My freshman room mate talked in her sleep, in a FOREIGN language that I had never even heard of at that time. The first time she did it, she sat straight up in bed and started rattling stuff off. Scared me to death....

We were definitely nothing a like. BUT, we both survived the year.......

Alright girls...1st round was today. WHOOP!

We had 6 45 minute parties. Since there are only 6 sororities on campus, we have pretty long parties. I decided I would code name the by places to surf and beaches and stuff...and ill reveal who is who come Saturday Night!

Ill kinda rank them in order of who i liked, and ill give an explanation of the beach and such:

North Shore : These are the most intense waves in the world. More people die here than anywhere else, and is a great place to surf. Pipe Masters are held at north shore..its the best beach to surf by far. This group was AWESOME! I have never felt more comfortable in my life. Everyone was so happy to be there and I met so many sisters...they all had something to say and said that I talked alot and kept the conversation going, whereas the girl that was rushing me said she had quiet ones all day. This is the house I liked the best, and first impressions do count! They were so fun and happy and you could really tell they were into it.

Hunington Beach : One of the best beaches in Cali, a ton of surfers go here. This one I really liked a lot also. It was a pretty close tie, and I had a great girl talk to me for the whole entire time. I had a group of 5 girls talking to me at once from this chapter...it was really neat and I felt special and loved..haha. I really liked everything I heard and liked how they interact at the school.

Myrtle Beach: Another great beach, this one on the East Coast. These girls were so peppy and fun, and made me feel right at home. They are really big into philanthropy and intramural sports, and they wanted to give me a Miss Volunteer Award just because i did so much in HS. I blushed at that... haha.

Destin beaches: I ran out of specific names to think of, but alot of the beaches in florida are pretty awesome. This group of girls were the first one I went to, and I kinda felt like i dominated the convo. I was with one other girl and just kinda took off with teh convo..i asked all the questions and she stayed pretty much silent throughout the whole thing. These girls were super nice and I felt very much at ease with all of them.

Surfside: A beach in Texas where you can catch some waves..about the only one in Texas. This group was very conservative and didnt seem too outgoing. I like to be loud and all into it, and I felt like this group might sit me in a corner if I talked too much...but I had great convos and liked these girls too.

Galveston: I was very disappointed with this group. Ive heard so many great things about them nationally, and I think that made me kind of biased. This is a very small chapter and i seemed to always be struggling for conversation with this group. It seemed like the longest 45 min. of my life. They were nice, and i got to meet most of the officers and such.

Overall, great day! Im so impressed with the greek system at UNT..they try to make a spot for everyone who rushes. Ill post tommorrow after 7 with which ones invited me back...I can only go to 4. Pref I can only go to 2...then tis BID DAY! WHOOP

Loved your beach references and enthusiastic commentary -- yours is one of my fave rush threads!! Can't wait to read the next installment!

P.S. I went to high school in Huntington Beach (Edison); body surfed at the North Shore; sailed my Hobie Cat at Destin (lived in Mary Esther!) and hubby used to live in Myrtle Beach!

I wish you the best of luck

have a great time!
