You may have a total moment of "What have I DONE???" panic. This is normal.
You may not like every single person in your pledge class. This is normal.
You may not feel an instant love for every sister you meet. This is normal.
You might look at girls in other sororities and wonder if they're having more fun than you. They're not, and this is normal.
You may get door chants from other houses stuck in your head at strange times. Even 20 years after the fact, this is normal.
You may freak out about some of the following: your roommate, your classes, your grades, your lack of privacy, your insane schedule, lack of sleep, your parents, finances. This is normal.
If I could offer one piece of advice to any young woman entering college today, it's this...
If you need help, ask for it.
Whether it's from another sister who is a whiz with a glue gun, a classmate who seems to get it quicker than you, a Professor who offers office hours, or someone in Counseling Services who can help you sort through your feelings; ASK. FOR. HELP.
It's normal.
