An Open Letter To My Sisters

Dear Alpha Gamma Delta, I have spent a semester being apart of this giant family. I have loved everyone single minute of it! On bid day, I made an awkward and untimely appearance and began immediately started making memories with you all. It was that day that I met one of my best friends and my Big, who I will treasure forever. I didn’t know that I would end up here, so in love with all of you.

I didn’t know a single person on a bid day, and I’m so happy that I now know the names of eighty of my favorite people at this school. I don’t know how I would have gotten through my first semester without all of you; it was my first time away from home and my classes were hard. But you all believed in me, always, and pushed me to do better and try harder.

No matter what was going on, I could find someone willing to listen and help me. Several people, most of the time. I am never unsure about my friendships or about the love that we all share, it is as true as true could be. We have one of the strongest sisterhoods and I am so thankful for this system of support. At the sisterhood retreat as we all sat around that bonfire and everyone shared their stories of love and friendship in this chapter, I felt so at home and comfortable with all of you.

I am definitely sure I have found my bridesmaids in this chapter and I am so grateful for the friends and bonds that it has given me. It’s given me some pretty cool leadership and service opportunities too. I am only getting more excited as the year goes on and I am so excited to welcome more girls into this sisterhood. I hope that everyone gets to experience this kind of friendship, love, and support from their chapter. I know that most of my favorite memories will happen in this chapter with my sisters and I will cherish them and all of you forever, even if you move to Disney World or graduate (and stay).

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.
