Considering Living In Your Sorority House? You Should! Here's Why!
Rachel Klumpp

Everyone thinks that living in a sorority house is exactly house tv portrays it to be. A party house, a strict house with a bunch of rules or just girls trying to buy their friends, but honestly it makes school a thousand times better. Need a reason to live in the house or to convince your parents? Check out these 9!

You get the on campus experience without having to live in a dorm

You get the on campus perks like having good parking spots and being close to all of your classes without having to be a freshman again in the terrible dorms

You don't have to pay to do your laundry

Unlike living in the dorms and some apartment complex's you don't have to pay to wash and dry each load which saves you so much money

The food is bomb

Those gourmet meals were so far away last year when you were on the other side of the campus, but now they're just 10 steps away downstairs. It's so amazing to be able to just wake up go downstairs in your pjs and get a cup of coffee and an omelet.

It's close to the stadium

You don't have to worry about the long walks or getting parking on game day just walk two seconds and your where all the fun happens.

It's actually cheaper

It's cheaper than some apartments and for me was cheaper than living in a dorm freshman year.

If you don't know anyone here you meet people!

If you don't know many of your sorority sisters living in the house gives you the opportunity to make more friends. They're fun events that the people in the house get to do and have fun together. You get ready before events together and just sitting in your hallway having amazing conversations.

It makes rush a tiny bit better

During breaks during rush are amazing when you live in the house because you can go upstairs and take a quick nap or catch up on bachelor in paradise with your friends and if you forget something its right upstairs which is great.

You get your mom away from home

House moms are the best. They are there for you whenever you need then and help you with anything.

Your best friends and sisters are your roommates and neighbors 

You get to see your best friends ever day when you step out of your room. You get to have silly arguments on whether or not you should put ketchup on eggs and when you need something that you don't have you just knock on their doors and they are there for you in a second.

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.
