2nd time around

[tinkgirl]

So its now 11:23pm and I am exhausted. So heres the recap, oh and by the way who ever that matchers this year are, are amazing.

There are nine house lets call them
red
orange
yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet
Gold and
Silver
(none of these correlate to house colors they're just in the order of the houses i visited.)

Ok so starting off red. . .I was kidnapped by a girl who knew me previously, and thus was not able to talk to any other girls. Which was both good and bad, I really have no interest in that house, and don't want this one girl taking our "catching up" conversation to move me forward. At the same time, because i didnt talk to anyone else I may not get asked back.

Orange: The room was great! Alot different than last year ( I remember because it was dark and stiffling last year). Had great conversations with the girls, just casual conversation like old friends would have. Great Fun.

Yellow: Horrible. Which is weird, because last year I had great conversations with them, and this year it was horrible. I was double rushed, and the second girl to talk to us, basically talked about a common friend between her and the other girl. When 10 minutes was spent where I couldnt even try to park take, in a 30 minute party, it makes things a little rough.

Green: Loved them loved them loved them. The room was adorable, the girls were fantastic, I honestly felt the most comfortable in this room, and I dont even have friends in that house. I had terrific conversations AND my rho chi from last year is actually the president and shes an absolute doll!!

Blue: This was totally fun, I bonded with a girl over our theatre interests( shes a major Im a minor) and really had just a fun comfortable converastions. One girl was so comfortable she took her shoes off. Great but not amazing.

Indigo: I was picked up by the ONLY girl I knew in the hosue. We happen to be pretty close so we just sat there an gossiped about things going on lately. It was great to see her again, however she passed me off to a girl I didn't click with at all, which was kind of uncomfortable ( I hate awkward pauses)

Violet: This house has a reputation and I think I met the girls that just dont fit it. Although I felt that they really didnt care about me. THey were talking to me to talk to me, and that was that. They were kind of hollow and thats just sad.

Gold: This house made me really sad. Because I know that they wanted my to pref them last year, and they put on a terrific rush, and the girls are terrific, but I just cannot see myself being happy in that house. I like the girls, but I feel the overall vibe of the house just isnt what Im looking for, or anything that really defines me.

Silver: The sins of rush. The room was so hot and sweltering it was almost impossible to breath. I could tell the girl that picked me up was tired of all this. There were big gaps in the conversation, and I was trying to be excited but her lack of energy just made it alot harder. I was passed on to girls who little to nothing in common with me and had a hard time coming up with things to talk about continusly.

So at the end of the night we rank the house, plug em in and go about our marry way. Heres my ranking
1. Green
2. Orange
3. Indigo
4. Blue
5. Silver
6. Violet
7. Yellow
8. Gold
9. Red

I may have mixed up my 7 and 8 because my mind is so tired I cannot remember which one I put where. But on the matcher comment, I had alot of girls rush me who were also re-rushees. It not uncommon to re-rush at my school, and if everyone is happy in the end then its great.

Another note, we dont have houses, so we have to rush around in a random fashion to a bunch of different conference rooms the houses decorate each day, tear down each night, then move to a different room for the next day. Its intense for those girls, eesh. Any how Im nervous for tomorrow, since I have no idea how many houses I'll be asked back too.

Thanks for all your love and support!!
