You're Right, Sorority Life is Terrible

It's absolutely terrible having a large group of girls who care about your wellbeing!

You're Right, Sorority Life is Terrible
Karlee Wright

What everyone says is SOOOOOO correct. Sorority life is just downright awful.

It's absolutely terrible having a large group of girls who care about your wellbeing. They're always texting you to make sure you're doing okay or asking you to have lunch if you've had a bad day. Sisters are just constantly texting asking to hang out and see you.

It's horrid having a strong connection with your pledge class. You connect so well with so many girls, you're just bombarded with multiple friendships. It's a huge burden really. Multiple friends are just crazy to keep up, especially when they're ones who care about you.

Don't even get me started on philanthropy. Helping raise money to support a worthy cause is exhausting. My sorority—Gamma Phi Beta—dedicates our philanthropic efforts to Girls On the Run. It's just cruel that we have to spend our time supporting little girls who look up to us, and we get to become strong influences in their lives. Having little girls who tell us they appreciate us is just absurd. Who would want to spend their time with such sweet, carefree, innocent little souls?

The absolute worst part is having friends for life. You will have to invite sisters to your wedding, to help with your baby shower, to be there through every hard time. It's going to be a constant bother having such a strong support system who will love you no matter what. SUCH a burden, ugh.

Okay, so obviously this is all a sarcastic piece. I absolutely adore my sisters more than anything. I hate that sorority life has such a negative connotation. It's the best thing to ever happen to me. This piece just somewhat explains the wonderful aspects of it. I love sorority life and I will support it until the day I die.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
