I have a friend that recently went to a XYZ orgazational fair and accidenlty touched the XYZ blanket. Also while at the fair she was wearing the colors of the oraganization.... was she wrong ?
To me its sooo stupid when greeks get mad for people wearing their colors around campus. Some people love pink and green, some people love red, and so on. But I do understand the notion behind not wearing their colors to the rush. But when greeks get mad over just wearing their colors on any given day, they have NO LIFE outside of their greek, really who does that?!?!?
i remember i had to go to an Honors banquet this spring, and about 2 months before this i bought this lovely evening dress but it was green and with a some pink near the chest area with lil pale pink roses, it was really pretty ya had to have seen it, but when buying the dress i didnt know that AKA probate would be like a week before the banquet...but while walking to the banquet i got so many stares from other girls, and alot of my friends had crossed over iNTO aka and were at the banquet but werent wearing their colors and i felt horrible ....and one AKA at the banquet looked me up and down like i was the **** of the earth...it was just a horrible night for me even though i did win some awards*EVEN AN IPOD YAYYY* but i mean i couldnt like pick up another dress especially since im broke anyways and i did spend a pretty penny on it, and it was pretty last minute....but yeah all of my friends were ok with it i later found out, but the ones who werent lol...i think a few greeks in ANY organization may go overboard with the colors sometimes, ive even seen someone flip* ON ANOTHER COLLEGE CAMPUS in GA which i wont say* flip at a guy for wearing que colors, but it was freaking LA LAKER GEAR!!!..
If you're not interested in AKA, then I don't see the big deal. Also, if folks are 'underground,' then why are they at the banquet in the first place? lol
The only people that get a double take from me when they wear pink and green are girls, who have expressed interest in AKA to me or my chapter sorors and those who attend our programs.
^did u ever read that e mail that i sent you? :???: if you did i found it quite rude that you didnt say atleast a thank you!
I did read the mail, but i havent even been able to post/write like ive wanted to... ive def not tried to be rude ...i think the last note i sent was to jamila on this website for the past few days , and it took me an hour to post what i did to above..sorry though, thank you though for the information, cause it was really informational as well, check your email..not on hbcu but on facebook..cause this site **** and i wanted to wait to send a pm on hbcu but that really aint happening..
oh yeah thanks plebelle as well for your input...
and to whoever sent me the email yesterday on yahoo about me bad-mouthing the AKA's, which im not gonna say her user-name, and WHICH i couldnt respond due to my comp troubles...i did say ALL frats may have this problem, and alot of my friends are AKA's so that is the LAST group i would bad-mouth just like i would never degrade any other sorority on campus, whether Zeta, Delta, Shemsu-heru, etc...ok...thanks....
oh wait to clarify i was not a prospect!, though i love my friends who are AKAs and have plenty of em lol, but im kinda wanting another group to hopefully interview me...but ive never expressed interest in being a prospect...so i guess maybe a few were mad for some other reason i guess....which im still a bit confused about...which maybe kenya or kenyaeyez can explain to me ya know, cause its kinda been a puzzle to me , and i dont want the same thing to happen with the other group...
my $.98....
well... the way i see it. If it was out for the display and they were careful/respectful as said before then i see no real issue.
They way i see it. They don't my secrets, they don't know what the colors mean to me and my brothers, they have absolutely nothing to establish themselves as a member in my eyes and they won't till they take the appropiate steps to become an initiated member, so therefore they can admire and go about their own in peace.
As for rockin the colors... its whatever, they are common colors and they sure do look good. I'm being redundant, but as long as its not an interest its whatever... as long as u arent' blatantly perpetrating do you (and do it well... if u are gonna wear my colors u betta look good doing so).
...i know that's right
