Greek Sing 

This past weekend I participated in a very big event in Greek life called Greek Sing.  Greek sing is where sororities and fraternities join together to put on a performance for the rest of Greek life.  My fraternity was teamed up with SDT and Acacia and our theme was the Wizard of Oz.  We probably practiced close to three times a week for about a month, and their was nothing more I hated then going to these practices for hours to learn a dance that I hated even more.  But when it came time for the performance I was happy that I practiced that much so that i wouldn't embarrass myself.  We didn't actually win any awards when it was all over, but i was proud to be part of Greek Sing at least once in my life and who knows I might do it again next year.

When I was around ten years old I partook in my first play, and it ended in a disaster I forgot my lines and was extremely embarrassed.  Ever since then I have never set foot near live performances, because ever since my first play I have had a huge case of stage fright.  But since I had to do Greek sing I was forced to go onto stage and to perform for others, and I think that it helped me get over my stage fright.  But most importantly it gave me a new appreciation for the theater.  Now that I have been through it myself I know just how hard anyone in a play works to put on a performance and even though I still might not like the theater I would never go and disrespect the people that put on a play.
