I would like to think of myself as a cool person. I'm nice, funny, and caring. I don't judge anyone (at least not harshly) and I always have an open mind. I give pretty good advice if I do say so myself and everyone knows that they can come to me with anything. If they don't, well now they do. You can be a stranger or a childhood friend and I will still be here to listen and support you.
I have no stinking clue as to why it's hard for me to make friends up here in college but it truely is difficult. I don't know where to turn. Now don't think it's ALL my fault and that I'm just to shy to put myself out there, which is somewhat true. But I really have given it the ol' college try and went to the events around campus.
Going Greek-
Yeah, Greek life. My silly little dream. I've always wanted to be in a sorority! At my high school there was a sorority called SANS. I rushed and put my all into getting in. Let me tell you, it was definitely an awkward experience for me. Let us reminisce...
The end of junior year I rush for this SANS sorority in hopes of being accepted and expanding my small circle of close friends. I go to the meeting where all of us "rushers" are placed in a very small room and are told to be silent or we will automatically be out. We fill out a paper of basic info and wait. One by one we leave the room. When it was my turn, I was lead to the basement. The girl who guided me told me that when I am called to enter I must pretend I'm on fire! Ummm.. OK? So being me I thought I should go all out for this little show and decided to roll down the stairs screaming at the top of my lungs "HELP ME TOM CRUISE!!!"
If you ask me I personally think I knocked it out the park they all laughed with tears in their eyes. Afterward I realize that i'm being stared down by every member as they all sit in front on me. They asked questions which made me nervous and told me to sing and dance as I exited. Back at home I was to wait the next day for them to come to my house and dump all sorts of crap on me. Chocolate syrup, ketchup, mayo, pickle juice and god knows what else. So anyway I wait... and wait... and WAIT! No one came. Beaking my heart from thinking that I wasn't funny enough and that they didn't like me.
Later seeing who did make it told me that it was a popularity thing. I guess I understood...
But in college where greek life is like the cornerstone of a college experience I was hoping that my results would be better. I wanted a "friend" of mine to rush with me but "Sororities are not my thing, I don't like them," she said. Okay... whatever I'll rush alone. And that's just what I did. I went around to all 7 houses and spoke to all the girls and got to know them a bit. They were'nt at all what I thought they were. Seeing as to how I was enjoying my expereience, I was REALLY hoping to get in. I PRAYED!!! And later that week I recieved a call saying I didn't get in, but I could try in the spring. And that's what I plan to do. By golly gosh I'm going to get in!
This post is getting a bit lengthy, part 2 coming soon!
Love,

P.S. If this info about SANS is supposed to stay secret, oh well the cat's out of the bag!
