reply to 33girl and a rookie's perspective

I know it's off the subject...sorry. But I was surprised by that bit of info about taking only 21 and over's for the vegas show. I made it to the third round of casting for the vegas season. Honestly I didn't expect to make it into the penthouse, but I feel better knowing that my age was a factor in thier decision. (I was 19/20 during casting)

Back to topic.
As someone who hasn't been through rush yet, the show was a little informative. First, I never considered the flip side of the beauty standard. Most girls worry that they aren't pretty enough, not that they may be too pretty. No offense but it actually made me feel better that thay were looking for more down-to-earth girls as opposed to the ones who try to look cutest in baby doll tees. It always seemed to me that the prettiest woman weren't the one's that "gussied" themsleves up when it wasn't neccessary. I think it was a wise decision to extend a bid to all the girls and let the pledge period weed them out. Eventually the glamour of the cameras will wear away and the actual commitment of sisterhood will sink in.

Although Pauli was judging the books by thier cover, she does have a point in asking "are they here for sigma, or for the cameras?". So the rules are strict for a reason, they need to see who really wants to be a sister and who really wants to be a suedo-celeb.

If any of my rookie observations are wrong, feel free to set me straight
