10 Signs You're In Delta Phi Epsilon
NYU Delta Phi Epsilon

So you did it. You took the plunge and did sorority recruitment. Even though it was probably stressful and maybe at times overwhelming (who are we kidding, you had so much fun), it was more than worth it.

Joining Delta Phi Epsilon was hands down one of the best decisions I have ever made. This group of women have shaped me into a leader, a listener and a sister. I would not be the woman I am today without DPhiE. They have seen me at my worst and built me up to my best.

We are connected on so many levels and by so many different things. Here are just a few things that make us who we are:

1. Unicorns. Everywhere.

Look around your room. What do you see? How many unicorns can you count? (Mine is seven.)

2. Everything in your room is either purple or gold.

What color should I paint this canvas? The answer is probably purple or gold. It's all about the aesthetic.

3. Esse Quam Videri is your sorority motto and your life motto.

To be rather than to seem to be.

4. Justice, Sisterhood and Love are more than just three words.

These words are more than just words. They are values and a lifestyle we choose to follow.

5. Deepher Dude is easily one of the most exciting events of the year.

What's more fun than watching a bunch of guys on campus perform their best talents for a good cause?

6. Pearls are a girl's best friend.

The perfect accessory.

7. March 17 isn’t just a day to celebrate St. Patrick.

Even though it is fun to celebrate both at the same time.

8. DIMES are more than coins in your pocket.

Probs some of the best people on the planet. They started this organization many of us call a home away from home.

9. CFF and ANAD have a special place in your heart.

It feels good to support and donate to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders. Whether you have been personally affected by one of our philanthropies or not, seeing the impact of our donations means the world.

10. You have found forever friends.

These girls will be some of my bridesmaids. They will watch me grow and help raise my children. And I wouldn't want it any other way.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
