Feelings/thoughts for second draft

1. You don’t know anything from the outside unless you are in

2. Sometimes the stereo types are true

3. It’s not all fun and games

4. Passion

5. Stress

6. Family

7. Symbolism

8. Responsibility

Scene- I sat uncomfortably at the football house I was dragged to one night during hurricane sandy. I mean, I didn’t have any power and the bar closed early, so my friends found us an alternative place to go, why not? Never getting along well with football players, I sat quietly on the couch. Quietly and calmly, that was until the big meat head stomped down the stairs. Trying to hold a knowledgeable question with him was painful, he didn’t have much to say. Well besides, “What’s with your attitude you blonde bitch, you think you’re so smart, you’re in a sorority, sorority girls are dumbasses.”  

After brainstorming in class, I realized a lot of my thoughts going through my head about my sorority. Wednesday night I always have my mandatory sorority meetings at 8 P.M so if my brain is asked to write down what it is truly thinking, everything will focus on my sorority. Since my first draft of our first assignment was rather depressing yet memorable, I decided I am going to lean towards the lighter, more humorous side, and focus on the life of a “sorority girl.” I mean, we are all the same aren’t we? That’s actually not true. The stereotypical sorority girl is rich, pays for her friends, snobby, and only cares about partying. I feel that in this draft I can really put my true feelings and emotions behind those stereo types. By doing that, I can also incorporate all sorts of stereo types; coming from a girl who is often stereotyped for my sorority and blonde hair, I know how it feels. Its an awful feeling to be looked down on, especially on something you work so hard and long for. There is a lot to know about the life of a sorority girl, and I feel that this draft is my chance to let everyone know.
