What makes a Sorority Girl Busy?

There are a lot of negative notions about sorority girls. My sis defined sorority girls as bunch of girls with nothing to do. But that was only before, during her high school days. A lot has been said about sorority girls. Most people think the same way as my sis thought. For most people, sorority girls are like a normal circle of friends who just hang out doing make-ups, nail polishing, shopping, bar hopping, smoking, partying and everything girly, wild and crazy.

Upon being a sorority girl myself, I have realized that there's more to being a sorority girl. I'm a member of the UPLB Delta Lambda Sigma Sorority. We do a lot of things each year, things that I never expected. We participate in activities held by the university like assisting during campus tour for freshmen, preparing breakfast for freshmen during first day of classes, volunteering in cleaning the campus during February Fair and a lot more. We also hold our own activities inside the university and even outside the campus. Our activities in the university include Trivial Pursuit, a general information quiz contest, Harry Potter Quiz Contest, Film Showing in the university dormitories, and the list go on and on. Last year, in out golden anniversary celebration, we held a symposium for women in the university. We also held a medical mission. On the other hand, our activities outside the campus include outreach activities like participating in community development activities like in Gawad Kalinga and Habitat for Humanity. We also hold our own outreach activities for elders in home for the ageds and for children in the streets and orphanages. We also aim to promote camaraderie with other sororities, organizations and students of the university. That's why we hold activities like Inter-Sorority Badminton Tournament, Booze and Balls (a drink-all-you-can party), film showing, Aesthetics (UP shirt design contest) and a lot more.

Such a busy schedule right? But we don't just work, we also study our lessons and still find time to have some fun.
