Daughter going through Mizzou rush 2014

[NUalumMUmom]

Well, daughter has 6, including 2 she really likes, but cut from 3 she really liked, so a little bummed. Mostly she is worried about 6 socials in a row in the blazing heat and not being able to keep her energy up at all the houses, her favorites are in the middle. I stressed how competitive this is and that she is lucky to have six and that she should really look for people she likes in every house, because they obviously see something in her that they like. I just hope she isn't a puddle of sweat by the end of the day

That's wonderful!

Tell her to give the other 4 a second (or third) look. Sometimes first impressions change.

I hope it's going to cool off, but I doubt it. Weather channel says 98F today, 99F tomorrow and 98F on Sunday. At least everyone is in the same (sweaty) boat. It kind of sucks, because the rest of this summer has been so beautiful.

I just love your attitude, NUalumMUmom! It's so nice to see how encouraging and realistic you seem to be, instead of questioning the process or making assumptions. I wish your daughter the best of luck!
