Thanks for all you advice, the responses haven't been the most encouraging, but they have been one's I needed to hear nonetheless. I would like to say that this week I am going to take a break from "wishing" to be in ABC, DEF and GHI sorority. I'm in the one that I'm in and I am going to make the best of this week, trying to get to know the sisters and being an active pledge in the house. If at the end of the week if I still feel like I don't belong or more confused (which I think at this point is impossible) then I will think about depledging some more. I am going to pledge until initiation knowing that if I depledge I most likely will never have another opportunity to be greek. At this point I am a little disheartened because of the tiers at USC and the lack of social opportunities with certain fraternities that result from being in the house I'm in, but honestly I have come to terms with the fact that the social opportunities I will expierience will be far more that if I were a GDI and always wishing I were greek. Thank you everyone, hopefully the weeks ahead will be easier and I will find my niche at XYZ. It's just hard for me to stop thinking what if...
I am glad to see you are going to hang in there and try. Remember, you can be happy wherever you make your mind up to be happy. The group you are in obviously saw something great about you or they would not have extended a bid to you. If you let them, the what ifs will drive you crazy - and not just about sororities.

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. You alone are in charge of your attitude that will make or break everything you do.

Best wishes!!
