I convinced there is absolutely NO GOOD that can come out of Greek live. NONE.
My best girl friend from high school was valedictorian. Such a nice, quiet, and honest girl. I truly miss the way she used to be. After turning 21, she turned into a socialite drunk who's biggest adventure of the day is getting to drink when classes are over. She wants to go to med school, but doesn't care at all about her grades anymore. As long as she is popular and "pretty," she is content.
The biggest change, however, is in her personality. I miss the old friend who I could call at any hour of the day and get advice. Or the old friend who talked about more than the guys she slept with and how tan she looked that day. The girl who swore she would never drink and would NEVER be in a sorority. The Christian who led me to God.
She now starts off conversations by "don't judge me, but..." and then talks about herself for half an hour until I have to get off the phone. She now tells me I am the best person she knows, when just a couple of years ago, I said that about her. She has genuinely let me down and is a terrible example of a Christian. No wonder outsiders think we are hypocrites.
I live near Greek Street and one of the frats had their annual party last night. From 5pm to 11pm (when they were told to bring the party inside due to noise), they were outside blaring music so loudly I couldn't hear Eryn speak at times. What a waste of a productive weekend. You spend all day drinking, all night partying, and all Sunday recovering. Just another way that sin has taken over the lives of college students.
I am so sick and tired of Greek life. There is absolutely no good out of paying for friends, partying in all of your free time and becoming a horrible person.
Now, I actually have a couple of friends that are in Greek life and are nice people. These people also miss parties to write papers and spend time going to activities outside of their sorority or fraternity bubble. It sickens me how anyone would want to be a part of this cult. That's exactly what all of it is: a cult.
I am so disgusted to think of how just a single girl, who used to have a promising future, now has wasted her life. So very sad.
