nphc and anxiety

[UGAalum94]

Another silly/ignorant question from an NPCer, in the AKA photos/video are they wearing sunglasses partly because their eyes are closed?

I know that may sound stupid, but they were moving like they were being guided solely by the girl in front of them, and they had their heads down too. Or is it just for style and uniformity maybe?

I hope things work out for the OP. I can see how the event would be stressful in a lot of ways: attention, crowds, etc. But maybe with the strength of the group she can overcome it, especially if she is strong in the other areas of service.

Random AKA thought: pink and green are powerfully associated with AKA, even by random white people. I have kind of a loud pink and green outfit (it's really not pretty enough for AKA), and I wore it to work one day, and another middle aged white woman (non-NPHC or NPC, in her case) remarked to me that those were AKA colors. I knew it already, but it was funny to me that she mentioned it to me. Not Delta Zeta or whatever, Alpha Kappa Alpha= pink and green.
