Sorry it's been so long since I've written! It's been a crazy week. Back to the tale!
So, I was slightly worried about fitting in, but things turned around after Swimming. So, I decided to continue on, even though I had a class schedule. I ended up doing half-parties. I LOVED this. One, I wasn't with my cruddy rush group, so their tent talk and negative attitudes couldn't impact. Plus, I got special attention from a lot of the houses because I was there only a short amount of time. (I wouldn't recommend doing it if you don't have to, obviously, but it isn't such a bad thing, PNMs.)
Volleyball was a beautiful house. The girl rushing me was so excited to be there! It really made me want to be a part of their sisterhood. She made me feel excited to become a Volleyball. I was sad to leave early.
Next was Gymnastics. I was in a seperate room from the other PNMs, which kinda made me feel awkward, but I was rushed by the President which made me feel special. We really got along well, too. They gave out GORGEOUS cookies here, which are one of two foods I remember from rush (besides all the Preference Party Cheesecake!)
LOVED Rowing. I loved the house, the girls, the idea, the location, the ideals, philanthropy, everything! Unfortunately, one of the girls rushing me seemed extremely bored by me. She twirled her hair, and was very monotone. I still loved the house anyways and could see myself there.
Basketball was pretty good, as well. (In retrospect, I know they are a top tier on our campus.) They were an excellent national organization with a stellar reputation. The girl who rushed me was actually my major so we got along very well. They were so huge, though! Over 100 girls! I was a little worried about being lost here, but they were so interesting.... I wanted to give them more time!
My last house was Water Polo. I don't remember much about them. They were completely unremarkable.
So, I went back to the commons to fill out our paperwork. I ranked:
1. Swimming
1. Rowing
1. Volleyball
1. Basketball
1. Gymnastics
1. Diving
1. Discus
1. Water Polo
2. Softball
3. Cycling
4. Judo
Then, I ran off to class....
