What fraternity are you rushing?

Well they will probably take your jacket, but in reality it probably won't be as bad as you think it will be. Just remember to have fun, and initiation is right around the corner.

Lol it's not that damn cold outside! Try being outside at 0530 in early january and them telling you to take everything off but your t shirt and shorts cause your going for a 3 mile run!!!
And on the not letting them break you thing, just take everything they say and laugh about it on the inside. Cause why should you let it bother you that someone wants to be a dick? Dont let it! Find a way to make everything they say to you funny on the inside thats what I did in basic and ait.

Make it look like you are having the time of your life. Thats what my platoon did in basic, our Drill soon made our "smoking" sessions a little more tolerable whereas the other platoons would bitch and complain only to get it worse. These guys are making sure that you are willing to go thru what they did, if you act like a ***** and complain they are more than likely to focus on you. On the other side, if you act like you love every minute of it, it becomes harder to "torture" you.

Ok, I'm missing something, what does fraternity rush have to do with armed forces? You in the core at A&M or something? Basic training wasn't any fraternity life....it was ***** out every morning, there were no college Mary Rottencrotch's to bang on the weekends....just ugly smelly guys farting & snoring up a storm in your 8 man room, lol.

Oh, and for surviving anything, it's always your own will that will be tested. Just remember in a short time it will be over. If you aren't dead or disabled, just block it out & think of something else if you are doing PT or something. I don't see how the pussies dropped out of our road marches when I was in basic. There were guys that were in way better shape than me & did better on their PT tests, but I was one of the few that would move up in formation & be right behind the drill sgt. Putting one foot in front of the other, then let your mind wonder & think about other things. You will also feel a lot better if you don't cop out or quit....

Hellweek has been compared to basic training several times. I have several friends that have rushed and all of them have looked like I did after our "sleep deprivation" phase of basic after hellweek.
