I know this has probably been a super stressful week for you, but I think that having TWO parties to go to today for Pref is awesome! It's obvious that the girls in the chapter see something in you and are sincere in their invitation to their Pref party.

My suggestion is to take a deep breath, go to both parties with an OPEN mind and see where your heart takes you. In your previous posts, you've said positive things about both these chapters, so remember that one girl who might not have had the best rushing skills should not deter you from being a member of a sorority with 150 other girls...who might just be your kindred spirits waiting to be your lifelong friends...

Give it a chance and don't lose heart. They are a lot of girls who either got released from recruitment or dropped out completely, I'm sure who would love to be in your place right now!

Best of Luck!

Great job southernpromise!!!! Keep an open mind and positive attitude. Also, I'm sure it's already been said, but during each party take a look around the room. Those women will most likely be your pledge sisters.

Listen to your heart, southernpromise! It will lead you home!

Rushing Skills

As she said above, not all have great rushing skills. My D went to a house that the rusher spent her ENTIRE time talking about the TV show "Laguna Beach" which my D had never seen in her life. So, she smiled and nodded the whole time. She basically gave her an update on the entire cast of characters with story/plot lines. D walked away thinking "okie dokie then" but oddly enough they preffed her.
Good luck and have fun.

good luck southernpromise. be sure to look around the room during prefs. and see who your potential new member sisters might be-that might help in your decision making.

Prefs has been over for hours! Where are the updates??
From the other side, however, I can say that I had an amazing time. The girls I preffed were sweet and wonderful and I had a great time pouring my heart out to all of them. I'm a crier, and I can't lie, I did shed a few tears during our ceremony (thankfully not during my conversation with each girl!). I hope my girls were as touched as I was!
