suzieQ's Fall 2006 Rush @ UW!

[mythreedd]

SuzieQ .. my daughter is rushing too at UW. I just got off the phone with her. She knew nothing about the houses ahead of time, but had an absolute blast today. She is so hoarse...from talking so much...8 houses in 8 hours is a lot. She only had positive things to say about all of them. She also said the houses were very beautiful. She finished the conversation by saying ,"I'm so tired, and so happy I'm doing this." What a compliment to the UDub Greek system.

Good luck with your rush...I mean recruitment! Have a wonderful time and I hope you find your home.

It was a beautiful day today in Seattle - I can imagine that you had so much fun walking between all of those gorgeous houses! I'm delighted to FINALLY see stories close to home - good luck to you and have fun visiting all of the amazing chapters at UDub! Can't wait to hear more!

Yay! Another rush thread. Good luck and have fun.

Can I beg and ask a huge favor please?

I know discretion is important, you don't want to be unpanhellenic, etc but could you PLEASE with a cherry on top after you get a bid, and tell us how great greek life is with your new sisters, can you PLEASE go back and tell us what houses are what?

I LOVE going back and reading what houses were what.

Thanks a lot!

POssibly not the smartest. THere are a lot of people with UW connections here and I don't know that naming names will be the best idea as people will be able to find out who she is pretty easy. I don't care if she gets into her 1st choice, people still may be offended that she didn't like their home.

Hello! I'm on my dinner break. They give us over an hour, which is nice because I can go home to my dorm and have a few minutes of down time. I'm having a lot of fun but I'm sooo tired. I was falling asleep in my class today. I'll be back later to tell everyone about the other eight houses.

aabby757: Don't worry, after it's all over I'll say who is who. I think it will be okay because there honestly aren't any houses that I dislike... (well at least not in the first 14, I still have two after dinner!).

I'm worried about the ranking tonight. I think I can think of about five that I really want to see again and then the rest I want to see again but not any more than the other ones. So I guess I'm just hoping for the max of 10 invites so I can get to know as many houses as I can. I think the average people get is 8 and I know that it isn't uncommon to get 4 or 6. That makes me nervous. I know that the sorority women know better about who fits in, but it will still be sad to see my invites tomorrow if I'm cut severely or from favorites.

I was worried that rush would be harder this year since there are sooo many girls rushing, but I am told that the pledge classes will just be bigger.

Oohh and the weather is nice today but I think today is supposed to be the last day in the 70s. :'( And Thursday-Sunday it's supposed to rain!!!!
