9 Things That Happen When You Join a Sorority
Kaleigh Shupp

From bid day to big/little week to initiation, pledging a sorority is all sorts of fun, but there are definitely things that happen to everyone when they join whatever sorority they choose.

1. You gain a lot of new Insta followers.

Hello #instafamous!

2. Your calendar is suddenly full.

Whether it’s because of chapter or different events, your calendar is basically never empty

3. You get a lot of stuff during Big/Little Week

Okay, I’m not gonna lie, more than half the stuff I got during big/little week is under my bed waiting to be used next year but it was still fun getting to clean up confetti everyday for a week! (thanks big!!!)

4. People in your sorority start to say hi to you when you go to classes.

It’s kinda awful for me because I have walking bitch face, so if you say hi to me and I just kinda look over it’s not because I don’t like you it’s just my face.

5. Your closet is filled with your sorority’s ~trendy~ clothes.

Honestly, some of it I’ll never wear again but I keep it there, just in case

6. You’re always ‘throwing what you know’ in Instas with your sistas.

I’m totally guilty of this.

7. You learn all the ~secrets~ that come with membership.

To anyone else, it might seem a little scary, but to your sisters, it’s totally normal.

8. You learn all about your fam tree, but you don’t understand it, like at all.

“Okay, so if we’re cousins does that mean our ggbig had twins?”

9. You find your buddies for life.

(I hope my new friends realize that they’re stuck with me!!!)

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
