A Letter To My Sorority

To the group of girls I am eternally grateful for.

A Letter To My Sorority

First off, thank you. Never have I felt more at home on campus then I have in our house. There's nothing like coming home to 52 of your best friends. At first I thought that was a cheesy thing sorority girls said, but the longer I've been in the sorority, the more I see it is true. I have a go to person to get dinner with. A friend I go to in crisis. The friend I go to when I want to have fun. My study buddy. My foodie friend. It's so interesting that a little over a year ago none of you were in my life, because now I can't picture my life without you.

You have given me a moral compass to live by with our purpose. The more I grow as a college woman the more the lines of the purpose resonate with me. I love seeing you all living the purpose. There is so many people in our chapter that I look up to.

Thanks for pairing my with my amazing big. Essentially you gave me my best friend for a lifetime. I don't know what I would do without her daily texts. She's my go to person from everything from rants to laughs. She's such an inspiration to me.

Also, how could I not thank you for pairing me with my little. Never has someone lit up my life so much. Every time we see each other we run up to each other screaming. To an outsider we probably look nuts, but to each other there's no other way to greet one another. I love our mushy social media presence.

It's amazing to see a girl walking down the streets of New York City wearing our letters and know we have an instant connection. I love being part of such an incredible national organization. We do such great work. Wherever I go I know my affiliation with this organization will serve me well. There will always be alumni chapters I can be apart of regardless of where I end up.

Thank you all for believing in me when I did not even believe in myself. You lift me up during my low points and you celebrate my highs. I've learned so much from all of you.

You are my role models, my friends, and my sisters. I am eternally grateful for all of you.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
