New Brutally Honest Recruitment Thread!

[babydoll2012]

Orientation night. Oy vay. It was a lot of information at once. I got to meet my Pi Chi group. We’ll call the PX’s Annie and Mary. A couple of the girls in my group live on my floor, so at least I won’t be alone. They weren’t at this orientation though, and the other girls were mostly quiet and reserved (which I’m REALLY not. I felt weird being the only one who was talking. Was I being TOO outgoing? Recruitment hasn’t actually started, so I don’t know). We met all of the presidents, and were told what we should wear for recruitment (phew!). Then we went on a tour of each house with our groups. Once again, I did NOT want to leave Artemis. One of the girls I’d met through Meet the Greeks recognized me again and started chatting with me. I’m hoping this is a good sign? So basically, nothing has really changed. I also liked Demeter and think I have a better feel for them. This chapter is VERY new, but it has so much potential, and their house is BEAUTIFUL. In fact, a few of the girls in my Pi Chi group like them best. Personally, it’s getting harder and harder for me to choose with every event I go to. I feel like I’d be happy at almost any of the chapters. And the tent talk is certainly beginning. Every time I tell someone that I like Hera, they give me this disapproving look (and often remind me of their bad rep). Whatever, I’m trying my best not to listen. I just can’t wait for the parties to start! The past few days have dragged along. The more excited I get for recruitment, the slower time seems to be moving. Also, Jessica went to orientation with me, and decided that she’s definitely going through recruitment this semester! Let the anticipation build!!!

I'm glad you're not listening to "tent talk" b/c girls often don't realize that one chapter may not be for them but it certainly is a good fit for someone else. Keep updating. I like your story.

Hijack, sorry, my best friend's name is Mary and her sister's name is Annie.

This also reminds me of something funny that happened when I went through recruitment. At one of the chapters, the president and another girl (don't remember her position) came out to welcome us to the house. They introduced themselves as Mallory and Courtney, which really weirded me out because I knew a set of twins named Mallory and Courtney who joined the same sorority at another school!

That's all !

And I can't wait for more!!!

This is actually a pretty refreshing thread to read. It's not often that a PNM attends a pre-recruitment event and has a good conversation at EVERY chapter she meets.

You must be one of those really outgoing people who can find something in common with anyone.
