Pi Beta Phi

If you are blessed enough to wear that wine and silver blue and throw those angel wings so proudly, then there are several things you know, without a doubt, to be true. It is no secret that Pi Beta Phi is a very special organization, and whether you are a Kentucky Gamma or a California Beta, these are things all Pi Phi's can relate to.

1. Feeling the urge to do Ring Ching when you hear glass clinking together.

2. Being able to throw what you know with wings, an arrow on your hand, or an arrow with your arms.

3. Being asked what "Read-Lead-Achieve" means at every philanthropy event.

4. Having an undying love for Dr. Seuss bound by many years of reading at libraries for service week.

5. Having your big make a halo over your head for the first time is the best feeling.

6. You know the difference between wine and silver blue, and maroon and light blue.

7. Being a part of three different Pi Phi Shirt Swap groups on Facebook.

8. Admitting that when you first joined you thought it was pronounced NBO.

9. Shouting, "That's my sister!" every time you see Jennifer Garner or Jenna Dewan-Tatum.

10. Taking a picture in front of Arrowmont in Gatlinburg, throwing what you know.

11. Signing everything PPLAOM.

12. You have a never ending supply of arrow accessories.

13. All of your sisters have a little angel emoji in your contacts.

14. Constantly looking forward to the next cookie shine.

15. You can pretty much guarantee half your paycheck is going to Pi Phi Express.

16. Not only do you have a big, but also a Beta Buddy.

17. You know that we are not a sorority, but a "women's fraternity."

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.

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.
