Talk Me Down!

[Teazer_9009]

This has a little bit of a story behind it, but here we go. I'm a sophomore. I started rush last fall, but dropped out before going to the floors. I had a family get together that my mother and aunt insisted that I attend and I had joined a couple of clubs already including a club sport, and they were both factors in the fact that I dropped out. I also wasn't sure that I wanted to be in a sorority. A couple of people I worked with had been telling horror stories, including one girl who had to completely re-do her schedule for some reason. Some other people I had talked to said that it completely took over your life and you didn't do anything that wasn't for the sorority (no other clubs, no friends that weren't Greek, etc.). I don't know if any of these people had any experience with this or not, but they were pretty much telling me I shouldn't do it. So, I dropped out. Fast forward a semester and I dropped out of the club team - they wanted more commitment than I was willing and able to give, and I kept getting sick from our practice space.

It’s a year later and I really think I made a mistake dropping out when I did. I know girls from highs school who rushed at their schools and love it. I want to try again. But I'm a little scared. Will the fact that I dropped out last fall make a difference? And then there's the other club I'm in. It’s a performance based club (Musical Theater!) with weekly meetings and extra rehearsals during tech/show week and sometimes trips to see shows downtown and stuff (big city and all ). Will that hurt my chances?

I'm probably overreacting to everything (I have a tendency to do that), but a little help maybe?
