I know I’m about to be shot down for saying this.. But I support her message in the video. I don’t necessarily agree with how she went about publicizing her issues with her chapter; however, I can relate on some aspects. I too dropped my sorority last year (at the end of my freshman year). From that time to present day, I can truthfully say that my eyes have been opened to some of the painfully stereotypical “sorority girl” acts of many of my ex-“sisters.” Before joining a sorority, I thought that sorority life (aside from the party scene) was about being a part of a group of girls, similar enough to you, that they chose and were chosen to become a part of the same selective organization. After loving my sorority for a year, I decided to drop due to the fact that I believed that the overly-excessive rules that I felt my chapter had were in place, not for the well-being or in the interest of the members at heart, but so that we looked a certain way to everyone else. I felt as though it was more about being seen and portrayed as “the best” from the outside looking in than it was about being well-grounded young women and sisterhood. After dropping, I soon found myself losing the girls I had built connections with over the past year. Many of them acted as if I wasn’t good enough anymore because I wasn’t a part of their sorority. No longer did I get friendly smiles and “hellos” when I passed girls in my chapter, instead it was like I didn’t even exist. Ironically, I lost a small chunk of my Instagram followers. I guess what I’m trying to say is that people have good experiences and bad experiences with Greek life. Mine happened to end negatively, just like the girl in the video. This doesn’t mean that I didn’t enjoy being a part of my chapter when I was, it just means that I realized it wasn’t for me.
So glossy
This is awesome
Lmao #21 “shmerkin’ berls”

The down-right cutest story I have ever read
So pretty much any relationship ever is not actual commitment…
Never
Modest
Artsy
What she look like without makeup doe?
“Try on your old Hollister jeans.”
“Wonder how you were ever that skinny.”
Accurate.
I wish people praised me when I ate wings
Number 8 made me feel real self conscious
Don’t really feel like mental disorders are anything to joke about.
I see you
Well shit
This is possibly one of the most creative pictures I’ve ever seen
Worst decision I ever made
So much for freshly shaven legs
