Sisterhood, Justice, and Love
Gloria Angela Santos Ibarra

Going into university I never thought I would join a sorority but come my spring semester of my first year and I am going to the recruitment parties and staying up to wait and hear if I have been invited back and next thing I know I am being initiated in as a new member. Though I never thought that I would be a sorority girl I am so glad I decided to go through recruitment and joined Delta Phi Epsilon for many reasons but here are a few.

They are a support system

Having sisters that you can count on to be there for you at any time is one of the best feelings in the world. Being away from home can be hard at times especially if you don't have a support system at school. Whenever I need someone to vent to or to laugh with or even cry to I have that. If I'm ever feeling down or I just need to be around someone my sisters are just a call away. I dont even need to tell them at times, they just know and offer This goes both ways and I hope all my sisters know that whatever and whenever they need me I'm there for them just like they are for me.

They give me confidence

I have never felt so accepted than when I joined the sorority. I have never been one to have much self confidence and still don't but with these girls I have truly gained much more than I have ever had. Whenever I look down on myself they are always there tell me not to say things like that. They have accepted me for who I am and that's a good feeling. They say nothing but positive things and make sure you always feel great. When you have an empowering group of girls telling you that you are

They believe in me

Since joining I feel like I have my own hype man because I now have a group of girls cheering me on in anything I do. It gives me the confidence to go for things I normally would not. I feel I can achieve anything I set out to do whether that be in school, work, or my personal life. knowing I have these girls backing me up helps me go for it.

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.
