Recruitment Emotions As Told By Grey's Anatomy

Ahhh, it's back to school for the sorority girls on each campus. Even though classes aren't officially beginning yet (praises), you know why you're here. A week full of countless hours of conversing, singing, doorstacks, bumping, etc. all preparing each organization for the Hunger Games of Greek Life AKA Formal Recruitment. There are many emotions to recruitment. Everyone is excited to get new members, but it's a lot harder to enjoy preparing for them when you're lacking sleep, food, and a social life outside of your 150 sisters. Here's a few of the MANY emotions we all feel at some point during this next week or so, as told by our favorite Grey's Anatomy characters:

When you're told to make conversations about things relatable to PNMs:


When your Recruitment Chair changes something last minute:


When you get told to smile after singing for five hours:


When you have a rush crush by day 1:



When you're told you're on all day shift after thinking you were only afternoon shift:



When your mom calls to check on you halfway through the week:



When your rush crush comes back for day 2:



When you're told to tell the PNMS your story:


When you can't keep a conversation going for longer than 5 minutes during practices:


When that one bossy girl has interrupted one too many times:


When you have zero prospects for a little but all your friends have at least one:


When you're told you weren't smiling enough in that last party:


When recruitment is finally over and you need to go in hiding for a while:


When you have to take 50 different pictures each with different poses on Bid Day:


When you go to the Bid Day party most excited about the food:

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
