Rush week is nerve-wracking and exciting. Take it from the girl who has been going through it this past week. Thankfully, this wonderful week will end on Tuesday (by the time you read this, it's past this) and I can catch up on all my sleep. Do not get me wrong, I have enjoyed every possible second of rush week and I am so happy I can finally say I have experienced it, but we ALL have the same 12 thoughts when we go through these treacherous and sweaty days.
1. "What questions am I going to ask today?"
Seriously... each day you are always talking to actives... but what exactly will you ask them? The last minute questions always got me.
2. "My makeup is going to melt off my face!"
We go through the trouble of getting our makeup perfected to turn around and stand in the heat and sweat it all off.
3. "I feel like these other girls think I am weird..."
Come on girls, we are not competition. We are in this together. So do not look at me weird if I talk to you.
4. "How long have they practiced these songs?"
Seriously, I have not seen one girl mess up. How long did this take you guys?
5. "Where do I sit? Am I sitting in the right spot?"
I have sat in the wrong chair before.... EMBARRASSING
6. "Just give me my schedule!! I want to see who kept me!"
We have to wait 45 minutes.......... I am so impatient!
7. "'Boobs to butt' This girl is going to hate me for being all up in her grill."
Seriously, there is NO personal space during rush.
8. "I NEED A MINT."
They can smell my innards..... dear Lord bless me with a mint.
9. "She hates me. They will not pick me."
I just ruined this conversation in less than 5 minutes.
10. "How am I alive? I need sleep!"
I haven't had a decent night's sleep in 4 days.
11. "Time to tell someone no..."
You have to tell that sorority that your heart is somewhere else, but this has been SUCH A TOUGH DECISION..... UGH!
12. "BID DAY! BID DAY! BID DAY!"
THE BEST DAY OF THEM ALL! FINDING OUT WHICH SORORITY YOU GOT IN!
