XP: Sorority Post Funny

[MrsMB]

I was getting my annual emmission testing done on my car. While waiting on line, I decided to read some GBCN. I came across this on ML. 

Y'all this was almost identical to what we had to do in my sorority's rush week. Reading this caused something in my body to do something I can only relate to a panic attack LOL (As a side note, I became a "Rush Counselor" my last two years and didn't have to do all this.)

* Edit: This isn't my sororority...but that email gave me flashbacks! LOL

My best friend in college was in that sorority (different school). I remember her having a list just like that. I had to go shopping with her for all new clothes (WITH TAGGGGS FROM NICE STORES ATTACHED!! WE WILL CHECK!!). She had to wear Spanx at all times during rush week (Again "I don't CARE if you are skinny...we WILL CHECK to see if you are wearing them!"). It was mind-boggling as an outsider.

Isn't it crazy??!!! Like I literally almost froze in the emmissions line my blood pressure went up so much!! Apparently, I haven't gotten over it completely! LOL

It was pretty funny, especially because she was into it, but not really into it. So she would be like "should we go buy my white shirt and royal blue pants at Sears? That's nice, right?"

To calm myself down, I've been watching this squirrel video on Facebook: www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1159521504092204&set=vb.166337376743960&type=2&theater

Omg.. for real? These kind of things are why I never thought I'd join a sorority. Luckily mine is nothing like this! Our campus wasn't really like this at all either. We had really loosened up on our recruitment while I was active, although there was one sorority that kept things pretty stereotypical (think lots of matching, singing, the stuff you see in movies. Probably had rules about hair/makeup/etc. I'm glad I never went through "formal" recruitment because I probably would have run FAR away!). I hope people know sororities like mine do exist (even though mine doesn't anymore....) where we had all sorts of different people and the only rules we had about looks for events were certain t-shirts for certain things and black dresses for ceremonies. Other than that, as long as it was appropriate we didn't care!

I had heart palpitations reading that.

One of my favorite quotes from my sophmore year of recruitment, "We're not LEAVING (going to bed) until our door song is LOUDER than house at the end of the street. Like, I want to stand down there and hear you. DO.YOU.UNDERSTAND?!"

Ok I didn't read the article because my eyes might fall out of my head from rolling too much
