Being the person in charge of rituals for your chapter is very rewarding and very stressful. These two feelings come together to make a medley of a very overwhelmed college student. This is why being a guard/ritual chair/warden is the best thing in the world, but also one of the most frustrating.

It's frustrating when people don't think your job is really that important and think that anyone could do it:

You try to tell your sisters that they're not following the exact rules and deal with the after-sass.

Dealing with sisters when they want to give you attitude about following those rules:

When your adviser asks you if you're ready for initiation:

The night before you're hanging out with your friends like:

Right before rituals you talk yourself up like:

And then your executive council tells you that they're ready too:

Then all of your advisers walk into the room and afterward, you're thinking:

And you think that they're going to criticize you on something and start to think:

But then they tell you actually did a great job and you're all like:

But you're boyfriend is still wondering where you've been all week:

It's hard to find the right words to explain to non-Greeks what you do. They don't get it.

And at the end of everything, you just love your sisters and are so happy.

So shout out to you for being the Guard/Ritual/Warden for your chapter! You deserve a nap.
