I was never told the benefits of joining greek life in college. You see the movies about the stereotypical sorority girl. She is a thin, blonde girl who has the best wardrobe and makeup. She is the popular girl on campus but is failing a few classes. Her only goal is to be popular and go to parties. She gets black out drunk every weekend and has first pick of the frat boys.
Even though there may be a girl in a sorority somewhere that fits that criteria, there is SO much more to greek life than booze and boys. So here is what greek life means to me:
always having someone to go to Chipotle with
being proud of wearing letters
having amazing photo-shoots
attending meeting every week to see my sisters
having 100 advocates
branching out and trying new things
having a tutor
late night dance sessions
sharing my love of country music
stealing each others clothes
being the mother duck
crafting, crafting, and more crafting
always having something to do
finding my people
growing into myself
finding other crazy cat ladies
smizing
support in anything i do
a no judgement zone
Greek life means so much more than the stereotypes so next time you go to say something bad about sorority girls, think twice
