The Rush Of Prepping For Sorority Recruitment, As Told By Elle Woods

In This Article:

August and September are typically the busiest months for college women in Greek life. It almost seems like every little decision or consideration comes back to the fact that soon we'll be welcoming new sisters. I know Elle Woods would be able to pull together an amazing recruitment, so let's turn to her to see what the month leading up to new sisters is like!

1. Planning decorations and themes

Giphy

She's not afraid of failing. Delta Nu would have the best themes!

2. Choosing a lipstick to match your recruitment dress

Giphy

Pink lipstick all the way. For any dress.

3. Needing to get away from the craziness after a long day with your sisters

Giphy

For Elle, it's chocolates. For me, it'd be pizza.

4. "Are you stressed and overwhelmed?"

Luckily, you have other people to dump your stress on.

5. Getting sassy when picking out your recruitment dress

Nope, not taking it.

6. Listening to other's past recruitment horror stories

It's always good to make sure the awkward doesn't happen again.

7. When people finally get the hang of "bumping"

Giphy

For those who don't know, "bumping" is a term for transitioning between two sisters when talking to a PNM. Woohoo!

8. Practicing house tours

Giphy

If only we were all so confident.

9. The important pep talks over spirit week

Giphy

Faith in yourself = confidence transferred to your new sisters!

Happy recruitment prep-month, everyone!

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.
