Less than a week left! It's so soon! I'm really worried about recs. My friends have offered to write me recs if they have time. I definitely should have been better prepared with the recommendations D= I know it will all work out in the end, but I'm really stressed right now.

I am proud of myself right now though for not spending any money on my recruitment outfits! =] Haha. I've got it all planned out and I'm gonna be lookin' real cute! =P

I am more excited to see where you end up! I have a friend that is greek at UCF and the last 2 recruitment stories I read about UCF, the PNMs both ended up pledging the same sorority where my friend is a member! Don't stress too much about the recs! Get ready for recruitment next week!

good for you. no one is going to know if you have on brand news clothes or things you have had in your wardrobe for a while-they are meeting you for the first time, after all. the key is to look good in what you wear and it sounds like you have that covered. good luck!

So I went shopping with my mom today at Salvation Army and bought the cutest Lilly Pulitzer dress for 3 dollars!!! I still haven't decided if I'm wearing it next week, it needs to get taken in a little, but I'm so excited with my purchase that I wanted to share it in here anyway haha! It doesn't take much money to have great outfits for recruitment!!

Also, while I was with my mom today we talked to her good friend who is a DG and has a daughter at Florida in their Rocky chapter. She reminded me that I will end up right where I belong, recs or no recs. It was really great talking to her-- she definitely calmed my fears quite a bit.

i have 2 friends who can shop at tj maxx, marshalls, etc. and look like they bought their outfit at saks, so as you say, it doesn't take a lot of money!

So some exciting news (at least for me). Both of my roommates from last year are participating in recruitment! One of them is in Taxi Driver & she is going to be rushing people, and the other is going through recruitment with me! It will be nice to have someone I know there with me, even though we are very different =P

Not much left to say... getting my hair done today & then I'll be 100% ready for Monday night when recruitment starts!! =D

Much <3, Kristen

Aww, I had a friend that was rushing in a house too and it really does make you feel more comfortable with your whole day. I can't wait to see who your Rho is and what a great time you have! This is the first UCF story I've seen since mine and it makes me remember my rush and how much has happened in the last year! Enjoy every minute of it!

when i first read this post, i thought you said that your friend had a job as a taxi driver, and i was thinking "oh dear, i hope her schedule can be arranged so she can make all the parties." lol! glad i reread it.
