Pizza Crust & Sorority Rush: Why They Are the Same Thing

Deciding what sorority to rush is exactly like ordering a pizza after midnight.

Pizza Crust & Sorority Rush: Why They Are the Same Thing

At first you're lost, there's just so many toppings and sizes to chose from! It is normal to feel overwhelmed or nervous about deciphering what exact pizza you want to order.

You finally settle on the pizza that you can’t help but still crave: the original, the heartbreaker, you cannot stop thinking about it. Pepperoni, perhaps. After making what seems to be the hardest decision in your life, you then question yourself. Should I really commit to this pizza? Am I going to regret this? Do I want garlic sticks instead? Am I ready to devote my body and soul to these 1500 calories? The answer is yes.

Ordering that pizza is the best decision you will make all year. Ordering that pizza might cost you some pocket change, but damn is it worth the satisfaction you will gain from it. You excitingly call in ready to commit. Best-case scenario, THEY ANSWER. They respond with a, "we are so happy to serve you”. Immediately, you realize how lucky you are to have found a committed pizzeria that will still help you out at 2:57 a.m. 

Maybe they don’t answer. Maybe they are closed. Inevitably, you feel a little sadness, possibly a single slow falling tear running down your cheek. Until you realize that the pizzeria that’s actually closer to your dorm is still open. You call, body slightly shaking, mind racing; they answer. You nearly scream and cry all at once because you realize just how important this pizza is to you. You request your order, and patiently wait for them to confirm. They reply claiming you will receive a call soon. You wait, and wait, counting the seconds, lying on the floor staring at your dated ceiling panels. Genuine happiness fills your heart when the deliveryman calls to inform you that your pizza has arrived, you made it sis. 

You run downstairs (tears might flow, that’s ok) and you stand there next to a complete stranger, telling them you love them and you actually might mean it. Turns out, that pizza that you ordered, the pizza you were nervous and shaky about ordering, ends up being the perfect pizza for you. The most fantastic, cheesy, wipe-your-hands-on-your-boxers-and-not-care kind of good. You realize that taking that leap of faith and ordering that forsaken pie was the greatest thing you have done in your 19 yeas of existence. So order that damn pizza, and enjoy every last bite.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
