10 Items Every Girl Going Through Sorority Rush Needs In Her Purse To Survive The Week

Rush week is highly weighed on first impressions. I think the personality of the girl overrides how she looks, but I cannot speak for all people. You want to look your best so that you can feel your best and let your personality shine. Also, the rush isn't that deep so go into it with a positive attitude and have fun!

1. Blotting pads

Don't walk up in the house looking like a potato chip. Blot the T-zone even when you think you don't need it.

2. Lipstick

Make sure it's poppin' before each house.

3. Small fan

Even if it isn't hot where your college is the chapter rooms will be. So many girls in a small space. It's nice to give yourself a nice breeze between houses.

4. Mints

NOT GUM. Don't walk into a chapter room with gum in your mouth. It's tacky and not professional. You want the girls you talk to to pay attention to what you are talking about, not the glob in the back of your mouth.

5. Umbrella

Even if the forecast says it's impossible for it to rain. Rather be safe than sorry. No one wants to walk in like a wet rat.

6. Notebook with pen

This saved me. You think you will remember each girl you talk to in each house, but you can't. There are a million things running through your head. Write the letters of the house and something you remembered. Example: Alpha Pie, girl with purple eyeliner and blonde hair, talked about dogs, really liked, 8/10.

7. Powder

Always want to make sure your face is even and the sweat hasn't taken any foundation away. A quick pat of powder and you're good as new.

8. Hair brush

Brush through that hair girl. Get them tangles out.

9. Small towel

Maybe I'm the only one who sweats a lot, but my back was drenched during rush. I would wipe my back between houses. I never wanted a girl welcoming me into the house to feel my sweaty back while walking me in.

10. Energy drink

I had a Red Bull on hand at all times during rush. A few sips before each house to help hype you up.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
