of course, with delayed rush comes preconceived stereotypes about the sororities. we have six at my school, and i guess i'll name them after the 6 friends characters cause that's nice and simple, but still fun.

Rachel-this sorority is historically known for having the best sisterhood bonds, but supposedly has a lot of the ugly/fat girls that don't party a lot? from what i've seen around campus this doesn't seem true.
Ross-has been known as the top one on campus, but according to some people the pledge class last year left something to be desired. huge party girls that got in trouble last year for dirty rushing. not sure how i feel about them yet, but someone from my high school is currently in this sorority.
Monica-second in command to the Ross's. supposedly all the jappy girls from the north are here. ive heard that they do a lot of coke. yet, every single Monica ive met has been genuinely nice and friendly. based on the girls, im interested in this one.
Chandler-these are the sweet girls that like to go out and have fun, but still stay classy. other than that i don't know too much about them.
Joey-the southern girls. very conservative and supposedly very stuck-up. ive met some nice ones and some kind of stand-offish ones, but im willing to give them a chance.
Phoebe-i don't really know a lot about them either, though my big sis from another group is in this one and she likes it, but it was her second choice when she was rushing. supposedly no one pays attention to these girls. i dont know, i like my big sis, so maybe if the girls are like her...

anyway, im so excited to be here and to start rush in january!

I'm still trying to figure out if she was refering to JAPS (Jewish American Princess) or "japs" as in a deragatory remark towards the Japanese.

Either way, it's insulting as hell.
