Sorors, SFs, One & All

[naturalrose]

I just have to say this this was an inspirational thread! i am a undergrad senior and i found myself discouraged becauseeventhough my grades are great and i am involved in alot of community service activities ( maybe too much for my own good lol) i felt that i wouldnt be a good candidate just because i am a senior so i didnt attend rush... at first i thought it was a big mistake but i just found out i am leaving for the Peace Corps sooner than i thought so i wouldnt of been able to participate anyway. I am just staying positve and studying hard so i can come out with a great GPA. i cant help but feel lost because when i come back from my service ( 2 years) i feel like i will have to start all over again with showing interest... but like everyone said i just have to stay focused and in due time God will show me my path!!

I joined Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated as an undergrad December 3, 2006 as a senior. Several people were concerned about attending rush as a senior, as I was. But had I not attended, I would have never know if I would be selected. Like everyone has said a million times before, if it is meant to be...it will be. I was on pins and needles waiting on my letter. I am not the best student in the world, so that means that I didn't have a 3.7 (far from it), but my service was stellar...that does not mean one can go to rush with a 1.0. My determination could have been a deciding factor in wether or not I got in. I love working in the community, because someone worked for us.

So, congrats to Sorors and fellow greeks!

Good luck to all of you sisterfriends!
Everything has a season!

Just know that your org. of interest isn't going anywhere. And you will obviously bring a lot to it when the time is right.
