Hi Heather. I would have preferred to comment to you by email rather than a public forum, but you don't have an address listed.

Quoted by Heather:
I want to be the pretty sorority chick that all the guys fight over. I never even went to my proms i just sat home and felt sorry for myself, because all of my chick friends are SOoooo pretty and i was not as pretty at they were. They got all the cute guys and i got stuck with the dorks. I want to become a new person in college.
---------------------------------------------
You don't have to be in a sorority to have that impact. When I was in high school, I did not go to my proms, I did not party, and I was an introvert (very shy). The only thing that pushed me to the forefront was my musical abilities. I wanted to make a change in college also, but I remembered something that I want to caution you to remember. Education is the reason why you're there. So, although I did get a better fashion sense while I was in school, and I pushed myself to get out a little more (although I still don't like to party, but that's just my personality), I made that change before I joined a sorority. Trust me, fun (lots of it) will come with college as well. But when you join a sorority, make sure it's for the right reasons. Not just to be pretty, popular, or have guys fight over you. You can be pretty and self confident (that attitude alone will draw popularity and guys)without a sorority. Being in a sorority is not what drives guys crazy, and if a guy didn't act interested in me before I got my letters, trust me, he need not look now that I have them. And to be honest, you have to bring a strong sense of self into a sorority to succeed. Without that, you'll change into something not that many people (including your future sororty sisters)will like. Your life will revolve around being an XYZ, and that's not good. You want to help make that sorority, not have the sorority make you.
So, no harm was meant by this post, but I felt compelled to respond to you. You sound like a very charasmatic young lady and if you can exude that much energy over the net, then imagine what effect you can have on people in person.
