An Open Letter Of Love For The Alpha Omicron Pi Sisterhood
Hallie Cunningham

Dear Stella, Jessie, Helen and Elizabeth,

I never pictured myself becoming a member of a Greek organization. I signed up for recruitment with my friends because I thought it would be something fun to do. Little did I know, I would find a home within my chapter. You created this organization in 1897 with an everlasting bond and it changed the lives of thousands of women across the world. I am forever indebted to you because I have never felt more loved than I do when I walk into our house.

I have been changed for good because of Alpha Omicron Pi. I was welcomed into a loving chapter of over eighty women, giving me the sisters my parents never did. I can rely on these women for anything I may need, even if it is just a comment on my Instagram post. Together we are able to influence positive change within our community through philanthropy events and other activities. I have never seen a more dedicated group of people than my sisters at our philanthropy events. I am inspired every single day by these women and their dedication to change the world, one child at a time.

Alpha Omicron Pi has taught me to inspire ambition. I strive to help others and inspire them with the love I have for my chapter. I have learned how to be a better student, a better friend, and a better leader. Being in a sorority gives you the opportunity to improve yourself in all aspects. Through leadership roles, or just simply by being present, you are always given a chance to create a beneficial situation for yourself. Having an environment of women who love and support you is so important. Knowing you have people all across the country who hold the same values dear is irreplaceable.

We all are meant to be sisters and you made that possible. So, thank you for creating this sisterhood. I am so grateful for every sister you have given me and I wear my letters with the most pride and alpha love in my heart.

Love,

Your Sister

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.
