Day Two:

We were allowed back to up to 6 houses today so I was SO excited to get the phone call this morning saying I had been invited back to 6!! My only disappointment was that I was dropped by Miss Me, which was sad because I knew that they were right up my alley, just got the short end of the stick when it came to recruitment. So I got dropped from Miss Me and Joe's which was to be expected because of their upperclassmen rules.

I was invited back to:
Sevens
Citizens
Habitual
True Religion
Rock n Republic
Paige


My thoughts on today (in no order):

Sevens: Got to talk to several girls that weren't people I had already met so that gave me a little more of a feel for the sorority. Their video/slideshow was SO CUTE, such a great theme and a cute idea. All of the girls have been incredibly easy to talk to. I have several concerns here though...one is that I feel like this sorority is full of women that are like me as I am NOW, not as the woman I want to become, which is a really important difference. As well, even though I believe things should be taken seriously, I feel like they are TOO serious about some stuff and it takes away some of the fun, which really concerns me.

Citizens: Once again, got paired with different girls besides ones I knew which was really nice to get a better feel of who all is in the sorority. This is a really big mix, lots of diversity, which is good. Their video was really boring though, even though it was philanthropy day, the video dragged on too long and became really monotone...their slide shows were poorly put together and kind of boring as well. The girls were really nice and I can see myself here in some ways, but once again I feel like it is more like who I am at the moment, like I would just slide in and not really challenge myself.

Habitual: Once again, painfully akward. Their crafts were lacking supplies and were totally pointless, the girls were akward and forced, they asked wierd questions and I just got a horrible vibe. I feel bad for them because no one really wants to be there, but it is not because we are mean girls, its that thier conversational skills are so so lacking. Definitely still my least favorite.

True Religion: Once again, LOVED this place. So cute, the sisters seem so close with each other which is a really big deal for me. They all seemed genuine, and even though a lot of them are from the same area, they were all so welcoming, a couple of the girls said hi that I had seen the day before which made me feel great. I really hope I get invited back here, as it was definitely one of my top choices. Really see myself here.

Rock n Republic: WOW! AGAIN! These girls just keep blowing me away. I had great convos all day, it was so easy going never a moments silence. I was so touched because a member of executive came up to me and mentioned a characteristic that we both shared that I couldn't believe she had noticed when I was at the house two days ago. I hadn't even spoken with her the first day, and she made the effort to come up and point out something we shared on her own. Made me feel so welcome. Their slideshow was incredible and the girls were tearing up, almost made me tear up I really loved this place. There are rumors they don't take upperclassmen, and I really hope that that isn't true!!!

Paige: Today went a little better but the girls were still kind of all over the place, I guess that was my biggest issue, was that by being a "non-sorority" sorority, they actually were kind of disorganized and I felt like they weren't very close with each other at all. Definitely didn't feel as at home as I did at others...

So after today I ranked:

Rock n Republic
True Religion
Citizens
Sevens
Paige
Habitual

Miss Me
Joe's
(We had to rank the other ones even though we had been dropped)

Iam so incredibly nervous about the phone call tomorrow morning, I don't know what I am going to do with myself all night!!! Please keep your fingers crossed!

Do not feel as though you need to answer this question, especially as you are being so careful [rightfully so!] to conceal your identity.
