Family & Friends

Was it sage advice or?

So I am graduating early from college. I just found out in October and I was really stressed and kind of sad about it. I wanted to wait until I was ready. I wanted to do so many things but I’ve accepted it and am also kind of excited now. My sister is also in college and goes to the same school as me. She was supposed to graduate a couple years before now. She had children and kind of got held back. She also joined a sorority during the time before she started having children. Upon finding out I graduate I guess it kind of lit a fire under her. Now we both graduate this year. I never looked at it as any competition but I kind of feel like she does. I asked her about the process of joining a sorority because I’ve always wanted to but I thought i had time. She completely discouraged the idea. She said it was for popular people and that I shouldn’t do it. I have a hard time making friends in university and thought this would help. She wouldn’t even answer my questions about it. At first I thought that it was just some advice but even so sorority’s come with amazing networking opportunities and I just wanted to know if I could possibly break away from my shyness to do it. My grandmother wouldn’t even tell people that I was graduating until after she knew that my sister was. I feel kind of down about it but I still want to join. Should I listen to her? Or get my own experience?
