Well, I went to my first night of first rounds tonight! We visited four nice houses! I'm doing this in a tactful way which I saw someone (I forgot who) do...I'm just numbering the sororities when I talk about them, instead of naming them, to be fair, so here it goes...

#1 was really cool. For my first house, they helped me relax and not be so nervous. The three girls I talked to were nice and told me about things, including their philanthropy. They also had a great skit!

#2 had a really great vibe at their house, with the fun and talented girls. Their skit was pretty humorous though, and even though one of the girls wasn't as easy to talk to, I think the girls were pretty cool.

#3 was probably my least favorite out of the night and I probably won't go back there next round. They were nice and claimed they had an excellent cook, but they just weren't as outgoing or easy to talk to as the other houses we visited.

#4 was definitely my favorite out of the night, and I could see myself there. They had such an awesome vibe of sisterhood and fun throughout the house and of course their theme was awesome! The three girls were really easy to talk to, so easy that we talked about a lot more than just the whole rush process and "where are you from" etc...

I'm excited to see more of the houses tomorrow night! We get to visit three houses tomorrow night. Wednesday we're taking a break for September 11, but we see the other 4 houses on Thursday night...I'll keep ya updated as soon as I learn more!

Hey Badger rushee...sorry I didn't get the message before now, so I couldn't look for you! If it helps, my name's Nicole

But anyway...

We visited three houses tonight with a nice ice cream/mexican food break in the middle of it all

#5 I liked a lot. The girls seemed to be pretty genuine and close, which I liked a lot. Their philanthropy project sounded really fun too. This time I asked questions and did a lot of talking, but I didn't have any problems or really any awkward moments, so that was cool.

#6 Upon hearing their entrance music and seeing their decorations, it was eerily similar to #3. The girls seemed nice, but I decided that this sorority wasn't for me. They also don't have a house, which I would really like in a sorority...I later from out from one of my rho chi's that the reason they don't have a house is because they had it taken away for doing bad stuff...oops!

#7 I wasn't sure what to expect from this house because someone had told me that the girls were stuck up, but I found it to be the exact opposite! The girls were extremely easy to talk to and very nice! Their skit was cute too and they all seemed really supportive of each other. I think this one might be my favorite of the night tied with #5.

We have a break tomorrow for Sept. 11 and then finally the last night of first rounds is Thursday and we fill out a preference sheet then. I'm really excited to find out which ones I'll keep visiting and which ones invite me back!!!

I'm so excited for you and that's odd bc. I'm not a big fan of Recruitment (I loved being a "Rho Chi" last year!), but since my chapter is preparing for recruitment right now and things are going great, it's nice to know that girls are having a good time at recruitment other places.

I've got to tell you though... I'm a little biased, just like everyone else in where it is you're gonna go... Add me on to the G Phi B list... And of course, I'll be watching this thread!
