As a dance major I chose to focus on dance and not rush, as my parents have provided me with expensive training for this career choice since I was 5. The struggle however is that every time I go into a store that sells Lilly I realize just how much I would have loved to be involved with greek life. Being a dance major requires a lot of time and devotion, so I didn't want to risk my profession by being distracted with sorority obligations.
Being Non-Offiliated is harsh. My entire life I have been a part of (and/or lead) clubs, honor societies, and organizations. Sister-hood is something that I know I would have loved to be a part of. Also, I cant deny that cute shirts, school spirit opportunities, crafts, and parties are also a turn on to greek life. As a prepster I find that this culture usually regards sorority life as a tradition and a no-brainer. However in my special dance major circumstance I realize that having one foot in and one foot out of an organization is not something that I would want to be a part of. I love to be involved, and not being able to commit my full time and energy towards something would be devastating. ASlo,,, can we talk about expense. Im paying my way through college and I have barely enough to buy groceriers, how would I ever pay for dues? I guess all-in-all I would have made it work. however, I have to accept that my decision has lead me to where I am today. It has given me the opportunities and paths that have changed my dancing for the better. And also my dance major family at GMU is something I could never replace. College is what you make of it, so you better live it to the fullest or you'll look back and realize that you let an opportunity slip through your fingers!
