If you are concerned about revealing too much information then please edit your post and delete the actual sorority names and the date of your rush. I was able to figure out in less than 3 minutes where you went to school. If it doesn't bother you then leave it, but discretion is the key. You never know if you may say something that can be misconstrued....

Day One

Sidenote: Thanks WarEagle07! I edited it

Day One. Parties Lasted for 45 minutes and conversations covered the basics (major, activities..)

I got up and had NO CLUE what to expect.
We actually had a girl faint before the first party out of nervousness.

Watermelon was my first party. This house had a good reputation of sweet girls that loved each other and their sorority. I spoke with three girls at this house and conversation flowed easily. I did have a rec for this house. Overall I enjoyed this party.

BubbleGum came next. This house was known as the cookie cutter rich girls. I didn't want to judge this house before I got to know any of them so I went in hoping for a great conversation. I had two recs for this house. I spoke with three girls and the conversation was almost TOO sweet. Topics ranged from shopping to designer purses to parties. This house was still in my top though because its girls had pretty good GPAs and a strong bond.

Rasberry was up next. This house was known for its girls being artsy/hippy/or free-spirited if you will. I had one rec for this house and a friend in the sorority. I talked to two girls here and conversation focused on me mostly. I did notice how much the girls loved each other, but I still wasnt sure about the house.

Orange was my next party. This house has a reputation of having ALOT of girls from the same geographical area, and though the girls didnt look alike, hair styles and makeup looked the same. I had a one rec for this house. Conversation was somewhat easy but I only met with one girl so it was hard to get a picture of the chapter as a whole.

Grape came next. This was the only house I had no recs for. I had a few friends in this chapter that I liked, so I went in hoping to meet new girls that I also clicked with. Conversation forcused on both me and how much the sister love each other. This house went on my good list.

Sour Apple was up next. This house had a reputation of being smaller but dedicated. I spoke with only one girl again for the whole party, and my conversation was somewhat forced. These girls seemed somewhat nervous and akward, but I could tell that they had a deep bond with one another.

Pink Lemonade came last. I had two recs for this house and a few friends here as well. This was my last party so I was a little tired. I spoke with three girls here and conversation went easy. Topics included me, the school itself, the Greek Life as a whole, and the bond between sisters. This house was upbeat and fun. It also went on my good list.

That night we chose our top 5 in random order, then our bottom two in ranking order.

Here is how it was broken down:
Top 5-Watermelon, Bubblegum, Pink Lemonade, Orange, and Grape
Bottom Two- Rasberry then Sour Apple

I went to bed that night with most of my nervousness gone and then excitment for Philanthropy Day which came next!!
