Whether you are living in a sorority house, a dorm corridor with your pledge class, or an off campus house, living with your sorority sisters is an experience unlike any other. Here are some things you learn while living with your sisters.

1) You are sometimes (almost) as messy as a fraternity house

A clean room doesn’t last long. If the weekend is approaching or you’re planning on going out within the next few days, cleaning is ultimately pointless. After trying on an absurd amount of outfits and rushing out the door, you’ll most likely find that your clean room has turned into a colossal mess. And it probably won’t get cleaned until Sunday, if at all.

2) Need something? GroupMe is always there for you

GroupMe saves lives. Whether you are locked out, bored, hungry, or need to borrow an outfit (or borrow just about anything) your sisters are there and willing to share. It almost seems too good to be true that you can instantly ask everyone you’re living with for just about anything, and they’re right down the hall. If you’re living in a corridor with your whole pledge class, there’s a strangely good chance that someone is going to have that obscure 80s ski jacket, coconut bra, or American flag sweat suit that you need for a themed party.

3) Alone time is rare, and it’s weirdly okay

This may sound creepy and cliché, but living with your sisters is truly one giant sleepover. When coming home to your house or dorm, you are often times welcomed by sisters who don’t actually live there, and it’s totally normal. Your door is usually cracked or open, and knocking is rare. Houses often end up spending less time in their bedrooms and more time watching movies in their living rooms. Pledge classes living in dorms find that little powwows often occur in certain rooms, and girls flock until there are way too many girls in way too small of a dorm room.

4) You live together, but you still do just about everything together

You eat together. You walk to class together. You shop together. You carpool. You go to the gym together. You go to chapter together. You go out together.  And then you suddenly realize you do just about everything together, and it’s totally fine.

5) Quiet hours are a joke

Whether your dorm has regulated official “quiet hours” or it’s past bedtime in your house let’s face it, quiet hours don’t actually exist. Sometimes you just need that late night throwback music blasting session after killing a bottle of wine. Or you just need someone to listen to your screaming drunken rant after coming home from a night out.

6) Real clothes are completely optional

This includes pants. Pants are often times forgotten, and its accepted and welcomed. When you see your sisters walking around the corridor or house and they aren’t getting ready to go out in public, they are most likely wearing something similar to pajamas. This is usually an extra large t-shirt or sweatshirt with no pants. If they’re wearing bottoms, its definitely leggings or sweats. You know it’s reached a new extreme when a residence director sends an email to the hall reminding everyone to wear pants…

7) Your sisters’ clothes are your clothes

When living with your sorority sisters, you ultimately have thousands of outfit options at your fingertips. You can simply go door to door and “closet shop” until you find something suitable for the night’s occasion. Because what’s better than shopping for clothes that you don’t even have to pay for? Also, you give the clothes back after wearing them, which eliminates the temptation of being an outfit repeater.

8) You and your sisters have an unspoken routine

You and your sisters most likely have some sort of routine in which you all must participate. Common routines can include, but are not limited to: watching the weekly Wednesday night American Horror Story episode, Sunday trips to the grocery store, going to your favorite themed night at the bar, and Saturday or Sunday hung-over breakfast trips. If a sister misses out on one of these routines that she is usually a part of, it’s just not the same.

9) You don’t just have 1 room; you have multiple.

Sexiled from your room? No worries! There are plenty of other rooms and several futons that have free space for you to crash for the night. Too disoriented after a night out to get into your room? Someone is sure to take you in for the night. Roommate still sleeping? You can always carry out your obnoxious noisy activities in a sister’s room.
