Why Sorority Girls Actually Go To Music Festivals

Why Sorority Girls Actually Go To Music Festivals

The Bonnaroo line-up was posted, and within minutes, every sorority Facebook page was filled with posts, making an attempt to organize the perfect Roo crew (ahem, guilty). No matter which music festival it was that got your favorite pair of Norts in a bunch, I’m sure similar things crossed your mind.

A $300 ticket that promises days of all of your favorite bands, getting to dance around with your favorite hula hoop, and of course, a chance to really get in touch with nature while enjoying the company of all your fellow earth and music-loving friends.  I’m pretty sure the following may have crossed the minds of every sorority girl before the thought of “Who is actually playing?” did.1.

High-Waisted, Shorts, Crop Tops, and Flower Headbands.

Let us all take a moment to bow our heads and thank The Lord for the comeback of the high-waisted shorts. They just caught back on so you’re definitely “trendy” if you own a pair. Oh, and if you bought them from Goodwill and fringed them up on your own, you should go ahead and buy the VIP package to Roo because you are as hip as it gets.  

2.Instagram

Yes. Another social media outlet that paves the way for how girls advertise their seemingly fun and adventurous lives when in reality, the 30 minutes they spent editing a picture was while they were switching tabs between their Pinterest boards (probably the “Summer” board or “Places I want to travel to” if I’m being specific) and season 5 of Gossip Girl on Netflix. Whatever the case may be, there is nothing more like-worthy than you and your friends looking high on life in your crop tops, flower headbands (that you just bought from Urban Outfitters), and a Valencia filter. Oh, maybe Earlybird -- it’s a little more rustic and hip. #DoubleTheFilterNeeded.       

3. Booze, Boys, and Bank Accounts. I think these three can all fall under one category. Whether it is the chance to hydrate responsibly with a Coors Light, explore your other taste in guys (the hipster), or spend your hard earned money from working at the local ice cream shop on a ticket to see bands you know are talented but couldn’t name one of their songs, it’s all well worth it in the end when you come home sporting the music festival’s name on a grungy wristband. 

4. Sisterly Bonding. Enough poke fun. There really is no better friendship than one with a sorority sister. And if it takes pitching a tent, not showering for four days, and listening to a playlist with all the bands’ most popular songs on repeat for two weeks in advance, for you to get together with your out-of-state sisters, then by all means, go buy yourself that ticket and those high-waisted jeans.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
