So i think we're due for an update... oh how things have changed. .........This is the original........ TOP 10 WAY YOU KNOW YOU'RE GETTING TO BE "OLD SKOOL" (in no particular order) 1. Everyone that USED TO know your name when you went anywhere (installs, presents, parties, etc.) are gone 2. Everyone asks when you crossed and your response is "a while ago" 3. You look around the room and all of a sudden you realize all your pledge sisters/bros graduated 4. Looking at your house roster, you can point to every name and say "I PLEDGED YOUR ASS" 5. You try and run for a position in your house only to realize you've held them all... or at least all the ones you wanted 6. You have a GRAND LIL if not farther down the line 7. When talking to your neos, you start every sentence with, "well back when i pledged...." 8. You look in your closet to notice you have 3 sections to your closet, kick-it clothes, work clothes, and GREEK CLOTHES.... and the "greek clothes" section takes up 50% of your wardrobe (although you hardly wear them anymore) 9. You go to house parties and watch the neos get TRASHED and think "fucking stupid asses... i was NEVER like that" 10. People ask when you crossed and after you tell them, they scream "GODDAMN! YOU'RE OLD SCHOOL!" ******************************************************************************************************** And THIS is the new one TOP 10 WAYS YOU KNOW YOU'RE GETTING TO BE "TOO OLD SCHOOL" (in no particular order) 1. Everyone that USED TO know your name when you went anywhere (installs, presents, parties, etc.) are gone are ENGAGED, MARRIED, or have KIDS... and the only reason you know this is because of FACEBOOK or MYSPACE. (LOL!) 2. You stopped going to affiliated events a looooong time ago but still get a little peeved when you don't hear anything about what's going on in your house as an Alum. 3. You realize all your pledge sisters/bros graduated HAVE FALLEN OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH WILL ONLY GET TOGETHER IF YOU PLAN A REUNION 4. Looking at your house roster, you can point to every name and say "I PLEDGED YOUR ASS" "i PLEDGED some of your asses... the rest of you I DON'T EVEN KNOW!" "WHO THE FUCK IS THAT? When did SHE cross??" 5. You try and run for a position in your house only to realize you've held them all... or at least all the ones you wanted 6. You have a GREAT GREAT GREAT GRAND LIL if not farther down the line... and you only met him/her once only seen pictures of them 7. When talking to your neos, you start every sentence with, "well back when i pledged...." "back in the day.... when i was still active...." "oh lord... are you from my chapter too?" 8. You look in your closet to notice you have 3 sections to your closet, kick-it clothes, work clothes, and GREEK CLOTHES.... and the "greek clothes" section takes up 50% of your wardrobe (although you hardly wear them anymore) You are trying to GIVE AWAY your greek shit to your lineage cuz you know you're not gonna use it anymore. Whatever you have failed to give away has turned into a dust collector or a night shirt 9. You go to house parties and watch the neos get TRASHED and think "fucking stupid asses... i was NEVER like that" "Fucken Neos.... what's your name again??" You just don't go to house parties anymore... cuz we're old enough to go to the BARS! 10. People ask when you crossed and after you tell them, they scream "GODDAMN! YOU'RE OLD SCHOOL!" "WTF are you doing HERE?!.... you're HELLA OLD!" You randomly show up to an affiliated party (for whatever reason) and people know who you are, when you crossed, who your pledge bros/sisters are and bow down to you for being the oldest MF in the spot... then they grab you a beer 11. You go to ANY greek party, find SOMEONE that crossed around the same time as you, and talk about who has to wake up earlier to go to work the next day |
