By now if you have no idea that I rushed and joined a sorority, I don't know what rock you've been living under. But like even then it's not like you were supposed to know. Haha I'm definitely kidding. But anyway, we made it boys. It's time to be a frat sister. Now I know what you're thinking, a frat sister? Yes sir, I'm in a frat. In case you didn't know Pi Beta Phi is the number one frat star in the world. Pi Beta Phi has the honor of being the first national women's fraternity based off the letters and institution of a male's fraternity. Okay but like I'm not here to school you on the history of Pi Pho but I could.
Anyway, onto today's annoying story about "finally finding my home" and knowing that this is the place that I will fit in and belong for rest of my time at MSU. Or better yet, "my future bridesmaids". You've probably heard all these things, and hearing it once more won't hurt.
Here we are sitting and getting onto the final festivities of the steps to finally being a sister. Let me set the mood; about 50 or some girls sitting around in the basement of their sorority house waiting to hear their name called so that they can go upstairs to get their new arrow pin and take the vows the first members of Pi Phi created for them and their future members so that they can be the beautiful women that God created them to be. Girls leave two by two, never to be seen again. I'm kidding, they're just new women now hanging out in the dormer with their new statuses as sisters. Just like the others, I'm sitting here doing homework while I wait for my name to be called and walk up there and take the vows I signed up for.
I start to hear the tap-tap of the heels of the Executive Council's member's coming down to call the next two people, not knowing who is next or who is last. Then I hear it, "Rohitha Rajasekar". This is it, it's my turn. I gather all my things and gently walk upstairs, not wanting to trip over my dress and air (yeah, I'm clumsy like that). I put my stuff down and fix myself as I walk in with my friend waiting to be initiated into the house where it all starts. We get in formation and follow the EC member in and are led in front of the chapter president, where she reads us the promises in which we take upon in our daily lives. And before you know it, she's done reading to us and we are pinned with our new pins and wine and blue ribbon and given a carnation and sent on our way. And just like that we are officially official.
I love being a Pi Phi angel.
