Thank you for sharing foreverinpink. I am getting the feeling that any house would be lucky to get you. Best of luck!

House Tours Day
Thanks for hanging in there, here’s house tours day! I was definitely nervous! I could barely sleep, nervous that I wouldn’t get an invite back. I headed to get my invite list the first moment I could. It looked like this:
Hockey
Gymnastics
Football
Baseball
Tennis
Even though I didn’t have a full schedule, I had five which I considered a big accomplishment! I was upset though to not see Golf, they were my favorite out of both open house days. I took it kind of hard and was glad that my break was first. But I am a big believer in the “Everything happens for a reason” philosophy, so I figured that it meant that I belonged somewhere else. Anyway, back to house tours:
Hockey - I decided to go into Hockey with a completely refreshed mind. But once again; I was paired with an active who I didn’t click with at all. Even though they were all very sweet, and their house was beautiful, I know this is not the house for me.
Gymnastics -I was shocked but thrilled to be invited back here! I talked to an active I’d never met or seen before, but we clicked perfectly. She was so funny and we had a lot in common. I was surprised at how much of a great time I had here, I didn’t want to leave!
Football – I was a little disappointed here today. Compared to the active I talked to yesterday, the girl I talked to today had nothing in common with me. We kind of struggled to find something we could talk about that we both liked. I still like this house though.
Baseball – Once again, I got that great home-y vibe here. Everyone is so genuine and classy! Their house is very pretty as well. I could totally see myself living here!
Tennis - Like Football, I was a little disappointed here today. I talked to some nice girls and had a good time touring their home, but it was nothing more than that. Just average. I hope that tomorrow will be better (if I get invited back).
For video day, we can visit a maximum of five. Since I had five I listed all of my chapters.
Yay, we are finally caught up! I’m so glad it’s the weekend; I should have a lot more time this way! Wish me luck for today! As always, I’ll try my best to give an update tonight.

Video Day
Hey guys, here’s video day! I have been having so much fun! I have had such a good time at every house! I wasn’t as nervous as I was for House tours invites, but still nervous none the less. My invite list looked like this:
Tennis
Gymnastics
Football
I was a bit upset to not see Baseball on my list; I eventually got over it though. Three invites wasn’t so bad! There was actually a few girls I know of who dropped out today. I hope they do eventually find a home.
Tennis - I went here hoping it would be better than House Tours, where I hadn't really felt good about them. As I watched their video, I could tell they had a really strong sisterhood, something I wanted. I got a little teary eyed; especially think about my mom and grandma. I could be their sister! I left with a renewed feeling of hope in Tennis!
Gymnastics - I was excited to go back here! I had a really good time with them the last round. Their video was really touching … and funny! It really made a difference for me to see how much fun they had together, I wanted to be a part of something like that! The girl I talked to yesterday came and said hi and we talked a little again. I just feel so at home there!
Football – After a not so great time there yesterday, I really hoped I would like them today. I had an okay time. There video was good, but in my opinion it wasn’t as good as the others. I know deep down that Football isn’t the place for me.
I can’t believe how fast Rush has gone! Tomorrow is prefs! I’m in shock. Anyways, for prefs we can visit a maximum of two chapters. My decision was easy as to whom to “drop”:
Football
Wish me luck for prefs! Pref Ceremonies and bid night are all in the same day so you may not get an update until Monday and I’m really sorry about that. I will try my hardest though!

ETA: Just read it..good story so far! I like how open-minded and wise you are, while still being classy and not dissing any of the houses. Good luck with prefs! (if it didn't already happen?)

Ditto! She said she might not post until Monday because of it all, so hopefully it is a good sign.
