My first rush on the other side was part of one of my finest "Phi Mu moments."
We had alphabet blocks spelling out PHI MU, and five sisters gave a speech about Phi Mu -- each sister had a letter that corresponded with what they were supposed to talk about. For example, the girl with I was supposed to talk about how she'd been Inspired to join the group, the girl with U talked about the Unity and sisterhood she'd seen while she'd been a sister, etc.
I had P, so I made the first speech about how Proud I was to be a Phi Mu.
My speech started off with how I'd thought being in a sorority was about boys and drinking and screwing each other over. That I hated sorority girls and couldn't deal with what they stood for and never thought I'd end up in a sorority. Then I talked about what Phi Mu had come to mean to me... the sisterhood, the selflessness I'd seen in the girls, the interest they took in making sure each girl was getting every chance she could to be the best woman she could be.
Then I ended up by saying, I'm glad I'm not a sorority girl. I'm a Phi Mu.
