It is that time of the year again! Anchor Splash is underway and it is high time to splash in the water with a week long love of philanthropy and bonding with fellow greeks. For the love of Service for Sight and the love of DG.

1. The cute shirts that you get to order for an entire week


Lets be real, sorority shirts are usually $35 on their own, but when this week comes around it’s a steal.

2. Repping your sorority not only because of a why not

3. Being shown some Panhellenic love

Everyone participating in events for your sorority puts on and raising money to help ‘Do Good.’

4. Watching everyone compete for a chance to win the Anchor Games

People get competitive out there, especially when it comes to penny wars and the Anchor Games.

5. Anchors and throwing the gamma are thrown on almost every single day

So many pictures and the symbol always has to be shown cause you’ve gotta throw what you know.

6. Spot a DG is a day that you decide to actually look nice because everyone and their mom is going to be taking pictures with you

The Greek life with the most pictures posted with a DG wins this day, and since pictures are being posted all day long, you might as well put on a little bit of makeup

7. The swim portion

Watching the Anchor Games on the last day because everyone gets completely into it, whether it is ‘Saving the Mermaid’ or the synchronized swimming.

8. The all you can eat night

Whether your chapter does Deserts with DG or Slice for Sight, everyone comes around for the all you can eat portion of the nights.

9. Knowing that the entire week long event it has gone to a good cause to help people see better

Service for Sight is something that is near and dear to every Delta Gamma. This week long event helps to raise the most money for the help to let people see again.

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.
