One of the scariest feelings in the world is being an incoming freshman and going through Sorority Recruitment. It doesn't matter how much you think you’re prepared, because when that first round of icebreakers comes, everything you thought you knew becomes irrelevant, and you’re on your own to tackle a few days of stress, awkward conversations, multiple breakdowns, and in the end, Bid Day; the greatest day of your life. Luckily, Dwight may be able to help you through it all.

1. Trying on different outfits the night before the first day, trying to make sure your look perfectly describes who you are

2. Walking in to your first round, all excited about finding your new home

3. When you’re trying to talk to the girl rushing you, but there’s 200 people packed into a tiny room trying to do the same

4. After the first day and you’re so tired and have lost your voice, and remember you have to do this all over again tomorrow

5. The next day when you're talking to a girl at a house you like, and think really hard about every word you say to her

6. When you start to get a little more comfortable, and start testing to see if the house you're at seems like a good fit

7. On Sisterhood day, and the girl tells you a *super* funny story of her and her sisters shenanigans, but you have no idea what she's talking about

8. When a house you really liked drops you...

9. On Pref day when you're talking to the girl you totally could see being your big, and you try to keep the fact that you're obsessed with her on the low...

10. By the end of the week, and your face hurts so bad from smiling all week

11. When it's FINALLY Bid Day, and you get a bid from the sorority you loved

12. Finally, after Bid Day with all your new sisters, and you realize you have found your new home


And just like Dwight, by the end of the week, you will have found your forever home, and that all the stress was worth it because of you're amazing new sisters!

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.
