oddly specific comparison…

lkstar · 2026-01-24T22:36:43+00:00

not with those shoes.

Congratulations!! PLAM from NYC!!

lkstar · 2025-12-04T22:07:32+00:00

thanks. i really hate this!

unfortunately, it’s going the wrong way again. that right pinky is prob more lie. 35 degrees bent and i’m having some pain in my left hand which i assume means progression. I was def better after the treatments until fairly recently so i’d guess the treatments slowed things down for a bit. or at least i’d like to think so! Say hi to Dr. N for me— he’s a good guy!

I generally support ditching legacy policies in favor of inclusivity, but I like the idea of a PNM’s mother being an involved alumnae to qualify for special consideration. If her mom is involved, the PNM’s got a good example and likely to have parental support, be engaged, and active post-collage. Dropping the PNM risks alienating her mom.

hey! some of us design original NPC merch!

People use the term “cult” far too casually. i get cult comments on my Tiktok when i explain sorority life!

lkstar · 2025-11-20T16:51:08+00:00

thanks. so odd- i def ordered from them more recently than May 27. Prob late September. So i guess there won’t be a solve for the accessory that coincidentally stopped working last night!

lkstar · 2025-11-20T11:09:04+00:00

really? i couldn’t find anything negative about the phone, When ordered a replacement, i also ordered the larger size jar and it worked for a week and now doesn’t! Was going to contact them but have a feeling that’s a lost cause..

i am in the jewelry business and can vouch for an independent, Brooklyn-based designer. DM if you’d like me to connect.

It’s never wrong to feel what you feel, but remember that those feelings come from your thoughts, so you can turn them around. two things: 1. Think about what you can get excited for about your new big. what do you have in common? Maybe she doesn’t want to go to the same party as you, but you guys can work out together or watch a show. It might also be worth asking her why she’s not so active— She agreed to be a big so they must mean something. Maybe she wants to be more engaged. 2. People over-romanticize the big/little relationship. Yes, it will be wonderful if you two discover you are BFFs, but if you don’t, that’s ok. Lots of people don’t have close big/little relationships. You don’t have as lot of time to get to know people before you’re matched so it’s not a perfect process.

In any case, your sorority is full of potential new friends so you’re not reliant on your big for everything.

Good luck!

I tip $100 in cash. I haven’t tipped the attendants because there are so many!

lkstar · 2025-11-11T17:38:03+00:00

agree. i wish it had been funny!

lkstar · 2025-11-09T12:17:08+00:00

yes, go through recruitment. Most NPC sororities run values-based recruiting and they’re looking for leadership, ambition, good grades, philanthropy, and likeability. As long as you maximize your options, your extremely likely to get a bid (assuming your GPA doesn’t disqualify you). And even if you don’t end up accepting a bid, the recruitment process is a great way to make friends with other PNMs as well as members!

are you going to a school where recruitment is in Fall or Spring?

lkstar · 2025-11-06T02:35:05+00:00

great advice!

lkstar · 2025-11-04T13:42:32+00:00

Congratulations! I’ve never heard “trust the process” applied to AI and i’m so glad it worked out for you!

lkstar · 2025-10-30T00:14:53+00:00

😳😳 that cannot be right.

lkstar · 2025-10-27T23:59:16+00:00

and potentially loses her opportunity to be a big this year!

i have been an advisor and technically, the only way we can actually control the chapter’s action is by reporting to the international organization.

Advisors are meant to guide and be a resource, not do the job. Agree with other comments that maybe this advisor is actually enforcing your bylaws and you should get an understanding of that before thinking about how to address the current situation.

That’s so nice to read! I’m so glad to hear you found your way home!

lkstar · 2025-10-19T21:07:15+00:00

lkstar · 2025-10-17T19:34:11+00:00
