You know you're a proud greek when....

[Buttonz]

When you can sit with another Greek and list every NPC, there colors, mascot etc. and what house you would be in if you choose only by colors, by badge, etc. because you have nothing better to do while coming back from Something Greek.

When you are at an aquarium and in the aviary section, you see an owl and freak out and take tons of pictures of the bird and you next to the bird while your other friends look at you strangely.

When you are low on money but still send the monthly check to hq!

You join the closest alumnae chapter, even though it's in the next state!

When you put your frat brothers above your wife and family and hang out with them at the frat house on a your designated "family day," only to come home and find your "stuff" on the porch and your wife giving you an ultimatim: if you love your fraternity brothers so much, you need to go live with them.

Or you when you make your house into a de facto fraternity house and your wife gets fed up and you get your "walking papers."

These are two real cases from brothers I have known.

Wolfman, that's pretty funny!

Oh my "sorority nerd" moment for the day..

I realized that the house facing me has sailboats on the shutters...and I thought, "hmm, some nice Tri Sigma should move in there!".

and I saw the house that my parents want to buy and thought.."It's blue and white, those are the tau delta colors...oh! and I can redecorate my room in a Tau Delta Theme!!!"

[recentASAalum]

when everyone you work with knows what sorority you are in because you have pens with letters... then they all return the pens when I lose them... then to top it off there was a gentlemen wearing my letters one night in the restaurant and I had at least half the staff ask me if I'd noticed...

That reminded me...
I saw a girl wearing a shirt with anchors on it the other day and I wondered if she was a DG...haha, I'm a dork Or I saw a cute beach bag at Target with an Anchor theme and I wanted to get it for my former RA, who is a DG.

I can agree to most of these things.
I'm making my mom let me paint three sigmas on my wall, much to my dad's dismay.

also, i always have my sigma pens with me at work. i dropped one off for a guest to sign her credit card receipt with AND SHE STOLE IT!!! Seriously, who steals a sigma pen when they aren't a sigma. What a witch. In three months being a server, that was the first stolen pen i had.

Shouldn't you be productive with your time instead of whining about a stupid pen?

World hunger & AIDS, not pens.

I LOVE that house! That's so awesome--I'm really, really anti-color-code/neighborhood association, and if I wasn't a renter, I'd probably try something crazy like that. Maybe a mural of the mascots because we're just green and white...or maybe a happy shade of flourescent green, ha ha ha.

Seriously, the world hunger and AIDS bit needs to go to that house's neighbors. If you're proud of your frat, why not show it?

...when you know people who have a tattoo of their pledge pin/badge over their heart
...when even though you aren't a fan of roses, you find yourself in love with yellow ones
...when you spend hours trying to design a tattoo of an anchor that doesn't make you look like a sailor
...when you have a liscence plate frame with your letters, a decal with your letters, and a cling with your GLO written out on your car, all at the same time
...go you to work one day wearing a letter t-shirt, a letter windbreaker, and carrying a letter sweatshirt (in case it gets cold) and your letter bag
...your badge for work is on a lanyard with your letters on it in your colors
...you decide that mother nature MUST wish she was in your sorority (i mean, really, GREEN grass, leaves, bushes, etc. YELLOW sun...)
...your parents ask you if you actually own any non sorority related clothes anymore
...your mom starts carrying "mom" keychains and chatting up other sisters when she meets them even though not only is she not in a GLO, she didn't even go to college
...even though yellow makes you look like you have the plague, you wear it anyway because it's one of your colors

i think i'll stop now

....when you've been out of college 4 years and you still sport letters around town, and even to the office on weekends;-)
....when your in grad school and still used pens and pencils with letters on them.

Ditto on the anchor Tattoo thing. If you figure it out let me know!!
