just curious...

Things I love about my house: everyone is welcome...it's never weird to sit with girls you aren't close with at lunch. Most of the older girls in the house felt like the big sisters I never had but always wanted and were there for me during some really difficult times. I also love Monday night dinner. It's always fun to catch up with everyone and share a meal sort of like you would at home. It makes college life feel more home-y. Also my little- she's actually my other half (like you always hear sorority girls say) and getting to show her the ropes and support her is so rewarding!

Things I'm not super crazy about: there are a few girls who like to fight everything our exec does. The rest of us try to be supportive but sometimes having a group of 5 girls who aren't on board is frustrating.

its kind of cool how regardless of what house you are in, what tier, etc, everyone loves their sorority for the same reasons, and has the same frustrations with their sororities. all houses are the same at their core, and have the same values of sisterhood. when it comes down to it, were all in greek life for the same reason and we stay for the same reason, because we find people we love and cant imagine our lives without #panhelleniclove

Just goes to show there is good and bad in every house.

So obviously I love my house so much and I would do anything to defend it but of course there are things that aren't great 100% of the time. I love my house because it has taught me to really become a strong woman. It has also brought me to my best friends and bridesmaids one day. I know they will always have my back. I became an officer when I was a sophomore and I learned how to be a leader in a fair way, which is a skill I'll have forever. Some things I don't like is there is a group of girls in my house that I fear only joined to wear the letters and party. They never show up to mandatory meetings and post pictures and snaps of them being disgusting to be honest. I don't think taking a video of you taking a pull of vodka is that cool or cute. Unfortunately that group of girls gives my house such a bad rep sometimes and it's hard to show outsiders that we are so much more than that. I still love those girls because they are my sisters and they are always kind to me but I can't help but wonder why they do the things they do. Other than that I love our philanthropy, support we show other houses, and relationships we have as a whole. I wouldn't have wanted to join any other house because I feel at home when I walk through the door.
