A Thank You Letter To My Pledge Sisters

The sisters I've never had, the best friends that I never knew I needed.

A Thank You Letter To My Pledge Sisters

Dear crazy, beautiful, awesome pledge sisters,

We came to all meet at a time where none of us really knew each other or even ourselves. From the time that we were first introduced to each other as a pledge class, I knew that it was going to be a wild ride. Pledging itself was a time that we all became closer than any of group of girls really should and began to learn every single amazing and annoying thing about each other. Those first few weeks prepared us for a life full of a friendship and sisterhood. We’ve seen each other at our worst, and we still manage to love each other through it all, which is the greatest gift of all.

Through every breakup, annoying drunk fight, and every girl who has pissed us off, we have each other’s backs. I know I can come to any of you with any stupid little rant, and you’ll listen even when I’m being over dramatic. It’s slightly disgusting how unified we are, especially when we shun someone’s ex as a group, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Even though we aren’t all together anymore, you will all always have a place in my heart. You girls are the sisters I never had and the best friends that I never knew I needed. You are my people. No matter how annoying we are, especially when we insist on trying to all fit on the stage at the bar when our song comes on, I wouldn’t want to have it any other way. I’ve seen you all grow into the people you are today, and you’ve shaped me into the person I’ve become. I’m glad we have our embarrassing past selves to laugh at together, and I’m glad that we aren’t afraid to make any more embarrassing memories.

We've done college so right, even when we've been so wrong. So here’s to more nights of raising hell at frat houses, here’s to the drunk group pictures we’ll take, and the times we’ll all stay up too late reminiscing about when we first became pledge sisters. Although we’re getting older, and we’re running out of time where these behaviors are acceptable, I know that you will all be in my life for a very long time.

So here is my thank-you. Thank you for always being down to get pizza with me after the bars. Thank you for reminding me I can’t wear boots with a skater skirt. Thank you for drinking cheap champagne with me and dancing around our sorority house. Thank you for the honest advice that I always needed. Thank you for making me laugh until I cry. But most importantly, thank you for loving me and being my support system. Always remember, we’ve got the world and nothing can stop us.

So much love,

Your Pledge Sister

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.
