Round 1. Oh lord. I don’t even know what to say. I absolutely LOVED every single chapter. Cutting was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. I wish there were more time to talk to people so I had a better idea of who I liked and who I didn’t because right now I like all of them. Okay, here’s the breakdown:

First up was Demeter. I was really nervous, and I think it showed. We talked mostly about family, but I felt like I was rambling. I liked them a lot, but I didn’t think I’d get an invite back.

Next was Pandora. Luckily, the girl who was paired with me was someone I was already friends with, so she introduced me to a lot of people. I felt way more relaxed, and felt good being there. Some of the girls I talked to weren’t my style, but I still felt pretty good.

Then came Artemis. Once again, lots of love. I liked the girls I talked to a lot. The same girl I talked to at Meet the Greeks and the house tours was there, and we talked for most of the time. I felt like this party did NOT last long enough. So fun, again, still pretty high up on the list.

Athena was next. Eh. They were cute and very sweet, but the conversation was generic and none of the sisters were very memorable. Although, whoever said they were the “fat” chapter was lying. Didn’t see a single overweight girl. Stupid stereotypes.

Off to Aphrodite. WOW did these girls surprise me. I went in without the best impression of them, but the girl who picked me up was AWESOME. I only really talked to 2 girls the whole time, but they were both so much fun. I was just so shocked.

Then down to Hera. Once again, I loved them. I was getting really tired by this time, but I tried to keep a smile on. The girl who I was matched with first was one I’d met at Meet the Greeks, and she said she was really happy to see me again. That made me feel good. I had great conversations with most of the girls I talked to. No disappointments.

Finally, we went to Hestia. I was EXHAUSTED by now, but I tried not to let it show. Emily, who has apparently been talking me up to the rest of the girls, was right next to me. We of course ended up talking most of the time, but the other two girls I talked to were really cool too. I feel like I would fit in.

Ranking was TOUGH. I really did like every single chapter. My group was rushed off to rank right after the last party, so I didn’t even have a chance to mull it over or talk to my Pi Chi’s. We could pick 5 to keep (shown in alphabetical order because they weren’t officially ranked) and had to “cut” the bottom two, so my rankings looked something like this:

1. Aphrodite
1. Artemis
1. Hera
1. Hestia
1. Pandora

2. Demeter
3. Athena

I was so sad that I had to cut. I didn’t want to at all. Oh well, round two = skit night!

I remember liking most houses when I went through rush too. We had to cut one after our first day and there was really only one that definitely came to mind. After philanthropy day we could only go back to 4 houses (out of 7 remaining) and that was a tough decision.

Updates please!!!
