Interesting topic for a few minutes, but literally, that's all she would talk about. I tried to steer it away from guide monkeys but she WOULD NOT relent. I thought their craft was kind of silly, and I left this house not sure if I wanted to return.
"A Monkey Named Hellion!!!!!!"

We watched this old 1970s video every year in the psych class I TA'ed for. Google it. It's actually pretty cool. I am SO rooting for Plum now!

I'm feeling the love for watermelon. Even though she feels a connection with several houses, she noted that watermelon seemed the most natural and open, like she was seeing past their recruitment manners and into the real heart of the house.

Sorry to keep you all on edge!

Skit Day

I was SO excited for Skit Day! I had heard this was the most fun of all the days. Today was supposed to be chilly, so I wore a pair of black leggings, a royal blue loosely crocheted sweater dress with a black tank under it, and a pair of mid-calf yellow Frye boots.



I know these seem SO weird, but they were totally cute with the dress, and I swear I did not look like a cow girl. Lol.

Anyway, Jena (who also looked super cute in skinny jeand and ankle boots) and I went together to meet our Rho Chi to get our lists. I had told her the day before about my Rachel run-in, and she was definitely not a fan of either one of them. She told me that she doubted that either one would get a bid from Starfruit, the house they were both obsessed with. I secretly agreed with Jena, but I didn't want to voice my opinion incase one of them overheard me and then verbally attacked me even more.


Speaking of Rachel and Marie, I'm definitely not a skank....I forgot to say that in my last post.

Anyway, my Rho Chi gave me my schedule back and here's what is said:
Watermelon
Cantaloupe
Cherry
Pineapple

wait...WHAT?!?! How in the hell did Pineapple get back on my schedule?! I had no idea how this could have happened, and I tried to ask my Rho Chi, but she was swarmed with tons of upset girls. I vowed to figure it out later, but anyway
Strawberry
Starfruit
Mango
Peach

I was really excited for this day and couldn't wait to get started!

Will post more later!

xo.

I'm intrigued by this. Apparently, most (all?) of the top tier houses invited her back, but at least one of the bottom tier houses (Grape, which was described as the "reject" house) cut her. Is this common practice for houses that are in a "rebuilding" cycle to focus their energy on girls that are less likely to go to a top tier house?

I will say that alot of times, a chapter will cut a girl if they get the feeling that they are more interested in other chapters.

And they even get to bring their purses into the houses. How cool is that?
