Okay, update time!

You GC-ers are going to smack me for this... but I only went to one of the five invitational parties today. I know, I know, I should have given the other four chapters a chance, but here's the lowdown.

I had a meeting for a club I'm in, and I couldn't get out of it. Saturn's party was during the meeting, so I decided that I wouldn't go to that one.

I left a few minutes early from the meeting and rushed over to the party for Mars, one of my favorite houses from last night. I had a BLAST! I got to meet a bunch of the girls, and both of the girls I talked to yesterday remembered me and said that they were glad to have me back. It was amazing how natural I felt around these girls--and when they played their slideshow for us, I fell in love with them even more! The party lasted 50 minutes, and it went by so quickly. On the way out I ran into a friend of mine who I didn't even know was rushing, but she was considering Mars as well, so we had a good chat about that.

Well, after that, I was done. I probably made too rash of a decision, but my gut feeling has never really failed me. I knew it was Mars or nothing. So, I went home, half being glad to be home early and half wondering if I had made the right choice--I mean, what if Mars didn't invite me back for tomorrow?

But it all ended well! I just received a call from Mars a few minutes ago, and I am ecstatic! Tomorrow will be my last chapter event, and then we'll see if I get a bid on Thursday.

I am way beyond excited... I wasn't even sure if I wanted to join a sorority before rush started, and here I am, in love with a house! I hope tomorrow goes well!

TO MARS OR BUST!

So it doesn't sound like she really snubbed them. Maybe it wasn't an excused absence in the eyes of the chapters, but she didn't just sit around and be like "F Saturn I am too good for them".

If this is a formal rush, I would call your recruitment counselor immediately and make sure that your skipping the parties will not affect your eligibility to receive a bid.

Why are the sororities calling you to invite you to parties? Is this informal/COB?

That's what I was thinking. It doesn't sound like any formal process I've heard of.
