Now that the recruitment process is over and we have all found our places and our people, we can start to enjoy the true meaning of sisterhood. Rush was hard, exhausting, traumatizing at times, laughable and finally over. And now we know we’ve just joined a sorority.

1. You just went from having no siblings to upwards of 150, and it is so overwhelming and so exciting all at the same time.

2. You’ve been a new member for maybe a month, and the T-shirt drawer is already exploding.

3. Your social calendar is suddenly filled with events, and now you have to ask yourself, “To craft or to cocktail?”

4. You unintentionally srat so hard your roommates don’t know how to handle the awesomeness.

5. People are constantly saying hi to you, and you now have to think about their names, even if you saw them 10 minutes ago.

6. You get these random moments of joy for knowing you’re in the best sorority out there.

7. You can walk into the house, sit down on the couch, and stay there for hours on end, laughing and talking with your new sisters.

8. You’ve always joked about the “sorority squat,” but now you know it to be true. And you secretly love it.

9. Big Reveal is next week, and you are literally counting down the days. No, really, you have it written down in three different places, and you downloaded a countdown app just for Big Reveal. You actually can’t wait any longer.

10. Your pledge class group message is giving you nonstop phone notifications. It’s gotten so bad, you keep your phone on "do not disturb" mode just so it doesn’t vibrate constantly.

11. As clichéd as it may seem, you know you’re where you’re meant to be. Your sisters won’t judge you when you buy too many pumpkin spice lattes or when you binge watch Netflix for hours instead of doing that paper that was assigned weeks ago and is due tomorrow. Let’s be honest, they’ll probably be right there with you drinking too many PSLs and watching too much Netflix.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
