If I could do it all over again...

If I could do it again yea

I'd get sunburned on a new tattoo, lose my favorite jeans and my tennis shoes
Get kicked out of my hotel room and sleep in the truck for a night or two
Blow all my money, have to call my dad and work two months to pay him back
Take bong hits and laugh like hell, flick the police off and get hauled to jail
If I could do it again I'd do it the same, not one regret I wouldn't change a thing

Please pardon the lane swerve... honest question from a member of a NPC chapter. If the OP is initiated, then she is already a member- can she not seek affiliation with the chapter at her new institution? I am confused as to why she seems to want to be treated as a nonmember...

Wow, this thread seems to be lane-swerve central, but here I go again.

Based on what the OP said, it appears that she is in fact able to take that route but does not wish to for the reasons she detailed above. In my opinion, this is really more of a personal issue than anything.

It basically comes down to: in terms of actual membership, OP is fine but just doesn't feel like she deserves to not redo the new member process because she didn't use it to her fullest the first time around.

To be completely honest, I think this behavior is somewhat silly, but then again, since I'm not in her BGLO (in fact, not even in a BGLO), I wouldn't know what they expect out of their membership. I'd imagine the right thing to do is to just accept the circumstances as-is but start becoming more active.
