The 10 real things that happen during sorority recruitment, as told by Parks and Recreation.

1. You'll be doing rounds for hours.

On your feet, cheering, screaming, chatting. Probably in heels. And the house will get really hot with so many girls talking and moving.

2. You'll talk to a girl who you can immediately see as your little, and you'll see yourself making crafts for her and taking line pictures together.

3. And then you'll talk to some girls that make five minutes seem like 20 years.

4. You'll have early days and late nights and will do pretty much anything to stay awake.

5.You'll be in selection for hours on end, and after the first few rounds, it will seem like you won't make it out of selection before graduation.

6. But somehow you'll find yourself listening to every comment about every girl, because you want everyone to end up in the right place (like you did).

7. You'll keep some girls you really liked throughout the rounds, and you'll hope each round that they stay through to the end.


8. And you'll lose some great girls to other sororities.

9. When it's all over, you'll feel like you've found the perfect group of girls, and that all your outfit swaps, late nights and junk food binges were worth it.

10. Most importantly, though, in spending so much time with your sisters, you'll really understand why you chose your sorority, and you'll become closer with so many girls you didn't know well beforehand.


In the words of Tom Haverford, "Sometimes you gotta work a little, so you can ball a lot."

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.
