Sorority formal season is just around the corner and there is more on your mind this semester than what dress you're going to wear. Let's face it, finding a formal date is a more stressful ordeal than passing your organic chemistry final. And it's obviously much more important.
1. Two weeks? How am I supposed to find a suitable formal date in just two weeks? That's just ridiculous.
2. The moment you realize you only have three formal events left and you must make them all count. You're a strong and beautiful woman and you will find a date, dammit.
3. OK, so six other chapters have formal on the same night. There are 200 girls in each house, and let’s say 40 girls in each house have boyfriends (must be nice). That leaves like one guy for every three girls. I must find a date!
4. Determined to find a date, you go out to the bar. Three vodka doubles later you see a hot guy, with his girlfriend, and you decide you want to ask him to formal. Luckily, you have friends willing to physically remove you from the situation.
5. You regain your composure and are chatting with a hottie at the end of the bar. He seems totally into you, so you muster up the courage to ask him to formal and you actually think he’s going to say yes.
6. He says no.
7. On the way home, you try to rationalize what happened. Trying to overcome the rejection, you remember there is a cute guy in your calculus class. You'll ask him.
8. He already has a date. Thank you cute calculus guy! You were my last hope for a date!
9. You tell your friends, through sobs and spoonfuls of Ben & Jerry's, you’ve given up on finding a date. But you're a strong, independent woman and you don't need a man. Yeah, right!
10. Your sorority sister so graciously offers to set you up with her boyfriend’s fraternity brother and begrudgingly, you agree.
11. You're definitely feeling yourself these days. You have a dress, you have a semi-hot date and you’re ready to tare up the dance floor.
12. The day has arrived and you’re nervous, to say the least. You're date hasn't gotten to the pre-game yet so you're calming your nerves with advice from your friends and shots of tequila.
13. You see him walk in and he’s definitely not as hot as you thought he was.
14. You’ve met your date and you’ve had a few too many shots (see above). You walk, no, you strut, into the formal venue feeling like straight fire.
15. You got all ready for this? I know, I can't believe it either. You’ve gotten kicked out of formal for being a little too, well, too much like yourself, and you're trying to look sober as the standards chair lectures you.
16. Better luck next year!
