i'm scared

Some of them especially sophomores new to rush are just as scared to talk to you as you are to them. I think the wedges height difference (plus our makeup and hair can stay in place while y’all are outside in that humidity, I know my Make up and hair weren’t awesome after breaks). I can totally seem how you would be intimidated but just try to keep a conversation going with the active so they don’t have to ask a million questions and be yourself!

Talk. Somehow - figure it out. Make conversation. Look girls in the eye. Smile. Laugh.

Honestly. Too much on here relative to advice was aimed at ranks, spreading hate, clothes ideas, etc.

Girls need to learn how to have a conversation - where did you go on vacation, how was your move in, what activities did you like in HS, what do we do in the house relative to activities, anything. Tell a story. Even if you’ve told it in 15 houses before. I haven’t heard it!

There SHOULD have been a thousand posts on here telling you to put your da-n phone down, quit texting and TALK to people.

Not to be mean, but girls are going to cry over cuts, but it it is hard to talk to many of you. I had many convos where I talked to myself most of the time. Yes/No is not an answer.

I get it it’s easy when you click - a shared experience, etc. But learn to look for those things you may share. Keep asking questions.

Talk of it “kills” you.

Being a drunk party house and being able to carry on a good conversation are two completely different things.

Deep breath ... smile ... talk.
Also a clue ... when you're comfortable in a house, it means you belong there.
