So you and your parents have successfully moved you into your brand new jail cell dorm room...

And you went through rush week and it probably went something like this:

And you ran from house to house like:

But then bid day came around and you looked about as happy as Tom Brady winning the super bowl... again.

Now you have all your new sisters and you're throwing up your new hand signs while wearing your new jersey...

You screamed your new letters and put them in every bio on every social media platform.

You got your bid day big and she starts teaching you all the ropes.

As time passes, you get ready to go to your first swap... but first, you go to the pregame.

It's all fun and games until you realize it's just a bunch of sweaty freshman grinding on each other but you don't really care... because you're too intoxicated to care.

Your big looks at you across the band room like:

Because she sees you finally talking to that boy from your geography lecture that you've been in love with since the first day of class.

You learn to realize that the sorority you pledged isn't all partying and it's really all worth it. You find amazing friends and it's more than you could ever ask for.

You wave your letters around because they mean just that much to you.

You get excited because you finally get to experience football season and you even get a cute little button that says "XYZ loves the ____."

Then, when you finally get initiated, it's one of the best things ever. You feel so connected with thousands of other women.

You come out of initiation like...

because you're finally active and no longer have to follow the cup rule and now you can get on raised surfaces...

Then at your first swap after initiation, you fall off of a raised surface and face plant like...

But you took it like a champ.

And standards and your former new member educator look at you like:

And you go to your first sisterhood event and truly bond with your sisters.

Sometime in between, you have a date party/date function and you manage to find yourself a date and you feel like a boss.

You also get to go to your first philanthropy event and realize that you do have to do work but it's all worth it because you love your foundation.

It's the end of the semester and you realize that you have to leave everyone you love and all of your friends.

But then someone reminds you about spring semester darties and all is well.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
