I love my sorority through and through, but I too, often wonder what would have happened if I had gone to another school. There are quite a few NPC sororities that I would have loved to have been a part of (solely based on research and knowing members of them), but my ala mater only had 2 and only one was NPC. I often find myself seeing pictures of other chapters, whether it be of my sorority or another, and wishing I was a part of that or had what they have.
I did not have a "normal" greek or college experience because of the school I went to, but I tried to make the most of it. Looking back, I could have tried harder and that is something I have to come to terms with; shouldn't have worried so much about sleeping the night before a test instead of making memories with my sisters! lol
I often find myself sad, and down&out about not having the experience I wanted. But, it had nothing to do with the sorority itself. It was just the atmosphere and how things are and are not done at my school.
I now try to put a lot of energy and time in to help the current active sisters of my chapter with anything they need. Throwing out ideas, buying little gifts, etc. It is what you make of it, even as an alumna. So, I want to feel involved and I'll admit, at times I want to feel like I am still a part of it (at the collegiate level).
Do I regret my choice? No. It may not have been the "ideal" situation with a bunch of chapters to essentially chose from, but I loved the women in the chapter when I joined and I loved what Alpha Gamma Delta stood for. I still do and I forever will. <3
