Recommended: My first experience in a college

If I were to write a book in the next thirty years and someone happened to flip to page 135 they would find that I would still be talking about my college life since that part of my life would have the most events and the most adventurous times of my life.The page would be discussing the day I proudly joined a sorority and all the emotions I went through that day. The next paragraph would be a sample of what they would find. Today is the day the actual revealing of me being a proud member of a sorority. Keeping my whereabouts and actions a secret has been one of the hardest task I have ever attempted to complete. I almost got caught by my roommate who is actually my best friend!

  • Summary Of Pledged: The Secret Life Of Sororities

    363 Words  | 1 Pages

    While reading Pledged: The Secret Life of Sororities, I learned more about the inner workings of Greek Life. I learned that the odds of me finding a sorority are so slim due to my independent and different personality. While I am not good at sticking up for myself, something this book has made me feel is crucial to blend in and conform to an ideal to fit into a sorority, I am too opinionated. There are not many sororities (at least shown in Pledged) that welcome girls who are different, preferring to stay similar. For example, each pledge class would soon like identical within a few months of pledging. Another thing I learned about is the careful planning and manipulation that occurs throughout sororities,

    Day in and day out we hear about high school and college students wanting to pursue a sorority and/or a fraternity based on the stereotypes these organizations uphold, well I chose to differ. I told myself if I ever decided to become a member of a sorority it would be based solely on their ethical standards, history, and values they are founded upon. Alpha Kappa Alpha, Incorporated consists of ladies of distinction and exemplary character who excel in scholarship, leadership, and service, which are qualities I have chosen to uphold. From my perspective, I encourage myself to maintain a respectable appearance and reputation which doing so inspires me to embrace my self-concept; which helps me confidently excel academically and professionally as a “lady of distinction” and “exemplary character.” Most importantly, I continuously remain involved in community service, being involved allows me the opportunity to learn and understand the lives and circumstances of others by opening my mind, heart, and soul. Overall these qualities strengthen my passion to be a member of the prestigious Alp...

    When I think of this quote it remind me of all the mentors I have had in my life to teach me about certain situations teenage girls encounter while in high school and how to prevent and deal with it. In high school I was part of the Delta G.E.M.S mentorship program presented by the Seattle Alumni chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated. In the program, these educated black women educated us on how to conduct ourselves as young ladies when out in public, in school, or in a professional setting such as an interview or conference. We also learned how to manage our time, and prepare for college, what to expect, and how to be successful throughout college. Being this program really helped me prepare for the real world, but I felt that I owed it to someone who is less fortunate then me, and did not have the opportunity to gain the knowledge that I had.

    My freshman year of high school everything was so new to me. I was at a new school, with new people, in a new environment. I wasn’t prepared for high school in even the slightest bit. My school did not do a good job at preparing me for the real world. What they don’t tell you when you finish eighth grade, is that you’re going to have to read a book over the summer. So, here I was first day of freshman year and the teacher goes, “Alright class time to take out your summer reading books. We are going to do a lot with them over the next few weeks so make sure you bring them every class!” My heart dropped. Summer reading assignment? I quickly turned to my left and ask the person sitting next to me if they had any idea what the teacher was talking about. With an attitude, like I was distracting her, she quickly told me we were supposed to pick a fiction book to read at the beginning of the summer. I thought my life was over. As soon as I got home from school that day I researched for easy fiction books to read for a ninth grader. “Percy Jackson: The

    It was my first week of my freshman year in college. Normally, you want to survive the first week by going to school events and meeting new people. Being the first Saturday night of the school year my new friend and I decided to go to a party in another dorm on campus. Both of us didn’t know what to expect at a college party, so we dressed up and tried to look our best. As I put my black mascara on I knew that this would be a fun night. My friend Jessica knew one of the guys that would be at this gathering because he lived in the same town that she was from. Finally, we leave our dorms and head out to our first college party. We arrived at the party and started to play cards. As the night progressed, poker was getting a little boring and staying in that dorm room wasn’t too much fun either. Abruptly, one of the guys said we should go to a freshman dorm. Everyone grabbed their belongings and headed to central campus. As we walked to central campus many of the boys were whispering about how they were going to cause a ruckus. No one was a resident of this hall, so we had to ask someone who was outside to let us in.

Some of the participants write their autobiography as a legacy for their families. The writers have expressed concern and delight about what their children and grandchildren will think when they read stories they didn’t know about their family. Garth Dawson and his wife Bonnie have attended three Autobiography Workshops at different locations.
