Thanks for the advice.
A friend of mine is against me going to college down South (mainly just because she thinks it is ridiculous to pay for out-of-state tuition) however I am having mental battles.
On one hand, I really want to go to school in the South. I have for a while now and I think that if I didn't, I would regret it. College is not something that you can just go back and do over. It's four years of your life that you will remember forever, you know what I mean? I'm sure I'd get a good education and have a good time here in WA but I think I will always regret not going to a Southern school.
On the other hand, sorority membership is something that I want very badly as well. I'm sure I could pick somewhere else and go to school there, as well as be 99% certain I could get a bid, but then how would I feel about "selling out" (for major lack of a better term) just so that I can be in a sorority?
Then, when I think about it like that, I wonder just how happy I would be at a southern school if I weren't in a sorority.
Meh. I am conflicted. But I am definitely 90% that in the end my decision will be to go down south and go through with it, if for nothing else than to know that I actually tried and put my best foot forward. I'd much rather try and fail than never try and wonder "what if" 20 years from now.
