Describing March Madness Through GIFs, As Someone Who Doesn't Understand March Madness

Because I'm clueless, but mildly funny.

March brings lots of things: Spring Break, Women's History Month, and, currently, March Madness. As someone who doesn't really have a clue what's going on in the world of college basketball, here's my take on the "madness."

1. When someone asks you if you saw the game(s)

"No... sorry... how was it?"

2. "Villanova"

"Villa-what now?"

3. When someone asks who you think will make it to the Final Four

Not only do I not fully understand basketball as a sport, I have no idea who all the teams are, their rankings, or their stats. I am clueless.

4. When you meet someone else who also has no clue what's going on

We may not have the slightest idea about college basketball, but at least we have each other.

5. "Loyola"

Is that even a school? Did they say "Toyota"? What's going on?

6. When you get peer pressured into making a bracket

I'm just lucky there aren't that many ways to screw it up. I'm not expecting any wins.

7. But then people expect you to remember all the teams you picked

I struggle remembering things I need. There's no way I'm remembering if I chose Nevada over Texas.

8. When people seem a little *too* into it

I'm just going to keep nodding along and hoping you calm down eventually.

9. "St. Bonaventure"

At this point, I guess I'll just accept that I don't know any colleges in the United States.

10. When your friend is proud of their bracket

Just because I have no clue what's going on doesn't mean I can't be supportive!

11. When you're just kind of along for the ride, and you're okay with that

March doesn't last forever, and neither does March Madness.

Eventually, a new pop culture phenomenon will come around that I know equally little about!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
