My sis rush at UDUB

[thetaprincess]

Okay this is round 3. My sister said that tonight was made much clearer. She said their were definitly some philanthrophy that she felt more connected to then others but do not get me wrong - My sister said that these were all great chapters. She just wants to find her home for the next four years. So here it goes. She got six invites. She was so happy to be having a fun time during the whole recruitment process even though I think I personally more nervous here then when I got into medical school. But she is having fun.

Moscow
My sister said she fell in love with this house during this round. She said that she knows that this is the house for her because the girls just seem like someone she could be in jeans with and still be having a blast. She said the one of the girls that she talked with in a previous round ( I think housetours) came up and said Hi and Was glad to see that she was back here. She felt conencted to this philanthrophy for personal reasons. She said the conversations just flowed like two friends were talking the whole time that she was visiting this house. She said that these girls were some girls that she could see herself hanging out with outside of being in the house. The girls just seemed geninue and down to earth. My sister said that she left the house feeling sad because she did not want the conversation to end. She said she could see herself being happy here and spending the next four years of her life here laughing and being herself. She felt like she was herself in this house and felt totally comftorable. This is a place that she knows that she was wanted at. She was so estatic to be here and I could tell when she was telling me about this. She said she would be disappointed if she was not invited back here.

Barcelona
She said the house looked so incredible and the girls were totally like someone she could see herself being friendly but with tons of energy. She enjoyed the energy and loved their philanthrophy and made it feel like she was totally like the diversity and the fun that the girls were having definitly people she could see herself getting along with. She said the girl that she talked to seemed to girly for her taste but she definitly was loving the girls that she had talked to the previous days and she wondered if it was a fluke about the girl that she talked to? My sister said that she had felt a much better time the perevious days. She was digging that the girls that were in this chapter were not totally like her and she had the great impressions of the girls that she had talked to previously. She said she left the house wondering if these girls could be her friends but she said she knows that this house has a great sisterhood.

Berlin
She said that the girl she was paired with at first just was reminding her of a ditz with lots of energy. My sister said taht she had a feeling of a great chapter with a good philanthrophy. She said that this was definitly someone that she was not. She said that this turned her off intill she talked to the next girl. She said that the second girl talking to her made great conversation and made her feel welcome while being comftorable here and she knew that they actually wanted her. SHe said the first girl was just someone she could not be friends with but she realized that the girl she was talking to was not who the chapter on the whole with. The second girl made her feel like she was talking to her sister and that their was nothing really meaningful in the conversation. She said that she felt so so as she left the house. She did not have a great time here. She saw them more as aquaintances.

Amsterdam
Another philanthrophy that she said she felt a personal connection to because she had done volonteer work for one in our home town. She said the the girls in this house seemed geninue and the conversations were ones that made her wanting to know everything about her and she was able to get an idea why these girls joined Amsterdam. She said all the girls that she talked to made a time to get to know her. She said that she was able to make the girl who was leading her to the activity to laugh which she thought was something that made her smile. She said she was becoming more and more relaxed with the houses as the day wents on. She said she could have fun in this house. She said she was enjoying the diversity of this house and how each girl was totally individual yet had tons and tons of fun with thier house. The girls that she talked to gave her a great impression of the sisterhood. She wasnt sure she could see herself her for the next four years but is willing to see if she could.

Stockholm
She absolutly loves the philanthrophy of this house. She said the girl whom she was having an amazing conversation wtih today introduced her to whom she thought was the president. THe girl whom she was talking to seemed to know a lot of information about her. They seemed to be a lot of things that she had talked about in the previous rounds and she was impressed by the girl whom was rushing her today. She said the girls in this house made her feel relaxed. She really needed to feel relaxed if she was going to find the place she was going to call home for the next four years. She said she was quite surpised the amount of time had passed and it was all over. Wow - What a great impression that she had about yet another house. But she still has questions if she is even a Stockholm. She does not feel that she would actually fit into this house even though she is having great conversations.

Fianlly Rome
This was her favorite leading up to this round and quite suprinsly it was not after today. She was rushed by her best friend who obviously knows quite a bit more about her and thinks that she would be a good fit for Rome . She also thinks that she would be a good fit for Rome. This was the philanthorohy that she said was the least impressive to her. She was totally loving that she was able to catch up with her friend. Then another person came up and rushed her and she left her best friend. SHe was impressed with how effortlessly that conversatioin was going with all the girls that are in Rome. She is glad that she gave this chapter a chance. She said the girls in this house made her feel great about herself and that she was actually someone that these girls could see in their chapter and having a great day. She could see herself hanging out in this house and fitting right in.

Preference

Okay my sister was totally thrilled that she got her two favorites to prefrence but not thrilled with getting invited back to Berlin. But she told me at least I have my favorites and did not get excluded from there. She said that she was going in with open mind and at least give Berlin one last shot. I told her be herself and have fun. My sister is not the emotional kind of girl so I was totally shocked to here that she cried and ruined her mascara. Got to love preference parties. Okay im on my way over after I get done to surprise my sister with some gifts .... she doenst know Im here and Im suppose to be studing for med school but this in all honesty is more fun to do.

Okay off my sister trotted to her first preference party at Berlin.
She said she was not excited to be at this party. She said that the girl that took her inside was not someone that she had talked to but the conversation with her was really unsuperficial which really impressed her so much. But she said when girls got up and she thought they were seniors which I told her was correct were talking about how much Berlin meant to them. The girl she was talking with told her that Berlin wanted her in her sisterhood and that she got goosebumps. Then she said that she started crying when one of the girls said something and it like touched her heart. She told me she was totally impressed by thier sisterhood and enjoyed the great food that was there even though she said that she felt guilty eating so she took some nibbles because she was totally nervous to enter this house. She said that she had been nervous all day and the girl that had been preffing her made her feel relaxed and they talked about how great Berlin was. She said that these are girls that are totally like her even though she did not seem to think that when she left the round 3 party. She said she could see herself being friends with the girl who was talking to her. She was so happy to be asked back here even though she was upset at first and they were on her list but she totally changed her mind. She said that she made a wish on her way out of the preference party.

Then she went to Rome.
She said that her high expectations with this house just seem to be tumbeling to the groud. A girl that she talked to in round 1 came up and took her to a table where they were having a great conversation and some sweets. She said she felt like her nerves had calmed down a lot. She started crying when some of the girls got up and talked but she realized that she would be a great addition to this house. At first she thought it was disorganized but she said all the girls were some girls that she could hang out with and just have tons of fun. She also sad when she was waiting for the preference party that she enjoyed talking to some of the PNM who were also wating outside of Rome. She said she felt so much at home at this house. During her time here she just questioning if she felt as much at home at this house as she had imagined feeling at home here as she did at others. She knew these girls she would feel good at because she had been here before and thought it was special that the one house she went in thinking she would pledge has totally changed. But she said the sister that was talking to her the time seemed like someone who could be someone that she could get along with but could they really be that close of friends? She so much wanted to like this house more then she did. She says she hopes that her best friend does forgive her for not putting this as her favortie house.

Finally her favortie Moscow
The girl that preffered her was a girl that she had just barely talked to. She said they talked about why she choose Moscow over the other chapters. She was totally happy to see them and all the sisterhood and them reading a poem that she said. She said this house just seemed like the best fit and the girls that she would best fir with. She said that she got chills and noticed that her mascara had smeered at this party. She thought that this would be a bad thing to have this happen. She said that she was superemotional and had to make a wish with the gril who preffeed her and the girl said I hope your wish is the same as mine. SHe said the girl that preffered her she hoped would be able to be her sister. She said this is the house that she felt the best at. She was surprised to see her impressions change so much. Anyways she says that she belongs in this house. She said the preference ceremony and the conversation with the girl who was talking to her and I told her was preffeing her seemed the most natural and the person she could see herself being with in the long run. She said that this was her home yesterday and now she knows for sure that this is her house. She was totally enjoying her time her and sad to see that it had ended.

She ranked them
1. Moscow
2. Berline
3. Rome

[AXOUW]

Wow, it sounds like sis had a fantastic night. I'll be crossing my fingers for Moscow!! What time do they get their bids tomorrow?

[UWcutie]

We meet at 9... but I don't think we open our bids until around 10 or 10:30. Eeek!

[Benzgirl]

We will all be on the edge of our seats today.

[DeltaBetaBaby]

Wow, I'd love every PNM who drops out before pref to read this thread, and see how your sister's feelings changed about Berlin.

[KSUViolet06]

Wow talk about change! Her opinions did a complete 180 in ONE day!

This just goes to show that PNMs should try to stick it out through Pref because you ever know how you'll feel afterwards!
