:-\ Fraternities and Sororities mga ka-PT, does it help?
well... i'm a member of a fraternity myself... and i must admit na joining one was really difficult to the point na gusto mo ng mag-quit at sa neophyte stage.. but i was egged on to hold on by its members and eyun naging full pledged member din.. this was in my High School days pa then later on another welcoming (paddling) in College naman... i didn't know then what to expect as a member, basta ang alam ko lang masaya kami at tropa-tropa... after graduation, nag-work ako.. nahiwalay ako sa grupo.. may mga instances na nagkikita kami, hand shakes syempre... sa mga chanced meetings namin duon ko lang nalaman na pwede ka palang tulungan in times of crisis or whatever na pwede itulong sa iyo ng isang member, ang rule kasi basta ba hindi ikahihirap o ikapapahamak ng isang member ay itutulong at gagawin nya para sa iyo... kahit na hindi ka nya ka-chapter basta nagkakaalaman kayo ng pagkikilanlan ay panigurado tutulungan ka nya... KAYO MGA Ka-PT. ano ang pulso nyo sa usapin ito?

May mga faterneties na maganda, and meron din naman na bad influence lang ang waste of time. Those should be banned in my honest opinion.
As for me, I didn't join one though uso yan nung high school, I just didn't see any compelling reason enough for me to join. But different strokes for different folks, nagkataon lang siguro na yung mga available sa area ko and in my time are not worth the aggravation of joining and didn't make too much sense for me to join.
I have plenty of friends in it though, sa magkaiba pa nga silang mga grupo, both have have expressed keen interest for me to join, pero sa mga nakita ko na nanyayari nung time na yoon na nag kaka rumble rumble sila, for no good reason at all, and attending meetings I really didn't have the time for, I just didn't think it was for me. I would grow bored out of it that I might alienate more people rather than potential friends to fraternize with. It was just a lose-lose situation.
I would like the ability to come and go as I pleased, and at the time it seemed to be quite a decision to make. It gave me the impression of being friends by default with people I didn't care for, and at the same time, having animosities with people who have done me no harm or wished me no ill will, well just because.
Too much drama and headache. I liked to live Hakuna matata sabi nga ng wise na Timon & Pumba.. And I'm embarrassed to admit, pero I spent most of my high school life chasing after skirts. Kaya I really didn't think much about heavy stuff like that.
Silly things like exchanging love letters across the room, flirting in the hallway, dancing with chicks at the prom, tatabihan mo sa flag ceremony whoever strikes your fancy, hanging out after school and stuff like that. Oh yeah, and counter strike.
But damn, I loved my HS life.. Good times.
Interesting question mate.

I do have one.. at nakita ko talaga ang pagtutulungan sa grupo ko.. though hindi ako ang naka experience pero yung isa kong ka brod..he is not physically fit at nahihirapan talaga sya maghanap ng work kaya lumapit sya sa isa sa ka brod ko and luckily nagkatrabaho sya pero kalaunan umalis din sya,, lumipat sya ng ibang company na ka brod ko din ang may ari at swerte nya sa office sya ini assign...
yung last convention namin madami din akong testimony na narinig ng mga ka sis at ka brod ko about sa naitulong ng grupo sa kanila, kaya Yes It is a big help. :D

Hindi ako sumali sa fraternity but i have experience some of the bad side of it... kasi yung mga classmate ko na lalaki ng highschool (80%) bumuo sila ng frat at may nakaaway sila na other frat. I saw one of my classmate being punched by an unknown guys and the guys ran when we tried to help. Not really an encouraging sight kaya hindi ako sumali.
But i can't really say na lahat ng fraternity ay hindi maganda. Siguro depende sa klase ng fraternity. Noong college kasi ako sa Don Bosco Mandaluyong, mayroon doong 2 fraternity (SI and APO) at magandang impluwensiya sila. They help the school community and their members.
Siguro neutral about fraternity.
