Paper Moon
Close Encounters
Jaws/Rocky
Grease

I'm probably being way annoying with these posts today but I have to figure out a way to occupy my time on my phone =P

Kristen, it has been said here before,and important to remember, look at each of these houses with " fresh new glasses" . Think of today as the first day of recruitment with these four houses.... be interested, be yourself, and know this can be your absolute BEST day of recruitment!
Smiles!

Kristen you have the right idea! Keep positive and as other posters said take this as your first day in rush. Give all these houses a fresh look today. Good luck and keep the faith!

Oh, the other one was just where you thought you would be invited back to. I understand.

Get out your fishnets, Pink Lady jacket and hot pants/floppy hat and you're set for this round!

Good luck!

After reading through the thread I was cheering for Jaws

Oh, well. Good luck - I'm excited to hear how it turns out, especially since I'm in the area!

Thanks so much for helping me through the morning. I am so glad that I didn't have to pick one to drop today, I ended up loving all of them so much and can't imagine not going back to any of them tomorrow. So here goes Philanthropy Day!!

Rocky Horror was the first house I went back to this afternoon. I was really relaxed and my first rusher and I had a lot in common. Our conversation was really easy and I had lots of fun doing the craft with her. The second girl who rushed me was kinda awkward, but we were sitting at tables and one of my rushers from the day before was there so we talked a lot as a group.

Grease was where I went next, and I'm so happy that I got to go back. Everything that I had thought badly about them yesterday was totally wrong. I've gotten along really well with all the ladies from here. After today I can totally see myself in this house, something that was totally unfathomable yesterday.

Finally...

Taxi Driver was amazing. Their philanthropy is great--something I really feel strongly about-- so I was able to really connect with the sisters when we were talking about that. Everyone I have met in Taxi Driver has been really nice to me and very genuine. As of right now, I'm hoping I run home to Taxi Driver Saturday, but I know now that nothing is set in stone at all.

I was so frazzled thinking I only had been matched with four other sororities that when I found out I really only had matched three I was really sad. I talked to my Rho Gamma when I got there today and she helped me out a lot. She said the same things y'all did, but looking at it on the screen and hearing it out loud while watching the person tell you their story about how they were cut from their favorites is totally different. I 100% love my Rho and I feel like I was destined to be in her group, as cheesy as that sounds. I was really glad I didn't have to drop any today because I love them all so much now. I (obviously) have a favorite, but I can see myself being happy at any of the houses I have left. I'm glad I don't have to be the one to choose =P

GOOD LUCK with Grease!! You'll do great, stay positive!

I don't understand why Grease was one of the bottom 2 when you had such a great time with them. Good luck tomorrow!!

Looking forward to it! Try to get some sleep, if that's even possible. If not, ya might want to watch a movie from your list to keep your mind occupied
