Honestly, if Sorors on this board or any other board, on your campus, in your area, etc. will give you tidbits, suggestions, criticism, etc. DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HEAR IT? SEE IT?
Many times, Sorors will try to do whatever they can (more than others), to help or lead a person in the right direction, ONLY to be "dissed" because the interest didn't like the response because they were "singled out", corrected, etc.
Why? Why does an interest have to go back and forth, round and round to make a point? Simply, take the point from the person who wears the PEARLS that you want to wear AND MOVE ON!
Sorors, what happened to HUMILITY?
Like a Soror said b4, "you're dayumed if you do and dayumed if you don't".
I just wanted to get the take of Sorors and SFs of AKA to discuss this.
Do you really want help?
(excuse the length)

I wasn't going to answer this thread until I got a email from a SF today which I really don't mind ( I love to help when I can). Number one as a fairly new member of Alpha Kappa Alpha I can clearly remember what life was like before I got my pearls. In fact I would say I am one of the more "gentler" sorors on greekchat when it comes to responding to sisterfirends. We constantly are drowning in a sea of repetitive questions every week but I just assume SF's are blind is this is the first light they see. However emailing a soror without asking permission, not introducing yourself (not names of course) and not explaining your situation and expecting an answer to your questions kinda gets to me, I mean come on!! Do SF's not get it HUMILITY, DISCRETION and PATIENCE are essential to obtaining membership. Don't like it tough seek something else. I can easily remember thinking to myself why are they (members of Alpha Kappa ALpha ) so rude and so unecessarily mean in their responses. Then I got it, Alpah Kappa Alpha is a SERIOUS MATTER that extends far beyond greekchat, your college campus, or your community. We LOVE, CHERISH, and VALUE what we HUMBLED ourselves to seek. I got that before I became a member and for all these SF's who don't get that before, trust me you'll never get it as a member. I am sorry for venting but I work to hard for my pearls to just hand them over to anybody. If any SF's are smirking and categorizing me as the newest "rude" member your probably one of the ones who doesn't get it. Release, Relax and Breath Wonderful........
