Can I get the same experience being in a sorority if I can't live in their house?

Vitashort,

I understand your concern about not being able to fully bond with sisters if you don't get the chance to live in the house. I have lived out of house for most of my membership, and I never felt "left out." There are probably plenty of opportunities to go over to the house and hang out there without having to live there. However, there is something to be said for living in. Most of my sisters who lived in the house said that they felt a special bond to the other girls in the house and that it is an experience they will remember for a lifetime.

In all seriousness though, your attitude is really terrible. You assume that you'll get a bid based on the word of a few girls who were probably under-informed or trying to ease your nerves going into recruitment. Let me tell you, there is nothing more annoying to sorority women than a PNM who comes through recruitment assuming everyone will love her and that she will get a bid. No one likes a cocky bitch. There is a fine line between not worrying yourself to death about it and getting cocky. While I appreciate your effort to not worry about getting a bid, you're trying way too hard. Rather than thinking about these far-reaching issues that aren't even for sure things, you should worry about things you can control such as your conversation skills, attitude, wardrobe for recruitment, etc.

If you ask me, I think you've been nothing but rude to GC posters who have tried to give you the honest truth. Of course you're going to get snarky replies if you act like a know-it-all and a bitch. You are so set in your opinion that you don't want to listen to anyone who isn't blowing sunshine and rainbows up your ass. Sorry I'm not sorry for being harsh. I'm only trying to save you from a disastrous recruitment.
