15 Signs You're An Alpha Chi Omega
Rachel Mathys

1. You proudly wear Christmas colors all year long.

Scarlet red and olive green are always appropriate and consume most of the wardrobe of an Alpha Chi. Plus, everybody loves Christmas, so why not keep it going all year long.

2. You've taught people to hold their thumbs down when throwing what they know.

Sisters gotta help each other out. We all want the perfect pictures, so we have each others' backs.

3. You PACE all day, everyday.

On Wednesdays, we wear letters. But, every Alpha Chi lives to "promote Alpha Chi everyday". What better to do with the hundreds of amazing t-shirts you get.

4. Every time you spot a lyre you get unreasonably excited.

You probably didn't know what a lyre was until you joined Alpha Chi. It was just a harp looking thing, but now you get uncontrollably excited when you spot one and have to point it out.

5. October 15th is the best day of the year.

The day seven amazing collegiate women came together to form the first fraternity of its kind. We are forever grateful to you, Bertha, Bessie, Nellie, Amy, Anna, Olive and Estelle.

6. Condi is more than just a diplomat to you.

Condoleezza Rice, yep, she's an Alpha Chi Omega. Aubrey O'Day of Danity Kane, she's an Alpha Chi. Bachelorette contestant, Trista Sutter, yet again an Alpha Chi.

7. You find yourself singing all the time, even if you are tone deaf.

When you join a sorority with a music background, you get used to it really quick. But, we all learn to love it and realize we should beautiful all together as one.

8. You love glitter.

I mean, what sorority girl doesn't love glitter? We've all had the time we go overboard with glitter and we are cleaning up remnants of it for months.

9. You always strive to see beauty in even the most common things of life.

We live by our symphony. It eloquently articulates all of our daily goals for ourselves and what standards we promise to uphold for the rest of our lives.

10. You would scream about DVA from the rooftops if you could.

You will never meet another group of people more passionate about an issue. We are women helping women. And, we wouldn't have it any other way.

11. You take every opportunity you have to throw what you know.

Photo opps are everything and we gotta rep our AchiO.

12. Red carnations are your favorite flower.

Simple, but beautiful and to us it symbolizes something so much more.

13. You could spell out Alpha Chi Omega in your sleep.

A-L-P-H-A C-H-I OMEGA, A-L-P-H-A C-H-I OMEGA. We are the Alpha Chi's and we are really great (and we know it).

14. Pin attire is the best attire.

Look good, feel good, represent Alpha Chi good.

15. You're a real strong woman.

The strongest women in the entire world. We are there as women to build each other up, and that is what we do best as Alpha Chi Omegas.

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.
