Yes or No?

Ok guys, I have to make a quick decision and I need your help. I have to decide if I am going back to rush by the 4th of jan. I have been vasilating between rushing and not for the entire semester.

My sister was in a sorority in college, and literally, since I was 12 I was convinced I was going to join one until I set foot on campus for welcome week. I attend a different university ( a much bigger one too) than my sister. At her school, it was basically, join a house or become a commuter student, as the school was very close to a city and there were few appartments.

Here, eventhough abot 20% of students are greek, the non-greeks seem to despise them and whenver i mention that I might rush, people roll their eyes and try to concince me not to!

There are some things that might bother me about being greek, ie taking up alot of time, and alot of rules I wouldn't have to deal with otherwise.I will admit though I am not some crazy partier, I don't really like the idea of me being told when i am a senior and 22 years old I can't keep a beer in my fridge.

also, most houses don't let their seniors live out, and if I go abroad my junior year, I have been warned that many times sutdents just can't stand being in a house after comming back.

The thing I am dreading most is losing the friends I already have and since none of them are rushing, they won't be able to do the things that I will and I think they will resent me.

I am also afraid if I don't join, I will miss out on college and not have any friends.

If anyone has any suggestions or can make up my mind (lol) for me please do!

ps. would it be better to rush, pledge and then drop out if I don't like it? and what if after a year I really don't like sorority life and I end up de activating? will everyone in the house stop talking to me and will I be left with no friends?
