I mean, who doesn\u2019t love free food, mini-golfing and go-karting? Greek Life wasn\u2019t really the thing for me anyway. I didn\u2019t want to live in a house full of messy guys I barely shared any interests with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>But, things changed. I met the guys from the different house and got to know a lot of them. Now I\u2019m sitting in my dorm room after the preference dinners, not really sure what to do.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m torn between two Fraternities. My experiences with these two houses have shown me that my own time at Puget Sound wouldn\u2019t be complete without participating in Greek Life. I won\u2019t say names, so I\u2019ll just refer to them as John and Bob.<\/p>\n<p>Now John and Bob, they\u2019re both great guys. From day one, they were incredibly welcoming. John was really interested in what I had to say while I talked to Bob about Star Wars for a good 20\/30 minutes. I could be this huge gamer nerd with Bob, but John was a Geology major, what I intended to be.<\/p>\n<p>And the list just goes on and on.<\/p>\n<p>I went back in forth between their houses all weekend, gathering as much info as I could to help me make my decision. I even had breakfast with John and grabbed lunch with Bob today before preference dinners to try to get a better read on them. All I know is that I had a ton of fun these last few days and got absolutely nowhere in terms of a decision. Everything I learned about them just made them seem even more awesome.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the end, both John and Bob are just amazing. In a situation like this, there is no wrong answer. That makes this decision just that much harder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Right now, the Fraternities are sitting in a room, figuring out who to give bids to. There\u2019s no guarantee that I\u2019ll receive bids from either of these Fraternities. But I know that\u00a0if I do receive a bid or two, I&#8217;ll make the right choice.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first started Rush or Recruitment or whatever it\u2019s called, I was just in it for the food and activities.
