yeah, looking back i should have kept my feelings about amanda to myself.
actually, when i first entered the pledge process i didn't want to live in the house. i was totally camera shy and it made me really nervous. one of the sisters convinced me to give it a try. and i was asked repeatedly to consider living in the house because i am Jewish and few of the others were. also, this is going to come off conceded, but i don't mean it that way, i am involved in lots of things on campus, including a fabulous peer counseling program, i have good grades, a career plan, and two jobs. so i thought, silly me, that maybe mtv would portray those things along with all the madness. i thought that seeing all the options there are for college women would be wonderful for younger girls, in essence, a contrast to britney's image. however, that didn't quite go as planned.
i am not stupid, i realized mtv would focus on the drinking, catfights, and boys. but i did think that other elements would potentially be included.
i didn't know other greeks had been approached. i don't know if sigma knew or not. but mtv made an attractive offer, i am amazed that someone didn't pick it up sooner. they have found a season two house, so i think this is just the beginning. i hope the new cast members have learned from our mistakes!
