well said BROTHER!!!
That was so beautiful i enjoyed it. This whole thread has been sooooooooooooo funny!!! I wish i would go to
AKA Ave and do an IVY stance or stomp over to the
DIVA-STATING DIVAS of DST and drop off my 19.13 cents worth of anything. rofl On the way back I'll stop and
see the sigs and drop off a wee-oop and a
Z-Phi So Sweet to them ladies in blue...and as far as the
SGRho's I'm already reppin Blue and Gold so what's up?!?
Prettie...don't take it to heart...you have heart...that's a good thing...you are willing to hold your own...that's a good thing...you don't follow the crowd, that's a great thing...and you willing to do what you feel is right regardless of what others think...thats great sweetie but you are still a pledge...let me tell you a lil something about our history...
Frank Reed Horton wanted to create an organization where the pledges were treated as equals to the Brothers. I can only speak for myself...when I read this I thought a lot of the same things that my brothers thought but I'm in a good mood right now so I'll be nice.
It is not our intention to treat you like crap cuz you ain't frat...but you don't have the same rights and priviledges as frat yet either. There were times where my Big Brothers from my chapter and others did and said things that I didn't agree with, but I knew that this was not my time to shine. After I crossed *and I didn't cross nobody's burning sands...we don't use that term* I was and still am one of the most outspoken brothers you will ever meet. I am tight on my info and history cuz I choose to be...even still let me meet frat thats fall 02 or older...I'm meeting them like hey how you doing and I show them love and I realize that they have been in the frat longer than I have...even if its only a semester. I was the vp of my chapter last yr and I hold a position on the sectional staff this yr. If I were to meet a brother thats older than me that has not been active since they "crossed" I'm not gone act like I"m better than them cuz i hold a position or i got knowledge...I'm still comin to them humble b/c they might have something that they can teach me...and you can teach older frat stuff...i have done so many times but it's all in how you do it...
let me let you in on a lil secret...you can say whatever you want to say it's all in how you say it...i have corrected older brothers but just not in a disrespectful way...as much as you "might not" have tried to have been disrespectful the point is you came in here speaking to us like we didnt know *ish*...now had that been me when they got in my tail the first time I would have digressed and thought about my mistake and made sure that my next appearance was one that was a lil less drama free.
All in all you got heart girl!!! Stay that way...but in all things be respectful...
To my brothers in all things you do don't forget
Leadership, Friendship, and Service
and like frat said earlier...n e questions comments or concerns...i got a pm box that's waitin to be flooded with correspondence.
EDITED TO ADD...and that's MY .25 worth!!!
