Party Like a RoKstar


“Not everyone will understand this, but sometimes I’m reminded how great it is to have a shield to lean on.” – Soror Carole Peters

Truer words have never been spoken.  From a few weeks after my arrival up until now, most of my weekends have been spent partying like a rockstar with the RoKstars, which is name that we’ve adopted to represent the Republic of Korea Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.

Yes, people….we have a chapter in South Korea!
(And so do the other BGLOs)

When I tell you that my time here would be so completely different if I didn’t have these ladies in my life, it’s not an understatement.  It makes a difference when, thousands of miles away from home, you have so many people that you can count on, party with, cry with, celebrate with, and overall enjoy being around—Delta sorors in the best sense of the word.

Some of us are English teachers, some of us are military, and some of us work for the government, but ALL of us are awesome.  :-)



This not everyone in the chapter, but it’s just a few of us that got together for an impromptu photo shoot one Saturday morning.
