I'm fairly new to my sorority, but I did (gasp!) think about depledging.

About 3 weeks in to my NM preiod, I was getting quite stressed. I'd wanted to be greek and I finally was, but I was SOO stressed.

I joined in March of this year as a sophomore. I already was busy with midterms, keeping a Dean's List GPA, going to local high schools everyday for my major, and Kappa Phi activities.

I joined Sigma and all of the sudden, I had composite pics, Derby Day's, chapter meetings, study hours, COB's, sisterhoods, etc.- ALL these things just sorta hit me. Don't get me wrong- they were very fun, I just wasn't really used to having so much to do along with school and other things.

So after Kappa Phi chapter meeting one night, I cried to one of my closest KP sisters and my KP big b/c I was just so overwhelmed. Big told me to depledge and that was exactly what I thought would be best.

I went home and and thought about my Arc Degree- Sigma's pledging ceremony- and the vows I took, and made up my mind that I wasn't going anywhere


So to ALL GC New Members: You will get stressed out. It will seem like alot to have 16 credit hours, soccer practice, plus chapter meeting, dinner, date party, ice cream socal, and big/lil in the same week- but remember why you rushed in the first place and how much you wanted to be Greek, and it will all work out.
