I've spent some time deciding if I wanted to say anything or comment on other people's posts and decided I'd say something.
I never said on this thread which sorority invited me so it's up to you to decide if it was AnnieSigKap's or just another sorority on campus. I decided not to say which one because what if I didn't get in, then maybe a girl from that sorority would be lurking about reading it. It's up to you to think which sorority I went to, or just not care which it was.
About invites at Truman, you can get a max of 5 and only go to 4. Unfortunately I only got 1 but it didn't matter that the other groups dropped me because deep down I wanted that single one. As I read about their philanthropies I really felt I could contribute with my heart. Sure I would have done all the philanthropies at any other sorority but my heart was with this one. They have the coolest date party and I really liked that, and I genuinly liked the girls. They weren't all just blonde or brunette or skinny or tall, they were all different! Diverse! It's nice to see a big group of smiling girls that are all different, because that's what makes everyone unique.
But, when I picked up my invite I immeaditly thought back to last year at that same sororities' party when the other PNM hardly let me say more than 5 words. When I first met my gammi chi I asked her how I would combat that if it happened again and she said try and ask questions about the sorority so that you can learn more and be able to speak some. I tried and didn't succeed well at all. But, that's alright. I guess when you think about it someone who speaks Russian is exciting, but to spend a lot of time talking about that, really made me feel bad. I speak french and for 7 years and they didn't seem interested at all. But like I said there are lot more french speaking girls out there as opposed to russian speaking girls.
Even though I felt like I came off boring at the party because I hardly got to say much I still really liked them. Sure, I felt hurt but that didn't mean I didn't want to be there. Heck, I still wish tommorow I could run down the hill into their group, but I can't, and I accept that. Do I have anything against XYZ> Not at all. I decided not to do much my freshman year because I knew I wanted to be in a sorority and devote a lot of my time to it and be on the exec board and so forth which leads me to why I decided to say something
Everyone on hear was supportive and said look for something else so when I found out my friend was going to try for a local service sorority I decided I would with her, so tommorow we are going to go to the informational meeting for the local service sorority.
