First off I gotta say that I have really curly hair as well and I never have used that much hair spray. Its actually really bad for your hair! Use John Frieda hair serum or other more natural products to de-frizz because all the hair spray is doing is making your hair hard and not natural which no one likes. Plus, I would like to clue Jordan in on picking up a hair dryer and trying to straighten her hair? I do that to mine all the time.

As far as the show is concerned, its crap. And I thought Real World and Road Rules were bad. First off, I am sick of it always being about Jordan and Candace. I am so sick so seeing those two all the time on the camera. You would think the cameraman had the biggest crush on them or something (wouldn't doubt that one). I don't blame the sisters for not warming up to them. They are a bunch of sluts! or at least thats what they portray themselves to be. I don't care if MTV is editing and they only show the party drinking scenes, you should know better than to act like that on camera! They are never going to get the fact that they are not only representing their sorority at UC Davis, but to the WORLD because they are being FILMED! Its like they have no self-respect. I would so have kicked them off already. Actually, most of the pledges I heard didn't make it to initiation. I would be extrememly surprised if either Jordan or Candace made it. I am sure if they did, their sisters are not happy with them now that the show is being aired and they all get to really see how bad things were!

Someone straighten me out about something: During the criticism of the show and some of its members, exactly WTF does hair style and make-up (you not liking it) have to do with the show or the girls? It doesn't strengthen your argument.

Its like, "she is a serial killer but did you see the perm that looked like a poodle on her? And purple wigwams? I just knew she was bad news!" LOL

So why do you guys feel compelled to mention it lol?

because we can.

because we like to...so there! :P

LOL, you are not telling us that ladies bond by cutting up on other ladies' appearances are you? lol :p

(Edited to add)

Saucer of milk to some of the ladies of GC . . . meow:)

Yeah we do ... and by picking on guy's appearance's too!

OK, random question, but does anyone else find the commercial of Sorority Life where they're all dancing and chatting in different rooms with the song "The Sign" by Ace of Base playing in the background somewhat cheesey???? :p :p

Every time I see it I'm like "ugh, this is so set-up!!!" Just wondering if anyone else felt the same way.

Ya know whats weird....the girls living in the house are totally separated from the rest of the pledges. They mentioned once that there were 14 pledges all together, but do we ever see them?? NOOOOOO! And what ever happened to sisterhood events? Apparently those rules don't apply to them? Wow I'm completely confused as to the point of this show now!

~Rebecca :rolleyes:

"It's a PHI SIG thing!"

You only see the rest of the pledges when its time for a weekly pledge meeting...

Someone called the girls sluts. From what we have seen that is a totally unfounded statement. So maybe they drink and they dance a little provacitively (spelled wrong, sorry!), we don't see them going home with random guys. In fact we've seen hardly any guys. They have not been shown to be sluts at all. And the reason they forcus on Jordan and Candace, CHARACTER DEVELOPEMENT. Viewers want to get to know and follow the girls not get random glimpses of a whole bunch of girls. And puh-leaze, like you didn't do some underage drinking when you are/were in school. Everyone knows it happens (inside and out of the greek system), I hardly think that it's bad press showing the girls drinking. And someone also said that Amanda was a follower, she so is! It's kinda sad, she's one of those people who adopt the personality of the people around her. At least Candace and Jordan have their own personalities. And I have never been a fan of Jessica and finally she is starting to show her true colors. She laughed at the girls who were in trouble, to their faces! Seriously, that was uncool, those are your sisters. In my chapter when one or more girls get in trouble it's the whole chapter that will get talked to and if punishment is in order then the whole chapter suffers. That's how I think the actives should have handled the situation, not singling out a few girls.

Someone straighten me out about something: During the criticism of
the show and some of its members, exactly WTF does hair style and
make-up (you not liking it) have to do with the show or the girls? It
doesn't strengthen your argument.

It's easy, you just need to look at things from a female perspective.
When you are born into the world with two X chromosomes, clothing,
make-up, hair, shoes, all form a kind of language (especially shoes).

The reason people like Jordan make such a strong impression is because
she speaks volumes before she ever even opens her mouth. In last
night's episode she was in tears because she felt like she was being
attacked by people who were making no effort to get to know her for
the real person she is. But... when you make such a strong statement
people are going to judge you either way, so it's better to be
outgoing and friendly so that people get the "right impression" of
you. This is the kind of "well-rounded" behavior that sororities try
to encourage in their ranks.

See? It's really not that hard to understand.

So when did Jessica become Mother Theresa meets sorority MVP?

As soon as she was introduced people on here were like, we like Jessica, she is a good example of a pledge, before we knew anything about her!

Didn’t they show her blowing off her other pledge sisters when they asked if they were invited out with the other pledges?

Doesn’t she claim that they aren’t accepting her while holding herself apart?

Didn’t she make a wierd comment about them being really good-looking while
explaining that they weren’t accepting her?

Didn't they show her drunk at a bar and shaking her ass?

Wasn’t she writing a note to her pledge sisters about their trouble-meeting when most of
them were down the hall from her?

Didn’t she laugh at them when they were in trouble?

So she is so awesome why? Did I miss a meeting?

Sorority Life???
 

I've watched the show a couple of times b/c the title entriged me... however, these girls are pledges!! They don't know what its like to be a sorority girl really! I'm sorry-- if its so much about these girls it should me "Life as a Pledge." Grrr..

I was thinking about how odd it was that it was this random jewish sorority... Sigma Alpha Elipson Pi.... Then I realized no one's Headquarters would let them do this, and NPC would have a fit.

However, I if they are going to have it for girls, they need to have "Fraternity Life" as well!

MTV/SAEPi is probably getting paid mucho bucks for her to wear that. If you notice, the sleve has "Greek 101" written on it, as in the online greek store that makes rhinestone tees. Paid advertisement.

Oh, have you also noticed that their computer always has a Yahoo screensaver on it, and on the last episode one of the off camera pledge's laptops had a "Do you Yahoo!?" sticker on it.

Gotta love commercialization... :rolleyes:

James, I don't know that she's the perfect pledge, but she's one of the better ones that we're seeing (besides Dede...who we don't really "see"). Even though we've seen Jessica at the bar and not getting along with her roommates, we do see her interacting with sisters and pledges not living in the house, which is a little more realistic.
