I don’t regret pledging my sorority, because I’m glad I’ve had the friendships I’ve had. It can be hard dealing with people calling my sisters out for being “freaks” and I hate the silent awkwardness that follows when people ask what sorority I’m in and I tell them I’m in the bottom house on campus. In the end the memories I’ve made with my sisters is what I’ll remember, not what houses were “better” or “prettier” or “cooler”. It’s college for god sakes. We are here to make connections and get an education to better ourselves. Just like you said, when we get out into the workplace it won’t matter which house was better than the others.
I spent over a year with a boy who treated me very similarly. He had to know where I was all the time, and didn’t like me going out with friends. I had such a busy schedule that I couldn’t see him as often as he wanted, and he brought that up all the time. He’d say things like “It’s like you don’t even want to be with me” when I told him I couldn’t spend the night at his apartment so I could finish my assignments and if I didn’t want to have sex that night he would roll over and fall asleep not even wanting to talk to me. It was hard, but I realized I was unhappy and we were meant to be. I hope you have the strength to realize what you need to do. You sound like a wonderful person and deserve to be with someone who treats you right.
Recruitment was a nightmare for me. I didn’t have a “perfect” rush like most girls at my university did. Actually, when I opened my schedule for round two I found out all but three of eleven chapters cut me. I tried to remain optimistic, but it was disheartening. I had wonderful conversations with multiple houses in round one and was told things like “can’t wait to see you tomorrow” only to be cut from them the next day. At pref night it was between my legacy house and my current house. I felt almost no connection to my legacy house, but was going to take the bid from them since they were ranked “higher” on the social ladder than my current house. It sounds awful, but when you come to college social acceptance trumps true friendships.The next day I received a bid from my second choice house and I was at first horrified. Now I realize that the girls i’m with all went through similar experiences. We are all wonderful, beautiful women who fell through the cracks of the system. Most of us didn’t know people already in the “top houses” and a lot of us are from out of state. I connect so strongly with these women and have a sense of sisterhood that make me glad I decided to do rush. However, if I was told I had to go through formal recruitment as a PNM again I know I wouldn’t do it. It was easily the worst week of my life.
yo where does one find that TSM plastic cup?
Thank god I’m not alone! My friends don’t understand why I don’t like it, but this article is pretty much my life. Lol
I am so proud of my chapter’s and Jacki! So much love!
Tired of my schools Using and Scandals productions always being on Total Sorority Move. Like they aren’t news.
But this wasn’t just Greek organizations. A lot of those involved were fraternities and sororities, but you have to remember this was university wide.
It makes sense that most guys who are high can’t last as long. Of course I was always stoned with them, so it felt like an eternity.

I seriously hope this was a joke. Cause I’d cry if this happened to me.
Sorry not sorry, I love proposals like this. The fact that a man put in that much work for his girlfriend is sweet.
Season 8 was the last season I watched religiously, but I’m still obsessed with the talent on this show. Mad love for dance ❤️

Preach! I feel this article on a personal level.
