Okay today was my first day of rush here it goes:
1. First house was ------------. These girls were really sweet and I love how friendly they were. I almost felt pressured by a few because the rush chair and girls that I met the day before at the first reception. I liked them but I don’t know if I would want to be a part of their house.
2. We then went to -------- and I had so much fun there. The girls were really nice and I was able to talk to some about cooking and traveling and so forth. Overall I like these girls and want to check them out again to see their sisterhood better.
3. After that we went to --------- and I liked them though it seemed as if every girl was really trying to be an individual. And I don’t know if I really want to be in a sorority that champions itself in being different because I am looking for a traditional place. I am a traditional girl.
4. Then we went to ------- and I don’t like this house. While the girls I talked to seemed fun, something that caught my eye really made me not like them. They had shot glasses on a table next to the entrance to their party room with their GLO’s name on them surrounded by glitter and confetti on the table. I really thought that was a little distasteful from a PNM’s point of view to have shot glasses and other drinking paraphernalia there for show.
5. After that was ---------- and I loved it. I met so many beautiful girls and all of them were really diverse. I loved some because they traveled a ton and that was so neat. They were all really genuine.
6. Granted the first girl I talked to wasn’t very personable, I loved this house. All the other girls were great and I felt at ease with them. They were all from good families and well traveled but I really felt that they truly stand out.
7. Next this house was so great! I felt comfortable there and I didn’t feel like I was trying at all. These girls were great and I really feel like I should get to know them better to get a better feel for their house.
8. This house I didn’t know what to expect because their reputation varies from campus to campus but the girls I met were so fun. One was an Assisteens chairman like me and that was sooooo great because I really was explaining it to a lot of girls but not here. They seemed confident. I don’t know if this house is for me so I need to get a better feel for them.
9. I didn’t like this house. I didn’t feel comfortable and they seemed a little too relaxed. Even though they are supposedly big on campus they really weren’t for me. One girl didn’t talk much because we were two PNM’s with one active and I didn’t like that since all of the other houses were one on one.
10. These girls were very nice and incredibly athletic. I liked them and want to get to know them a little bit more. They seemed really real and I also liked how they had engineering majors at their house. Smart girls.
11. These girls had a lot of perk. At the BBQ the day before I was allowed to meet the rush chair and she was the nicest person ever. The girl I talked to though was very quirky and nice. We had a common friend and a common love for Florence. This girl knew my sister’s close friend really well so that was fun to talk about. They showed a slide show but they yelled and clapped in a small room and danced…it all would have been totally cute if they did it a little softer. It was a little bit too loud.
I dropped number’s 4, 9, and 11. I put 11 as my 9th choice but I just didn’t know if the girls were really for me. Like I said I am a traditional girl. Hopefully tomorrow I will get asked back to the ones that I like. I really hope that they liked me!
