for.life

Today I joined a sorority. My roommate all day has been saying how she "can't believe this day is finally here." I agree. She says that because joining a sorority is something she has dreamed about for a long time. I agree because I never thought I would be in one. As of this last year, I came to the realization that I tend to get along better with guys, I'm not a super girly girl, and I hate pointless rules. I was pretty sure I was destined to be anything but a sorority girl. I signed up for rush simply to meet more people and make more friends with no intention of actually pledging anywhere. But the girls at the Delta Zeta house made me feel at home and I realized I wanted to be one of them.
This shot was taken today which was Bid Day. It was quite the sight and quite the experience, just as this whole recruitment week has been. But now it's over and greek life has begun. It ain't four years, it's for life, baby.
