Emye's Rush at UCLA! :-)

I will be starting rush at UCLA on Sept. 27th and am really excited!

The sororities are:

Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Epsilon Phi
Alpha Phi
Chi Omega
Delta Delta Delta
Delta Gamma
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Alpha Theta
Kappa Delta
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Pi Beta Phi

My cousin's a DG at USCD and she wrote me a letter of rec. And I also got rec letters for Theta and Alpha Phi from one of our close family friends who I ride horses with. I've looked into the sororities, went to all of their websites, etc. But right now I think I just want to go in with an open mind and see which girls I feel I could get along with best.

Our schedule is:
Mon Sept 27th -
Informational Meeting 1pm, Orientation Meeting, 5:45 pm
Tues Sept 28th -
Recruitment day 1, 11 events, 10am-7:30pm
Wed Sept 29th -
Day 2, 8 events max, 9:30am-6pm
Thurs Sept 30th -
Day 3, 4 events max, 4:30pm-10pm
Friday Oct. 1st-
Preference, 2 events, 5pm-10pm
Sat. Oct 2nd-
Bid day

I went shopping yesterday and got this really cute light blue tweed jacket, lightweight dark grey pants, and these really cute black kitten-heeled sandles. I'm also going shopping the Sunday the 26th...:-)

So far, I'm set on my dress for pref's. It's turquoise, halter, with a really drappy fabric.

For the other days, I still have to decide....

Good luck. Remember go with your heart. Keep an open mind about everyone, but dont shut someone out because of something small. See if you can imagine these people as your sisters and if youd love to spend time with them all the time, you know who you need to go with.

Keep us updated.

According to the UCLA's school calendar on their website, the first day of instruction isn't until the 30th (UC schools start later than most the other schools)
