Day 3... continued
I walked confidentily to:
Serena van der Woodsen- Ok, so I got lead in and sat with a gorgeous girl. I DO NOT KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED, but we got into a political conversation! I know that is a big no no here on GC, but it happened. It wasn't bad, however we did have opposing views. I finally decided to stop it before it that debate got to be intense. I believe I said something like "dude, this is exactily why I want to be in a sorority. You meet so many girls and learn so much. I mean, it's great that I believe ______, but if I dont listen to other people's side, I'll never grow." WOW, that worked pretty well if I might say so myself. We talked about other things too. That girl (lets call her Jessie--I do not think I came up with a psuedo name for her) I met Day 1 and L-O-V-E-D came and crouched down wear I was sitting and said hi. Her face was so excited to see me, and so was mine! When she left, the girl told me that Jessie told her so much about me. I was so excited! I told her that I had Jessie was so fun! Later, I talked to another active, the conversation went great! EVEN SHE TOLD ME that Jessie was talking about me non stop!!!!!! SO IN LOVE!
I walked out of Serena kind of scared. what if that mini political debate was the end of me???? I mean the active I talked to about politics was older in the house. It would only make sense that she had more influence over her chapter than Jessie. SO NERVOUS!!!!
Ryan Atwood- "why am I even here?"-- I got that feeling again as I stood outside with the stunning PNM's. The actives at Ryan were so amazing, so fun, so refreshing. But everytime I stood waiting outside the house for the recruitment party to begin with the PNM's that were invited back to Ryan, I felt out of place. Well, not so much out of place, but I felt myself pulling out my MAC compact to do touch up. These PNM's were gorgeous. I guess thats good, maybe that will make me a little more concious of my appearance (I am one of those girls that gets ready to go out to parties or events.... I don't really where make up to go to class or study). So maybe this house could help me always be presentable. But then I thought-- I don't need a sorority to make me feel out of place. I needed a sorority that would make me feel a part of them. Hope this makes sense. The doors opened and the party began. I got paired with this pretty cool girl. The active I met day 1 came to say hi to me. after about 20 minutes of great conversation, I could feel the recruitment party comming to a close. So she asked "Do you have any questions about recruitment or pref". Now, keep in mind, I talked to this girl for so long (the entire party!) We really clicked and we didnt talk about one recruitment thing. I really felt like I could be way honest with her. So I said "I love recruitment so far! everyday is so exciting. But.... theres this one house that keeps inviting me back.... Seth Cohen. I keep putting them at the bottom of my list, but they just keep making it onto my list. I am kind of confused by that." I continued to tell her about that one girl who deactivated and told me alot of the ritual and how I felt that ritual is so important and now I just felt like seth cohen wasnt special in my mind. The active just sat and nodded and then said "yah, we werent expecting so many girls to go through recruitment this year. So the computer program we are using is on overload". I left the house feeling happy. I got genuine advice.
Seth Cohen- I did not even know why I was here. I decided to just look disinterested in everything. I realize that they worked hard on their recruitment and should not have to tolerate a PNM to be so unclassy. But I had no classy idea how to tell them that I was not interested.
Marissa Cooper- I did the same thing here that I did at seth cohen. I already knew what my top 2 would be.
now to the ranking (2 number 1's)
1 Serena
1 Ryan
2 Marissa
3 Seth
