11 Signs You're An Alpha Chi Omega
Sorority Sugar

If you're an Alpha Chi Omega, you know these to be true:

1. The colors scarlet and olive are more than just "Christmas colors."

Scarlet red and Olive green mean way more than Christmas colors. They are the colors of your sorority and they mean so much to you deep down.

2. The character of Estelle Leonard on Friends is more than just a character


For those that don't know, Estelle Leonard's character on Friends is named for one of the seven founders of Alpha Chi Omega (and one of the producers was an Alpha Chi as well!)

3. You're a huge fan of Alyson Hannigan, Condoleezza Rice, and Trista Sutter.

These are just a few of several famous alumni of Alpha Chi Omega

4. You probably own a set of pearls.


I remember when I got my string of pearls. It was so special to me because it always made me think of my love for Alpha Chi.

5. You know the red carnation is the best flower.


Red carnations >>> red roses

6. Every time you see a lyre, you get real excited


A lyre or lyre bird is definitely pretty cool, and anytime you see one in artwork or otherwise, you have to have it

7. February is the best month of the year.

MacDowell month is the best month

8. But it's not as great as October 15...

October 15, 1885 was the best day in history because it's the day 7 women decided to come together and form the best sorority in the nation

9. You throw what you know all the time.


Your hand sign happens to be pretty easy, just don't touch your thumbs together when you throw it

10. Domestic violence awareness is a huge part of your life.

Alpha Chi Omega's philanthropy has made so many strides in the last several years, and continues to every single day.

11. You strive each day to seek the heights.


Keep seeking the heights, lyre ladies.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
