So today was the first day of rush. We went to 10 houses for 20 minutes each, with ten minutes in between houses. I started at 2 this afternoon and was done with the whole thing at like 845. What a day.
It was kind of confusing, because after fall rounds I had a pretty clear idea in my head of what three houses I would cut. Four even. So going into today I guess I had less of an open mind, and I liked houses I wasn't expecting to like. I have no idea how this is gonna work, I am using the plan I used while waiting for college acceptance letters to come out of not setting my heart on anywhere, because I don't want to set myself up to get hurt. But, in the end, I pick one in my head, and with college didn't end up there. But I'm happy here, and from what I hear about the school I orginally set my heart on I am glad I go here. I think. It all works out in the end, most of the time.
Is it bad to not set your heart on something for fear of being let down? Don't we have to put ourselves on the line once in a while to get what we want? I've heard that you have to risk it once in a while, just let yourself be vunerable. Maybe I should try that.
