9 Questions Sorority Girls Are Tired of Hearing
Read Unwritten

There are plenty of questions sorority girls are tired of being asked and here are a few of them.

1. So, you pay for your friends now...?

No, but if I did I should be paying a hell of a lot more. My dues go to the chapter. They fund events and fuel the chapter to support the organization at a national level.

2. You’re in a sorority, you don’t look like a sorority girl?

Thanks? One of the things I love most about being in a sorority that I can be involved in many other different parts of campus and not be titled as a stereotypical "Sorority Girl."

3. Do you love ALL your sisters?

No. Surprising I know!! But just like you’re family, we don’t have to love each other all the time but we have to respect one another.

4. What was the hazing like?

I wouldn’t know. No seriously, Greek life is starting to make stricter guidelines on hazing. My sorority has strict no hazing rules and instead educated and taught us values and traditions through bonding, strengthened our chapter.

4. Do you go out every night of the week?

God no. We have sisters taking the MCAT's and LSAT's. Sisters working full time as well as being full time students. We have sisters on the Dean’s list. And even a sister in the army. Most weekends you can find sisters studying in the library later than any party goer.

5. Why are you so obsessed with your little?

Your little is perfect. She just is. It’s not something required by the sorority. But after taking someone under your wing and caring for them as a big sister they become your world and the obsession takes over. It sounds creepy but it’s not as psycho as we sometimes make it out to be.

6. Why do you have to have a certain GPA?

Standards are put in place to make sure that potential new members and current sisters uphold a minimum GPA. Sororities are not all about partying... WOW!?

7. What’s your “Philanthropy?"

People always ask what my “Philanthropy” is, like it’s some made up unicorn we hide behind to look like good human beings. In reality it is the basis of what sororities are founded on. We have mandatory community service events as well as 10+ hours of community service to complete on our own. Sororities teach sisters how to give back and how to have a little fun doing it as well.

9. Do you only date frat guys

Some do just because we party a lot with frat guys. But usually most of us date guys who are not affiliated with Greek life. Some of us don’t even date guys.

So there you have it. Get used to these questions newly initiated sisters and even current sisters. People never get tired of asking these questions. Hopefully one day we can ride the stereotype that sorority girls are just a bunch of drunken party girls.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
