Coming into my freshmen year, I made the choice not to rush. I didn't think sororities were a bad thing; I just figured there were other and better financial ways for me to meet new people.

But after seeing the bid day videos on Snapchat, social pictures on Instagram, and Greek letters on room doors, I started to almost feel left out. Like I was the only one missing out on part of the college cultural experience. I almost began to regret not joining a sorority. But as the semester went on, I made some new friends and found my group of people.

So for those of you who are in the same position, I was in, YOU WILL BE OKAY. It seems like everyone is a part of Greek life your first year, but that's because everyone is excited about being a part of something new. As people get older, most people start spending more of their time focusing on their major.

And if you're worried about making friends, join a club where you can meet new people. I made most of my friends through a campus organization, where we do community service and have social events.

And if you still feel like you're missing out, you can rush in the spring or your sophomore year.

Just know that there are other people who are in the same boat as you, who are looking to meet new people as well. Greek life is a part of college culture, but so is learning new things, trying new things, and meeting new people.

So instead of sitting on social media and looking at all the Greek life pictures people post, go to the involvement fair and start posting some fun moments of your own.
