Thanks for the supportive comments so far! i was exhausted last night, so i hope i supplied enough info for you guys

We met at the same place at 4.15 and all walked over to the row. We went straight down the row to:-

RUNNING- The girls in here were very complimentary and I really liked the first girl I spoke to. The second girl was fantastic until the very last minute. As she was walking me out and I was about 6 feet from the door she began to 'sell' the sorority a little hard. I still had fun though!

Then a break and on to...

POLO-- I was really excited for this house and i loved them. I spoke to a couple of lovely girls, and I felt that they liked me too. They then did a wonderful performance which was a great sendoff. I liked them!!

Straight to GOLF: So now I was feeling tired! These girls had a great welcome and I loved girls 1 and 3. I actually really hit it off with the both of them, and I had actually been apprehensive before I went in. I left with a really positive opinion

Straight onto TENNIS- words cannot explain how tired i was getting. I felt like i was going to get a tired twitch in my eye!! Great first girl, very withdrawn second girl....i could not connect with her, and really couldn't see myself there.....

Short break and onto LACROSSE-- These girls were very nice, and were great for the last party of the day. However, again, I couldn't see myself in there everyday etc... It was more polite convo than true 'wow i am totally connecting right now!!!'.

Then I went to meet my counsellor and had to rank my bottom 3 houses. I ranked them as below:-

gymnastics
tennis
lacrosse

so tomorrow i go to pick up my schedule and find out if the houses i like so far feel the same way

SO MUCH FUN, thanks for the support

Yay, a USC thread. I'm a rushing Trojan as well.

Can't wait for the house tours tomorrow. =)

FSUZeta · #4 08-26-2005, 07:27 AM

best wishes for your top invites tomorrow!!

Good-luck & I hope you find your home there. I myself went to Cal State Long Beach so I'm semi-close. Unfortunately, the Sigma Kappa chapter at USC is no longer active.

Wow you sound like you're having a great time

My feet were so sore after rush! And I even wore flip flops between houses...hehe.

It's also very very true about the girls on the other side being just as nervous as you (if not more!). I know I'm definitely nervous about going through rush on the other side this year...

Hope today goes well!

And remember, even if you don't get invited back to all houses, you can only join one house in the end

trojanpopcorn · #7 08-26-2005, 03:29 PM

Thankyou so much for all the support so far!!
I am currently waiting to go and meet with my counsellor to see which houses I will be attending for house tours. I am seriously excited, I can't contain myself! lol.

I will keep everyone updated!

BetteDavisEyes · #8 08-26-2005, 04:16 PM

Good-Luck!

Rydia · #9 08-26-2005, 07:55 PM

I hope you fared well with the invites trojanpopcorn.

I unfortunately got dropped from the 3 houses that I had the strongest connection and felt the most at home with and surprisingly got invited by a few that I ranked fairly low on my list.

Anyway, I don't mean to hijack your thread. I hope you're having fun at the house tours right now!

trojanpopcorn · #10 08-27-2005, 01:12 AM

Rydia- KEEP POSTING! i'm happy you are

I got invited back by 5 of the 6 houses that I wanted which I was REALLY pleased with

I went to :-

gymnastics
running
polo
golf
soccer
swimming

Right now, i'm exhausted so ill give more info in the morning....the house that came up to replace my cut was better than i thought but i still couldn't find a connection. I have to list the 2 I dont prefer as much in about 30 minutes, so i'm going with

running
gymnastics.

TIRED

a two for one thread! how exciting!

trojanpopcorn- looking forward to reading the updates.

rydia- did you drop? i think i might have over-read into your post.

lagirl33 · #12 08-27-2005, 02:00 AM

Trojanpopcorn,

That's awesome that you invited back to most of your top houses! Let's hope tomorrow's results go as well.

Rydia,

Even so, don't worry about the houses that didn't invite you back. Sometimes it takes a bit to feel the connection with a house, and remember, it's hard to always feel that true connection during rush.

I'm enjoying reading both of your usc threads!
