Hi, Everyone!
This is what some may call a very rare occasion, isn’t it? Hahaha!
Ordinarily, I wouldn’t post a blog entry in the evening, but seeing as how I found some time from my very busy schedule to holla at y’all for a moment, I decided to go ahead and take advantage of a great situation.
Well, let’s just get right on down to the nitty-gritty.
All things considered, I’m sure y’all have noticed that I haven’t really talked that much about joining a sorority, and I have a perfectly good reason as to why: You see, while I am still highly interested in sorority life, I have decided that now is not the time for me to concern myself with such. There is a huge part of me that has me focused on my academic studies; besides, not only am I focused on becoming a great kindergarten teacher, but I’m also focused on setting a good example for the younger female generation. Don’t get me wrong—I’m not saying that sorority life will hinder or deter a young woman from being the best that she can be; I’m just saying that right now, the sorority life is not for me.
And yet for some reason, my heart is still with Zeta Phi Beta, albeit for one reason only, and that reason has everything to do with the colors of my future college alma mater.
By the way: It broke my heart to tell Mrs. Nyan the bittersweet news when she approached me yesterday. She asked me point blank if I made a decision on which sorority I would join, and in doing so, she was nudging my shoulder incessantly. I told Mrs. Nyan that I had to follow my heart, and my heart was with the Zetas. I also told her that even though I wanted to be a Zeta, I didn’t have the time to fully commit—at least, not this year, anyway. Well, y’all, Mrs. Nyan was a touch disappointed (she is a proud AKA after all), but she understood my decision. “But if you ever change your mind between now and two months before you graduate, let me know—we’ll take real good care of you,” she smiled.
I gotta hand it to Mrs. Nyan—she’s doing everything she can to see that get that pink-and-green education!
Well, y’all—there it is. I don’t know what the future holds for me next year or the year after that (a lot can change between now and then), but I’m just saying that I’ve gotta follow my heart right now, and right now, I just don’t have the time for anything other than the world of academia.
Like I said: There’s always next year, right?
Hugs & Kisses,
Natasha
