LOL. When I read the thread title, it makes me think she is carrying the computer with her to all the parties giving us minute by minute info.

I found that it was kind of like Christmas or the first day of school, I woke up early without really feeling tired because I was so excited. Good luck tomorrow!

BREAK after 3 houses

Tara Reid-LOVED IT! The conversation flowed just fine and all three girls I talked to were amazing, plus they seemed like they actually cared about what I was saying. Being the first house I went to, I was super nervous but that quickly faded!

Lindsay Lohan- The first girl I talked to was really nice and it was great to meet her, but I can tell from some of the things she said that she isn't the type of person I would usually hang around with. The next two were just really awkward, and sounded as thought they were just reading questions off of a script. Not to mention that I found out that living in the house is optional and most choose not to-seems off to me.

Tom Cruise-Adored this house, the two girls I knew came over and said hi and all of the other girls I talked to just seemed very genuine. I actually had a good time talking to them and laughed a lot. This one definately moves up the list for me.

I know a lot of people will tell you to use ask the question, "what sets your chapter apart from the others?". I personally hate this one for the reason you stated above. The answer always is scripted.

Surely several of us could chip in and get her a Blackberry so she could actually update us while at the parties!

LilCareBear -- you have fun.

I was wondering how long before someone suggested this.

I can imagine.

Sister: We're all indivudual at this chapter.
PNM: Really. [Looks down at BB]
Sister: Yes, we have people from all...
PNM[interrupting]: Hold on, I'm only on "at".
Sister: What?
PNM: These obsessive chicks on this website told me that if I kept them up to the second, they'd make sure I get into a Top Tier Chapter. I have to type everything you say.

Lololol! Actually, it wasn't so much laugh out loud; more like guffaw out loud, but gol just doesn't flow.

Paris Hilton-I just didn't feel that comfortable at this house. The girl I was with wasn't awkward or anything but it just didn't feel right for me, and I can't really pinpoint the reason why. This surprised me because I really liked it at the open house. I know a ton of girls who said that this house was their favorite, so maybe it was just the girl I talked to that I didn't click with and not the whole sorority, we shall see.

K-Fed-I got paired with a girl I knew from class, so that was fine because there wasn't any awkward ice to break, but she did violate the no talking about boys rule. It was nice that she was completely herself because I would have known right off the bat that she was putting on a front. The next girl was nice but nothing really stuck out to me. I'm not feeling the love at all in this house, and the first girl I talked to told me that she didn't know many people in her sorority because most girls keep to themselves and keep their doors shut.

Michael Jackson- I really liked this house, I had a lot in common with the girl I was paired with and we played a little getting to know you game in little groups which was fun. This house was much more informal than the other houses and everyone just seemed really laid-back and low stress, which is good.

Britney Spears-By the time I got to this house all of my nerves were gone and I was just really cold and tired, so I was just totally relaxed which was good because the seat I was in was really comfortable and I was just completely me with no fake smiling or anything. I really liked everyone I met and I just really liked being here.

Tomorrow we can go back to a maximum of 6 houses and we won't find out which ones until tomorrow morning. We only rank one house as number 2 and the rest as 1. I was having a hard time deciding on ranking either K-Fed or Lindsay Lohan number 2, and finally went with K-Fed.
