2) Parental Control - The girl I talked to was very nice and laid-back. She described her sorority as the kind of girls I would love to hang out with. However, she seemed very nervous and we didn't click that well. Whenever the conversation would move away from her sorority, she would steer it back, so that's probably why I didn't feel like I related.
3) MADE - The girls were so sweet and friendly. The first girl and I joked about how blind we are without our glasses on, and we ended up just talking a lot. The second girl and I were basically the same person. So far, it’s my favorite house and the most relatable.
4) Teen Mom - This is the house that my roommate/best friend and other best friend that I met last year are in. These girls were very fun and easy to talk to, but that might be because I know a ton of them. I like the girls a lot, but I'm also trying to keep an open mind.
5) Jersey Shore - They were my favorite house last year, and they did not disappoint. These girls were a lot like me and I felt like I knew them forever. They were very nice and I felt comfortable talking to them. Definitely my second choice.
6) Cribs - The conversation was forced and did not flow. She was very nice, but it was hard to talk to her.
7) The Hills - We shared a conversation with another girl and PNM. It felt like a competition to get more attention. Surprisingly, the four of us all came from the same town so we talked a lot about that. This is considered one of our "top" sororities, however, I couldn't see myself being in this sorority.
8) Real World - The girl was really nice. There wasn't anything really special, just average talk.
9) Disaster Date - The girls were very sweet to me and we were talking a good minute after the lights went out (signaling it was time to leave).
10) Fantasy Factory - It was ok. I don't feel connected but I feel like after a couple of days I could get a better feel of the house.
11) The City - She was nice but I didn't feel like we clicked at all. Conversation was pretty dull.
12) Sweet 16 - By this point, I was exhausted, but the girl I was talking to was so nice.
13) World of Jenks - The conversation was fine, until another girl brought her PNM over to share the conversation. It ended up being the two sisters (they were a Big Sis and Little Sis) talking to each other while the PNM and I stood there smiling uncomfortably.


So far my top 3:
- MADE
- Jersey Shore
- Teen Mom

Bottom 4 (ranked, favorite to least):
- The Hills
- The City
- Real World
- Cribs

Teen Mom – My roommate and my other best friend are both in this house. We kept giggling whenever we saw each other. I ended up liking these girls a lot, but I’m nervous as to whether I like them because I personally liked them, or if it’s because I’m acquainted with them and if they like me because I’m a Teen Mom’s roommate.

MADE – Their house is so gorgeous. I was so excited to go back to them because they were my favorite house from Spirit Day. However, although the conversation went well, it didn’t flow as well as the other ones did. There were 3 girls today, but there wasn’t a deep connection with 2 of them, and I’m bummed about it.

The Hills – This was actually one of the houses on my bottom 4, and a “top house”. I’m so glad that I got called back to them. I felt really comfortable here and the girls and I could not stop talking. We actually had a conversation about how we talk too much. These girls were great and made me feel at home.

World of Jenks – They were so sweet! We all had so much in common. We were literally cutting each other off because we had so much to say. I had a lot in common with the first girl I talked to, who was a pre-med major like me. One of the girls rushing me told me she loved my personality, and my optimism is what the girls in her house were looking for.

---- (Day 2) ----
Parental Control – They were still really laid-back. There were normal conversations but nothing too special. However, when she started talking about living in the house, I could definitely see myself there, studying or just hanging out with the girls.

True Life – I didn’t seem to have anything in common with these girls. I was actually thinking about the time the whole time and wondering when the conversation would be over – it was that awkward. A couple of the girls didn’t seem to care to talk to me, either.

Fantasy Factory– Their house is so gorgeous…probably my favorite out of all the houses. That being said, the girls in it were again, not connecting with me. By now I was wondering why my conversations weren’t going as well as the previous days. Maybe I was just drained.

Jersey Shore – This was my favorite house last year, and it did not disappoint. Still one of my top favorites. The girls and I had a lot in common and joked around about a lot of things. One of the girls in it particularly stood out to me. She made our conversations feel so personal. She kept calling me by name, and we ended up talking about off the wall things. I felt like we clicked so much.

Cribs – The girl was great. We talked for so long and didn’t run out of things to say. Unfortunately, I could not see myself being in this house. It really bummed me out because this one particular girl was so much like me and I could really see myself being her “sister”
