A well traveled "live" recruitment

[buddingflower]

I just finished 1st round!!!! I am EXHAUSTED, but had so much fun

Here is what I thought about each chapter:

Paris: I LOVED this sorority! They were so energetic and lively when we walked through the door. I loved how they were all wearing matching outfits instead of just the plain recruitment t and whatever pants. The girls I talked to were so easy to talk to and it seemed like 15 minutes was 15 seconds. I did not want to leave and kept thinking about what it would be like as a member of Paris!

London: I had great conversations with the girls I talked to and got a better feeling about their sisterhood. The conversation was very natural and there weren't any awkward pauses. Again, the 15 minutes went by soooo quickly!

Rome: Both girls I talked to were very nice. At times, I felt like the conversation was a little thin and I would end up asking questions. Overall, I liked the sorority and picked up on their very close relationships.

Barcelona: Another sorority I absolutely LOVED. I talked to several girls, including one who met me at the open house and remembered my major and everything! All the conversations flowed very smoothly and before I knew it, I had to leave! I could picture myself being with these girls as sisters!

Berlin: I talked to several girls in the span of 15 minutes. I had a great conversation with the first girl I talked to, but after that, they went downhill with many awkward pauses.

Dublin: VEEEERRRRRYYYYY AWKWARD! The two girls I talked to barely looked at me and the conversations got nowhere. I wrote them off the second I left.

Vienna: Although I liked them in the open house, I realized quickly that I did not fit in. I didn't get a good feeling about any of the girls I talked to and felt like the girls they sent to the open house did not really represent their sorority.

Copenhagen: I only talked to one girl the whole 15 minutes. I was asked several times to tell her about myself instead of asking specifics. At times, the conversation was very awkward. I know I can't base the whole sorority off of one member though.

We were asked to give our top six and rank our bottom two. I put:

1. Paris
1. Barcelona
1. London
1. Berlin
1. Copenhagen
1. Rome

2. Vienna
3. Dublin

I wouldn't put it that way...naturally a group is going to send its most outgoing girls and best rushers to an event where they can have limited members, the same as it would have its best athletes doing intramurals. It's not as though those girls aren't still members of the chapter. If you liked the women at the open house, I wouldn't discount them totally.

Also remember you said:
