Round 1

So happy I can finally share this with you guys! So, here it goes.

When round one finally came around I could barely contain my excitement. I got ready an hour before I actually needed to and then sat around for what felt like forever. When I finally showed up to the student center I got my first days schedule. (Round 1 is broken up into two days, you see three one day and three the next) On day one I was headed to Eric, Shawn and Minkus. My group also had a break first round so we had to sit around for an extra hour, which was excruciating.

First up was Eric. They funny thing about this chapter is that I had found out I was a legacy about two weeks before recruitment. I had no idea up until that point. When I went in I was so overwhelmed because it was my first sorority in my first round. The first girl I talked to was so sweet and so nice we laughed the whole time and talked about our roots. The next girl was the same way but the conversation was pretty generic. The last girl I talked to was the one I liked the most she and I really clicked. The presentation on their philanthropy was really cute but a girl fainted halfway through so we had to move out into the hallway and finish up conversations there.

Next was Shawn- I was most excited to go here. Their philanthropy was the closest to my heart. I talked to about 8 girls and had the best time of my life. Everyone was so down to Earth and a little bit goofy like me. I felt more comfortable here than I did at the previous one. I even got a little teary eyed during their presentation. I was definitely sad to hear that time was up.

The last one of this exhausting first day was Minkus. I was double rushed here. The girl we talked to was not as good at making conversation but she made an effort. At this party other girls would walk up and join the conversation but we always stayed with the main girl. All the girls who came up to talk were great I just didn't make a connection with our main girl.

----Day Two Round One-------

I was way less nervous today because I had such a blast they day before. I could not wait to start going to meet all of the other sororities. First up was

Feeny- The girl I talked to actually happened to be in one of my classes. She was really nice. I loved talking to her. The girl that joined our conversation was sweet to. I had fun here but it wasn't "that feeling"

Cory was the other party I was really looking forward to attending. I was not disappointed. I had a few friends in here and a couple of them even ended up being the ones to rush me. I talked to probably 6 girls. I fell in love with all of them. I was laughing so hard I was crying.

Finally this exhausting first round was almost over. All that was left was Topanga. I went in hoping that they would have stepped it up since info nights. I was double rushed here also. I did not feel a connection with any of the girls I talked to. I felt so bad. I wish that there was someone who I had a decent conversation with, but it just wasn't for me.

This was the only round where my rankings were easy

1. Sean
2.Cory
3.Eric
4.Feeny
5.Minkus
6.Topanga

I literally could not sleep that night and I was a nervous wreck walking to the student center to get my schedule for house tours...
