I did not get caught in the rain while at school, but on my way home from work. I was done with the ranking and at work by 5.

Tina, are you going to share your rankings, or are you going to be a tease?

Ok, I tried to post all morning yesterday for all of you addicts out there who have been following my story. But technology hates me and GC would not load!! So here is the deal with Sunday (Skit day) and Monday (Pref night):

When I got my schedule back on Sunday, I was a little upset. 2 of my fave's (Grape and Pear had cut me. So I only went back to 3 houses. I had a break in the morning, so another girl in my group and I went to starbucks and cheered each other up. I felt much batter about my remaining choices, though, and really enjoyed the day. I don't remember the order I went to them, so here's the order of how I ranked them:

Mango: This has been one of favorites all week, and today just cemented it! I got to be rushed by the same girl I'd talked to the first day (yay!) and we had a great time. I LOVE their house and their skit was HILARIOUS! I laughed the whole time! I really felt comfortable with the other girls in the house that my rusher introduced me too, and I really feel like we all have the same sense of humor.

Plum: This house is going to make my decision difficult. It turns out one of my best friends has a friend in this house, and I finally got to see her today! We didn't realize we'd met each other until she was giving me and another rushee the tour and I mentioned I knew someone who went to her high school, then it clicked that we'd ALL gone out together last week (it was dark then and I didn't recognize her at the house right away!) so that was really cool. Their skit was also super funny and everyone is sooo friendly!

Strawberry: The girl who gave me and another rushee the tour was a sweetheart, and I really liked talking to the girls right before the skit. It had a really cute theme, and the way they decorated touched my heart.

So, at the end of the day I ranked them all, and then stressed about it all day at school. I kept calling home to see if my Rho Chi's had called me, and kept expecting to see them walk into one of my classes. On a side note, there are a bunch of sisters from 3 chapters in my last class of the day, and after seeing them outside of recruitment, I know that those houses were not for me, and I'm much happier with the cuts that were made.

So first day of classes came and went without incident, so I went to a fellow rushees house to get ready for Pref. I didn't know how many I'd get back, but I was just happy I was going to any at all. We were allowed to go back to 3 chapters, and I got invites back to all 3 houses!! I was so excited! This is the order in which I saw them:

Strawberry: I finally got to meet someone I'd been looking for this whole week. She knows who she is, so I won't name names, but what's funny is that I didn't realize it was her until after she'd left me to do the ceremony, so I didn't get to tell her I made the connection. Their ceremony was very touching, and the testimonials made me teary. I'm so glad I met these girls.

Plum: Oh my goodness, I can't beleive my heart is torn the way it is. After coming back to this house and hearing about how much the girls like me, I didn't know what to do! I talked to a girl who'd rushed me the 2nd day I was there, but she was telling me how a bunch of girls were fighting over who got to do it tonight! They gave each girl a flowere they thouht represented her, and I got a sunflower. This is a total sign, because that is my favorite flower! I have a tatoo of them around my ankle. I cried like a baby at their ceremony. A big sis read a letter to her lil and the lil read one back. The 2 of them rushed me the first day! So now I don't know what to do!!

Mango: I wanted to wait unti after I saw this pref before I made up my mind, and it's a good thing I did. I got to be preffed by the girl who'd been there for me the whole week, and I heard from her the same thing, about "fighting" to get me! I think as soon as I walked into this house, I knew. I could see myself hugging each and every girl here on bid day, and I didn't really see that at the other houses. I cried like a baby at their ceremony!

So, after it was all over, me and a girl from group that had gone with me to every party that night had a huge decision to make. We were both torn over the same houses, her a little more than me. It took forever to get our decisions finalized, but we finally did it. I though it would be great if we got to be sisters, but she went with Plum first and I with Mango. But who knows, we could still end up together.

So that's it, after today you all get to know where I'm going and where I've been. 5:00 can not come fast enough. Thank you so much for your support through this exhausting process, and I can't wait to tell you all everything!!

Wow, this post is hella long!!
