I can't believe the day is finally here! You've finished college and are moving on to bigger and better things. I know it's probably a scary time right now, but everything will fall into place. You've come this far, and you've accomplished so much. You have balanced work, playing a sport, sorority obligations, and difficult classes. I'm so proud of all the things you've done and I can't wait to see where you end up next!
I met you during recruitment, when I was terrified and hoping no one would see my nervous sweat-stains on my Lilly dress. But you, and all the other girls, made me feel at home. The conversations weren't superficial, and everyone was so down-to-earth. I knew this is where I wanted to be for the rest of my college years. I know you had this feeling, too, and it's incredible that our organization has brought us together in this way.
I remember getting clues during Big-Little week and hoping that you were my Big. I wasn't sure if the written clues were true or not, and I definitely Facebook stalked you to see if you matched any of them. When the day of Big-Little reveal finally arrived, and I opened that door, I was so excited to see you on the other side. Since then, we've grown together, laughed together, and cried together (well, mainly me at initiation).
I'm going to miss late-night drives to Wal-Mart, getting McFlurries, and obsessing over everything Lilly. I'm going to miss coming back to the quad after a long and stressful day, watching "Say Yes To The Dress," and eating candy until we pass out. I'm going to miss walking to commons with you and eating every single dessert together after vehemently repeating that "our diets will start tomorrow." I'm going to miss spending all of our sorority "holidays," like Bid's Day, Founder's Day, and Initiation, with you. They won't be the same without you, and I'm surely going to miss my go-to photo buddy.
I know it's going to be much different for you after graduation, because our sorority will no longer be so physically close to you. But I want you to know that this sisterhood extends far beyond our chapter, and it follows you wherever you choose to go. So whether it be through Skype or monthly weekend visits to the quad (please?) I know that we'll keep in touch and continue to support each other through thick and thin.You truly have a piece of my heart and whenever I hear the words Delta Gamma, memories of us come flooding into my mind. I'm so very lucky to have met you, and I know that our friendship and sisterhood will last a lifetime.
