Unsure about Rush

[socialite]

Well i'm no sorority member but I rushed my fraternity as a sophomore without being a legacy and I know it really wasn't that big a deal but I also know sorority dynamics are different BUT where they are different, a sophomore is probably not gonna be a big deal... I'll let the other sorors talk that one up but I can help with social affairs...

As for the social aspect of it all; Building relationships [whether friends or intimate], TAKES WORK. You might have to force yourself out of your room to get yourself out there but if you want to make friends you have to MAKE friends for yourself, their not gonna just poof into place. If everytime you get nervous or scared you run back into your hiding place you will get yourself nowhere... It not "How can i be rejected if i dont give myself the opportunity to be?" In the same way you may not fit in but HOW WILL YOU KNOW? And if you don't it will NOT be the end of the world and certainly not the end of your social life because there will be plenty of opportunitys to put yourself out there... As for making yourself look stupid at parties, just think about everything you say before you say it... Lastly, when you rush-- don't sit in a corner and mope, MAKE friends to go through rush with!

Hope I could help.
