Ok so I was super nervous about this night. I mean this would be the night that could make me or break me! So I get there at about 5, I get my schedule and I feel my heart breaking. I got dropped from
SCONE!!! The group that I had ranked as my number one the night before. I was sitting there waiting for the events to start and a bunch of girls were talking about who they got invited back to and they were like "Scone, and I didn't even like them..." I was IN LOVE with them and I thought the girl and I had clicked so well! I was REALLY disappointed. I had also gotten dropped by
Cookie but I didn't mind. The girls were nice, but way to reserved and conservative for me. So my schedule looked like this:
6:10 - Break (yeah, break first, haha.)
7:00 -
Pie (so freaking excited to be invited back here! I ranked them 2nd last night and a BUNCH of girl got cut from them!)
8:00 -
Cake (also really excited and surprised to be invited back here! I ranked them 3rd the night before and again and a ton of girls got cut from them!)
8:50 -
Muffin (shrug)
I looked amazing! I got so many compliments on my outfit, and on how brave I was to wear heels a second night in a row. These were wedges though so they were way easier to walk in.
Pie: I am still super big fan of this group. The girl who rushed me was really sweet, we talked about majors and school. It's really hard to remember exactly what kind of conversation I had with this girl, just because they are all starting to really mesh together. They showed a super cute slide show/movie about what sisterhood means to them. I could definitly see myself as a part of this group
Cake: I was really kind of struck at being invited back to this house. They are really 'prestigious' on my campus and I thought they only took freshman. I walk in and I am talking to a girl whom I had Social Stratification with last year. She is such a sweet girl. Within seconds we were talking and laughing and having an amazing time. Sisters again were added into the conversation, rather than switching completely which again I totally appreciate
Then like 10 of them stood at the front of the room and told personal stories about what the sorority means to them and how much cake changed their lives. My friend walked up and gave me a hug and told me how glad she was that I was there. Then another girl that I kind of know came up and was also really excited I was there. Then the girl that rushed me the first 2 nights tapped my shoulder when we were leaving and was like "I'm so glad you're back!" I know that they are supposed to be super nice to everyone, but being approached by 3 different girls and told how exciting it was to them to have you there, I can't help but take that as a good sign, you know? I had so much fun with this girl tonight and not only that but she is totally not your stereotypical sorority girl, she is a super hippy like tree-hugger girl and I love that about her. Their group really seems very diverse! I like this group so much and I am so glad I got invited back
Muffin: I was kind of annoyed that I got invited back to this house, a lot of girls did that ranked them last and they just didn't go. I was not about to be that disrespectful, so I went trying to have an open mind about it. Their room was super cute! It was decorated like Tiffany's with the little boxes and bags all over. I loved it, and I just happened to be wearing a Tiffany's necklace. The first girl to rush me tonight was the second girl who rushed me yesterday night. It was kind of easier talking to her tonight because there wasn't so many people talking at once. She is the philanthropy chair and I really appreciated how passionate she was about their philanthropy. Then she got bumped and this second girl was like straight up pulling teeth. She was so awkward and had nothing really legitimate to say about the sorority. I was asking her all the freaking questions and her answer to everything was "I really love the girls." But said in a really non-convincing voice. To me, if you have girls that aren't super good at talking with people or have poor conversational skills, don't have them participate in rush because it makes you look really bad and unprepared and to be honest I have never been more annoyed or turned off from a group. *sigh* I just feel bad for them to be honest because they have been like this to every girl I have spoken with and I have not heard one girl say "OMG! I love Muffin!" we are all just kind of going to their parties to not be disrespectful.
At the end of the night I ranked them as such:
1. Cake
2. Pie
3. Muffin
Tonight is Preference Night and you can get invited back to a maximum of 2. Cross your fingers for me that I get invited back to my top 2 so I don't have to suffer through an muffin party! I would love to be a part of both of my top 2, like I see nothing negative about either group! I am so nervous though! My recruitment counselors told us that if we got dropped by both of our top 2 they would call us and ask us if we wanted to continue with our bottom choice. I haven't gotten a call yet, so lets hope this is a good thing! I was actually praying last night to be invited back to my top 2 and get into one of them. This has been an amazing experience though for me! I have had a lot of fun and met a bunch of awesome girls!
OMG! I almost forgot the most unfortunate part about tonight! I completely lost my voice! Like nothing comes out of my mouth except for random squeaks when I do try and talk! My husband looked at my throat and says it looks like I have puss pocket on my throat! God Damn it! Hopefully it's just phelm because my allergies are acting up! I have no insurance to go to the doctor so I'm pretty much screwed! But I have to go tonight and try to make the best impression of my life without a voice! Now I know how Ariel felt! Haha.
Wish me Luck!!!!!
