6. After Rush

After rush was over I found myself thinking .. "where do i need to be," "what do i need to be doing, " or "what do i need to be wearing." this funny questions haunted most of these the next few days. I was finally able to start catching up with school and doing more with friends. Although it's funny that I think I did better with school work when I had more to do and less time to work. Right now I'm not quite sure what to do with myself. I feel like the days are longer and more dragged out and I'm just ready for the holidays to get away for awhile. I've started to really notcie that there is not mcuh to do around this campus. I miss seeing everyone everynight making memories that will carry us out through the years. So now that rush is over I look forward to the holidays to take a break from school and everything else attached to it! It's nice to be able to go home!

5. Rush

Rush is a lonnngg tiring process that is just spread out over a month or so. At first I was all up for it then after awhile I was just ready to get pinned. Laguna's rush process was prolonged because of some issues. Obviously we were upset.. on top of having to do more rush stuff we had school, family, and friends to deal with. We all had out hopes up to get pinned the following week then it was just a total let down. Through all of this our pledge class has really come together and finished to the end. People who werent to into laguna dropped so if left us with a pledge class who really wanted to to be in laguna. What was the worst of it all was that we didnt know when we were going to get pinned. We got surprised one sunday night and got pinned. It was such a relief for us all! We found out who are big sisters were! It was really rewarded to go through all of that with my new sisters and still come out strong. We were encouraged by some sophomore girls to keep pushing on which was a huge blessing at the time when everyone was down. So I'm very proud of our pledge class and I wouldnt take back any moment spent with them over the (not so much) rush process. I'm very happy to be a laguna active now and have all these new sisters to share the next 3 years with!
