Name ”My name is Amaranta Sabrina Marerro.”
Nickname ”Well, the usual consists of Ama, Ran, Argentina, Sabi, Prez, Queen Multitasker, and the ever creative Bri.”
Age ”I just turned twenty-one right before I started my Senior year. Legal to drink, baby!”
Major ”I'm a double major, actually. I'm majoring in Performance (Musical Theatre) and Choreography. I'm minoring in Performance (Vocal).”
Sexuality ”Proudly Sapiosexual. I never judge based on gender!”
House ”Theta Chi, baby! President, to be exact!”
Thoughts on being a Theta ”I love being a Theta. I always have – Its great to be surrounded by so many girls that are just like me. I could care less that we're teased by the Alphas and sometimes the Zetas – We're not the ones with tutors because we're too busy partying or fucking everything bipedal with a pulse. Plus we don't have to sleep with our teachers to get good grades. I love being around women that aren't looking down fake noses at me just because I don't follow their bad examples of living.”
Likes ”Well, I like cheap but chic fashion, candy, dancing, singing, animals, playing piano, playing violin, playing guitar, performing in musicals, busking, acting, A Capella, competing, baking, studying, composing, writing lyrics, hanging out with my sisters, my little sister, Theta Chi, Yoga, college, Sorority events, exotic cuisine, Kappas, committed relationships, Juju, Nunu, Mumu, and Ruru. Its a lot, I know! Oh! Plus my two lovers, Jack and Morgan, hehe!”
Dislikes ”Ugh! Where do I start? Sluts, Alphas...wait. Those two are the same. Hm – Cheaters, so-called players, dating, one-night stands, marijuana, drugs, clear alcohol, people who stereotype based on social status and race, being called a Mexican, being called a Spick, people picking on my little sister, getting into fights, and people who act like they're better than everyone else.”
Fears ”I could say that I fear flunking. But I make perfect grades. Uh – I guess my greatest fear is being alone. But I'm afraid of being played and cheated on like all the times in the past. Its a vicious circle.”
Personality ”How can I describe myself in my own words? Well – I feel like I'm an average woman. I'm a music prodigy, sure. But I think that I'm average in looks. Cute would be my words – I don't think I'm sexy and I hate when that's the first thing people say to me. Ugh! Hm. I can be a bit...judgmental. But mostly when it comes to Alphas. How can I not when they have such a reputation? I've yet to meet a girl from there who isn't either a slut, a moron, a bitch, or a liar. I remember that my Freshman year, half of them needed tutors. The president was sleeping with the Lit 101 professor! Anyways. Back to me. I'm very laid back, really I am. I love just hanging out whenever I have the time to, watching flicks or dancing with my friends. And yes, I say flicks. I use a lot of...retro words. Or maybe vintage is the word? I also speak Spanglish and sometimes I forget the english word for something when I have a brain fart. I'm so glad that my professors understand and let it slide when I'm writing my papers. wipes brow As you probably already noticed, I'm not a huge fan of the Alphas. We'll get to the why later, but I can't stand any of them.
I'm huge on multitasking. Really. Really. Huge. Multitasking is my life! I'm always doing something – I'm hardly ever still. While I'm studying, I'm composing. While I'm hanging out, I'm dancing or choreographing a dance. While I'm doing homework, I'm singing and writing lyrics on the side. What do I do on weekends? Yoga with my fellow Theta before proceeding to Starbucks for a Double Chocolate Chip Frappe, then to the mall for some shopping because I window shop on Wednesdays, then for lunch I go to Buffet City because they have the best sushi, then we head out to the beach or sometimes the aquarium, by the time the sun sets we have ice cream, pizza, and movies. That's how the rest of the night goes. Unless I'm booked at one of the other Greek Organizations or elsewhere for a performance! No matter what, i have three hours of A Capella practice every week day. I'm extremely organized! I might be OCD, actually, now that I think about it...
My attitude? Well I'm outgoing and I love making new friends and helping people. Time permitting, of course. I don't mind pushing a few things back, though. I'm quite optimistic and I hate seeing people upset and I'm always compelled to find out what's wrong and then help out. Comforting people just comes naturally to me. I'm very passive-aggressive when I'm irritated, though. I have an intermittent explosion disorder. It means that I let my anger build and build and build before I snap. And when I snap...I snap. I get very...physical. So I try to keep a stress-free environment. That's why I do Yoga!”
History
”I was born to Yazmin and Angel Marerro some twenty-one years ago in good ole Tuscan, Arizona. Both of them went to Fulton. My mother was in Theta Chi like her mother before her. My mother was also president, which really made abuelita proud. My dad? He was a Beta. He had quite the reputation with the women on campus, but, and this is according to my father himself, when he looked into Yazmin's big green eyes he knew that he was going to marry her one day. I loved hearing stories about their life. Both sets of my great-grandparents were illegals. My father's from Spain and my mother's from Argentina. But once they became legalized, they soon began to flourish. My father's side of the family runs a small bakery franchise and my mother's side are world-class entertainers. Anyways, back to me. So – A beautiful baby with blue eyes was born on June twenty first. That's me! Anyways, I was born to a pretty wealthy lifestyle, as you can imagine. I wasn't spoiled, though. I had to work hard for everything and I was trained at a young age just like everyone else. I always had a busy schedule. If I wasn't at music lessons with Aunt Melina, I was taking acting lessons from Uncle Ernesto. If not that, I was practicing vocals with mother. And if not all that, abuelita would be teaching me to bake more things.
I didn't mind everything because I loved doing it and being with my family in the process. I was overjoyed when my little sister was adopted (into the family) because I began to teach her what I knew. I am what you call a performance prodigy: If it has to do with performing, particularly dancing, acting, and musical type things, I take to it like fish to water. Its so easy for me because I'm so passionate it about it. I can't see myself doing anything else. I always made good grades and was always studying. Honestly? I rarely had time for friends. I never even had a job because I was always so busy. I always had only my family. I never went to slumber parties or went to the movies. But it didn't phase me. When I started at Fulton, I didn't know what becoming a Theta would entail. My mother and abuelita said that it was too difficult to put into words. And now I see why. I was overjoyed at the sisterhood that I found.
Now, you're wondering why the Alphas hate me so much. My Freshman year, Natalie was my roommate and we were both really good friends. Best friends, actually. She talked me into pledging Alpha and I thought that it would be fun...right? But I saw what awful bitches they were and I saw how they talked behind everyone's backs and slept around and drank. It was like a foreign world to me. Having always been around my family, I wasn't used to people being that way. We were always kind to each other. Sure we had fights and would gossip, but...Not like this. I quickly dropped and told them all to go fuck themselves, pretty much. I was a bit pissed that they thought I was Alpha material! Instead, I went to Theta Chi. I never felt so at home away from home.
College was a breeze for me. I loved all of my classes and being part of Theta Chi. I made friends, though I consider them family, really. I was always active, just like I was as a child. I loved the bikini car washes, the bake sales, the parties, the galas, everything! When I talked to Michelle, you would not believe how happy I was that she chose to attend Fulton as well. Rush week is going to be so fun!”
Anything else
”I only drink dark liquor with Sprite or Coke. I also like Mike's Hard Lemonade and Schmirnoff Ice. Alright – Juju is my pet doberman, Nunu is my Himalayan kitten, Mumu is my brazilian rainbow boa, and Ruru is my blue macaw. I keep them in the sorority house, of course. Also, I have four siblings besides my sisters. The triplets and the 'Oops! Kid'. My brothers Esteban, Guillermo, Hector, and Javier. My mother was a stereotypical young breeder, hehe. I also compete in the ICCAs with the Fulton Voices in Your Head - Which I am naturally the leader of.”
