I'm here in Oxford. My DD also thought she would be finished around 8:30ish. We were going to have a late dinner together because she said many friends were doing separate things rather than hang together. (I told her she could hang with her friends, I didn't need to see her tonight. But she indicated many are stressed and a little scared so they were not going to get together ...or at least that's what she said at 12:45 when she left.)
But after my DD left to go to pref parties, I got a text from her roommate's boyfriend saying that her last round ends at 9:40. That makes sense now based on what y'all are saying.
A few more tidbits from "the ground"
-it's raining...It's not a washout at the moment, but we just had a heavy shower move through. More to come....ugh.
-the rain is ushering in a cold front tomorrow. Should be heavy rain overnight and in morning and cloudy with potentially more rain in afternoon....:-( But temps will be dropping. It was HOT today...upper 80s. Tomorrow's high is 70!
-Until I got to campus I didn't understand what y'all meant by "tent talk"..... Ah! Now I get it. (There are tents in front of each house where girls wait ...Had no clue!)
-Overheard in the lobby of my daughter's dorm (NOTE: THIS WAS OVERHEARD AND NOT ACCURATE! The girl who worked the desk said it to another mom sitting in lobby. I didn't say a word, just smiled.....) : The cuts this year were brutal because of new sorority coming to campus. There were 5000 girls going through rush and they cut 1200 the first day. Second day they cut 800. (SERIOUSLY?? I knew from GC that the number of PNMs who registered was about 1300-1400.)
Oh well, I hope all goes well for all the girls....and I really hope the rain holds out until after 10 and is finished by 2:30 tomorrow afternoon!!
