Yeah. You're freaking weird.
And I have yet to meet a college PNM who says, "I want to join this sorority and this sorority only because of its ideals." No. She makes her choices based on her meetings with the local groups, not because of the sorority's strong national reputation. At the end of the day, an alumnae association is a social group. You just have to click with the ladies, who come in all ages, shapes and sizes. I think it is a hoot that I'm the youngest in my AA by a couple of decades. There are younger members, but I haven't seen them at anything. If I was joining ADPi now and this was the group before me, I probably would be reluctant to join b/c of the age gap. I love the ladies, don't get me wrong, but I'd rather be around a group closer to my age and station in life right now. I love this AA though, because of my past involvement and the programming we're working on. If I was a newbie to the whole sorority world, this wouldn't be the right group for me, regardless of how much I might love violets and lions and Ronald McDonald House Charities.
