I was surprised by just how much goes on behind the scenes. I kind of figured the sorority members weren't just sitting around with their feet up when there wasn't a party going on, but I didn't quite realize that my sisters and I would be running around like chickens without heads, changing out decorations, making sure snacks and drinks were set, doing membership selection, etc.
I didn't realize how SICK AND TIRED I would be of certain songs by the end of rush!! The songs stuck in the PNMs' heads, which was a good thing, but I did NOT need "Hey Look Us Over" running through my head while desperately trying to get some sleep in the 4 or 5 hours I had.
I surprised myself with my conversation skills. I've always been an introvert, and I had to overcome that during rush and carry on convos with all kinds of different PNMs (including a straight-up psycho) - and I did it! This experience really helped me outside the rush room too.
