Thank you for being the best sisters a girl could ask for.

A Letter To My Twisted Pledge Class
Sutton Reekes

Dear Twisted,

I want to start off by saying thank you. Thank you for always being there for me. Thank you for picking me up when I’m down. Thank you for the constant support. But also, thank you for being my sisters.

We started this incredible journey together three months ago, and although it hasn’t always been easy, I couldn’t imagine having anyone else as my pledge sisters. Throughout everything, you’ve been the best and have always given me a reason to smile every single day. These past three months have been some of the busiest of my life, but if I ever needed help or had to catch up because I missed something, I always had someone there. I couldn’t be more grateful.

I knew back in September I wanted to be in a sorority and figured I would meet people and make friends, but I never realized that I wouldn’t just gain friends, I would gain sisters. I know that sounds dumb because of course, I would get sisters, but what I mean is that I met 19 girls who I love and value immensely, who are way more than just friends.

You all came into my life at the perfect time, a time where I needed you most but didn’t realize it. I was lost, in a place and attending college 3.5 hours away from home, knowing no one, confused as to what was going on. I didn’t admit it, but I really had no idea what I was doing.

But then, I suddenly gained 19 pledge sisters. People that I knew I could go to with anything and everything, at any point in time. In no time at all, I had friends in my classes, always had someone to get food with, and overall people to just be with. Woah, was this really happening?

As soon as you all came into my life, my college experience immediately changed, but for the better. I could not be more grateful to have you all in my life, thank you for coming into it and changing it. I thought I had it all figured out back then, but now I know that I really do. With you guys, I can do anything and everything.

And never forget, just like you all have been there for me, I’ll always be there for you guys. I love each and every one of you.

Love,

Allison

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
