KiwiJuice08's Fall '05 Rush Thread!!
Well, recruitment is still a ways away, but I thought I would start my thread now! (Actually, I'm at work and I thought this would be a great way to procrastinate hehe). I'm rushing at a big midwestern school with lots of houses! I haven't quite thought of names for them yet, but I will do that sometime in the near future. I am super excited for rush, and as much as I'm loving my summer vacation, I kinda wish it was time to head down to school!! I am registered for recruitment, am in the process of getting all of my recs together, and all that's left to do is find something to wear to each event! Well, I suppose I should get back to work. I'll update soon!!

I love the names for the houses! I show Tennessee Walking Horses, and even though it's a whole different ballgame than show jumping, I still love all horse-related competitions. Your names for sororities are much better than mine would have been, though, had I named them for World Grand Champion Tennessee Walking Horses. There are 5 sororities on my campus, so I would have had things like Cash For Keeps ('00 WGC), Pride's Jubilee Encore ('01 WGC), Out On Parole ('02 WGC), The Whole Nine Yards ('03 WGC), and The Black Night Shade ('04 WGC). The sad thing is, those are some of the better TWH names!
Anyway, enough about horses. Best of luck with recruitment! Be prepared to get some odd looks when you mention that you ride horses, though. Or to hear things like, "Oh, my grandfather's cousin's ex husband let me ride one of his horses when I was 3!" LOL! It's something that kind of throws people off. I'll definitely be following this thread because I want to see how a fellow horse person fares. Good luck!

hehe, I know what you mean about people being thrown off by the riding thing! Whenever I tell people, they are like "Oh! I've gone on trails before!!" I'm like, umm, not quite the same!! People really don't understand the concept of competitive riding!! Oh well. Thanks for all the good luck wishes everyone!! I can't wait to start posting exciting things about recruitment...just a little over a month!

I bought a dress for second invite!! It's pretty - light yellow, lacey overlay (kinda, don't know how to explain it) strapless. It's definitely cute and very proper looking! :-) Now I just need to find cute shoes and accessories to go with it, my pref dress, and my first invite outfit!
