Dealing with jealousy

Hi y'all

I go to a small school with less than 10 sororities, and went through recruitment last year. Now on our campus there's a really weird and unfair thing where not all the chapters have houses - and it's not because they're just in the process of building new ones or anything, it's literally that the school will only allow a few of the chapters to have houses (it's less than 50% of them). I got a bid to an organization that I love and fit in with so well, but we do not have a house.

I am having a lot of jealousy this year seeing my friends in housed chapters living in their beautiful houses while I am in a normal dorm. I really wanted that house experience, and while I love my sorority so much, I feel like I am missing out a lot of the time. I keep reminding myself how wonderful my sorority is, but every time I see an Instagram of the girls in housed sororities baking cookies together at 2AM, or decorating together, or really anything my heart hurts a little. How do I deal with the jealousy of seeing these girls have the quintessential sorority experience, even though I know my chapter is right for me?

Blessings,
Carly
