I changed some colors around for everyone so here they are finally:
SO....Day 1 was philanthropy day and it started with a twist. I got my list of parties to attend, and Stephanie Pratt's Hamster wasn't on it!!! I looked around and noticed other people were confused as well. Our rho gamma explained that this sorority was having some problems and wasn't supposed to be doing recruitment in the first place. I don't really understand what happened with them still....
Also, before we went anywhere, the rho gamma sat us down and said, "There have been a lot of rumors flying about Lo. Lo is NOT on probation, and never has been. They are an upstanding group of girls, so don't let that enter your thoughts when you meet them!" I was glad to hear that, because I loved Lo. Soooo...I went to my first party.
Lauren Conrad was up first. I was really intimidated when I walked in, because they were chanting before we got there, and it kind of sounded like a scary chant. Once I got in though, I was excited. I noticed that there weren't many girls though. Their decorations were really cute, and their theme was adorable. Every girl I talked to had 2 pnms, ad the other pnm with me was kind of strange. I felt bad, because she didnt talk much and I didn't want to monopolize the conversation. Some of the girls at Lauren seemed really snotty too, but some were really nice. It was hard to know what to think.
Audrina was next. I was so excited to go to Audrina because they had been my favorite after round table. The girls screamed excitedly as we walked in, and they were MUCH bigger than LC. Again, each girl had two PNMS, but this time we got out of order accidently so I had a new PNM with me who I loved. The first girl I talked to was really nice, but I kept trying to ask questions about their philanthropy and she kept talking about this dinner cruise that their sorority sponsors and how its such a cool event. She also told me that if I liked to have fun, I should definitely consider Audrina because they didn't have as strict of rules and partied a lot and my mom would definitely give me a fake ID!!! She also said that the girls at Lo had advisors around all the time and couldn't party much! I like to go to parties as much as anyone, but I thought it was a little trashy to talk about that right away! Especially about another sorority. But I guess the rumors about Lo and Audrinas rivalry were true? The next girl I talked to was very sweet though, told me all about their philanthropy, and what a great sisterhood Audrina had. The next couple girls were very nice as well, but I didn't really bond with anyone.
Next was Lo. I was worried because I'd loved Audrina so much before, and I'd gotten such an awkward response from them. I was so wrong to be worried though! Lo was by far the spunkiest when we entered, jumping up and down and singing a really cute song!! I had it stuck in my head for days! They had a cute golf theme, and the girls had adorable shirts on that said something like "Los always get a hole in one" or something. I t was cuter than that but I don't remember. The girl I talked to was really nice, and she was making an effort to not ask boring questions, which I loved. I'm was undecided, leaning toward one major so she was telling me about all these different clubs and resources, which I loved. She was a senior, and kept talking about how sad she was that it was her last recruitment. By the end of our conversation I wanted to steal her shirt and wear it because I KNEW I was a Lo. The next couple girls were just as amazing as the first, and by the time I left, I was in a state of Lo Euphoria. I was in love.
Whitney was a huge surprise when I walked in. THey were small, but they were loud! I hadn't loved Whitney the day before, but my mind was definitely changed after today. The girls at Whitney were so closely bonded it was obvious. Even though it was the end of the day, they had a lot of energy, and we're very engaging. I asked about the selection process (oops!) because I was really confused at what to do after the events were over. She explained it to me really well, without giving anything away. I thought Whitney was very poised!
At the end of the day, I knew how to rank pretty easily.
Lo
Whitney
Audrina
and
1. LC
I know I had a strange time at Audrina, but I wanted to give them another chance because some of the girls really did seem genuine, and maybe I just got a weirdo on the first day. The next morning I woke up, put on my business casual outfit and headed over to meet my rho gamma....
