They served cupcakes in ice cream cones that I thought were really cute and rootbeer floats and strawberry shakes. I still haven't really felt a connection to anyone in this house though even though it is a really nice house.
Third up was..
Pisces- I was kind of dissapointed because even though this was skit night, they didn't do a skit they just showed a slideshow of pictures of people in the chapter then had us play a little game. The food was really good though, pizza rolls, strawberry shakes, popcorn and chex mix. Im pretty sure this isn't the right group for me though.
The last house of the night was...
Gemini- They also had a great skit that I really enjoyed. They served soda and soft pretzels and everything went with there theme and was great. O there theme was baseball lol. I was a little nervous because they were like o your almost in our colors, which I had no idea they were there colors, and so i explained that its the same color as my birthstone so I have many things that color. They also mentioned how the panhel president had mentioned me, and that i knew her, which i had purposely not mentioned to anyone throughout recruitment but o well. I like this house but I feel like it's not so much that ive connected with anyone its more that the girls are so nice that i feel like i should like it. I have a feeling preference night will be the big deciding factor for me.

Tomorrow during the day I go get my invites and decide where I'm going to be going for preference night which starts at 5:30. I'm hoping everything goes well and I'll update you guys tomorrow.

Good luck!! I'm rooting for Libra since its the closest to me.

Buttonz · #13 09-19-2006, 01:54 AM

Have a great time tomorrow night.

It's okay not to like a house, as long as you don't like them for the right reasons. Don't feel like you have to like a house because they are all so nice, etc.

I really hope Pref night helps you sort out how you feel.
