My very anti-Greek older sister and I were watching a silly movie about sororities and how they select members. I kept telling my sister that it was completely ridiculous the way they presented it. There was only one sorority on campus and you either made it in or you were a pariah.
So my sister asks how it's really done.
Sis: Do the girls who want to be in a sorority meet with girls at each chapter?
Me: Yes, they do. It's not like they only focus on one house where everyone is evil.
Sis: So how long do you spend with them?
Me: At first only about 15 minutes. Then the parties get longer.
Sis: You base your judgement of a person on only 15 minutes?!
Me: Well, at first we do but it's not as superficial as it sounds!
Sis: Do you judge them on their looks?
Me: Well, partly. But we all initially judge people in life by their appearance.
Sis: Only superficial people do that!
Me: No, it's not just superficial people.
Sis: Okay then what else do you judge these girls on?
Me: We look at personality, extra-curicular activities, grades. Lots of stuff.
Sis: Yeah, right.
But it comes down to being cute.
Me: No it doesn't.
Sis: Yes, it does!
Me: No it doesn't!
Then all of a sudden we aren't watching the movie anymore, we're hovering in the air in the back of my chapter's chapter room while MS is going on.
Sis: OMG they're talking about specific girls!
Me: Of course they are. How else can you do it?
Sis: I can't believe you're in a sorority! I just can't believe that you would do this!
And as my sister disappears through a wall I run after her yelling
"It's not that bad! Really! It's not!"
