This thread definately hits home with me--
When I was living in DC, I had the most HORRIBLE roomates, who all had not been greek and thought sorority girls were slightly better than serial killers. Literally, they would make horrible comments to me about how they would love to have me come out with them but they didn't want to be seen with a sorority girl or people would think they were sorority girls. It was horrible!
When I finally told them I was moving out and moving to Atlanta to be closer to my college friends and to my parents, one of them looks at me and goes(AND I QUOTE)
"You know, Atlanta really is that city for sorority girls that need their mommies and daddies....DC is the city for people with strength and backbone" (seriously, I could have been a serial killer at that moment)
But when I took a moment to breathe, I realized that
A. I was a sorority girl, because that meant I had a legacy of loyalty, sisterhood, friendship, and bonds that no one else but sorority girls understand
AND
B.I did need my mom and dad, I loved them more than life itself, and because of them, I understood how important FAMILY is
So, what I am sure the roomate from hell thought was a comment to destroy turned out to be compliment.
I AM a PROUD sorority women and a DAMN PROUD AOTT
