6 Thoughts And Feelings During Sorority Recruitment
Acrocollective

I recently went through sorority recruitment, and can now say it was certainly an experience. Although I'm extremely glad its over (and I'm finally getting past the sickness and exhaustion that ensued), I am SO happy to have found my sorority in the process! That being said, I definitely felt a whole range of emotions throughout rush, and could think of no one better to convey these thoughts and feelings than the stereotypical sorority sisters of some my favorite shows and movies.

1. "Woah, that is a lot of clapping."

Or sometimes snapping. I really appreciate the enthusiasm, I do, however, I cringe imagining how red their hands must've felt by the end of the whole ordeal.

2. When you hear so many sorority names, they all start blurring together.

Is that a real sorority name or the name of a sorority from a movie? At first, it was all just gibberish to me - like learning a whole new language.

3. Hyping yourself up before a round.

Going into a room, and trying to get everyone to like you is hard. It's even harder getting cut. You just have to remember that you won't be a perfect fit everywhere you go.

4. "Is it time to go to bed yet?"

I'm aware that Beave from "Greek" is not a sorority girl, but I love him so it's okay. I can definitely agree though, once the exhaustion set in I was definitely for a bedtime story.

5. Finally finding the chapter you love.

You just have to hope the feeling's mutual!

6. Finally getting your bid.

Finally, the whole process is behind you. And it was SO worth it!! Time to celebrate!

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.
