I feel like Lauren is one of my best friends. Like I watch her vids and I feel like she’s talking to me, she gives great advice, and is a good role model! She’s one of the youtubers that I feel is very genuine to her subscribers. I can’t wait to see her new apartment vids!!

[@TheLaurenNorris]

OMG THANK YOU

[@lschoes13]

I understand the recharge thing! I was very far from home and was in a sorority. The best thing I did for myself to help was that I never lived with my best friends, just friends. It allowed me to have space when i wanted and I had a lot of friends in and out of Greek life. I was a biology major and a lot of my friends weren’t in Greek life from that major so that helped too.

[@alurekez8272]

Noooooooooooo she's underrated!! 😩 she's so good with the edits and things. Others sit there and do nothing but gets like 15m views. But not her :( she's so good

[@kristinduck4566]

I'm so jealous that you got to live in this beautiful sorority house. I was in a sorority in college and our state didn't allow sorority houses for the longest time, I believe it was my senior year that got changed, I always wanted to live in one!

[@funfab9146]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX23anqonq1mitU

[@mrdad-zl9zl]

My state doesn't allow them so I actually forgot they existed outside of movies. The sorority girls at my university usually rent apartments together and one time I rented it over the summer while they were gone and they had so many sorority crafts all over the place

This was so interesting as a Canadian where Greek life isn’t really a thing (and I’m 24 so past that time in my life lol). Your room reminds me a lot of my freshman dorm! It was basically like yours with all the built ins but it was just me! I had a roommate who had her own separate room but we shared a little common space and bathroom! It was the best for us introverts because I had a roomie but also my own space ☺️. The double rooms though were not nearly as nice as your rooms! I like how your beds are on the same side of the room with a divider so you have privacy! Our double rooms had a bed on each side of the room so there was so little privacy; so glad I didn’t have to live there 🙈. For us, freshman year the rooms were just randomly given out but for the other years, it was based on GPA! Basically they made a list of everyone who would be living in next year from highest GPA to lowest and you would get to choose based on where you fell on the list. So interesting how different it is everywhere 🙂. You’re so cute gal 🥰

Back when I was in college, lived in a suite style dorm room. I’m also introverted. Back when I was in high school, I went to a small school (90 students 9-12) There was a lot of drama, I just had a good friend group. I loved the small classes but I agree, it’s annoying to see a small group all the time

[@VHale-yz7hc]

It’s def nice to blend into the crowd every now and again

[@bia_blossom]

For me as a European, this sorority thing is just something I saw in the 90s movies. 🙂 It's great to see how it looks like in the reality, thanks for your videos. You are very sweet and cheerful, it's fun to watch your channel. Greetings from Europe 💗

[@williamlucas4656]

In the case of the University of Alabama all of the sorority and fraternity houses with a couple of exceptions are owned by the university at least to the fraternities and sororities. This gives the university more control of the goings on, especially of the fraternities, which tend to be quite rowdy.

I’m brand new to your channel and I’m loving this video! Sorority life wasn’t for me as I’m a professional ballerina trained in Moscow, so I’ve been spending a lot of my life in Europe, especially Eastern Europe and the former Soviet countries. I’ve always been intrigued by Greek Life AND I’m obsessed with all sports especially the three types of football 🏈 ⚽️ I love how you said it’s an “SEC School” and I totally got it. I actually speak about the U.S. geographically by College Football conferences 😂 One of my secret talents is having a photographic memory and I’ve memorized all of Div I&II Mascots. A half Brazilian and half Portuguese Eastern European looking professional ballerina who knows Roll Tide, War Eagle/Tigers (why does Auburn get two?!), Bulldogs, Vols, Gators, Beaux Tigers, Miss St Bulldogs, Rebels, Wildcats, Razorbacks, Commodores and Gamecocks!!! I’ve been to a lot of games in person and I watch GAMEDAY, but I haven’t been to an SEC game yet.

[@talia8953]

House moms are usually "mom age" or maybe older. The one for my sorority and the ones I had friends in all had adult children. I'm sure it depends on the sorority, but mine wasn't an official alum but we gave her status as a sister because she was our house mom, even though she wasn't in our sorority in college. My sorority's was a professor at our school.

My college had sororities but no sorority houses. PA had a brothel law at the time. Even without a house dues were hellish expensive was way back in the stone ages before the Internet. I ended up dropping out of Rush. I knew it was more than I could handle with time and my finances. Best decision. Sophomore year, I was part of a charter class for Alpha Phi Omega. It was the perfect solution for me… Just enough social activities, a ton of philanthropy and much easier on my budget.
