What To Look For During Sorority Recruitment
Wikipedia

In just a couple of months, it will be that exciting time of the school year when we get to recruit new sorority members who will become initiates, best friends, and sisters. One of the choices in happiest that I made in college was the choice to join a sorority.


Recruitment can be very intimidating, especially if you're like I was. No idea what to expect, and not really sure what you're looking for. After the entire experience, I can say I would do it the same way, and would graciously choose AXiD again and again. It's my home and pride.


To any girl who is considering joining a chapter at their college, I say go for it. Even if it turns at that it's not for you, it never hurts to try to be a part of something big that can change your life and give you the opportunity to benefit others.

No matter what chapter you think you belong to, go through with an open mind. I had an idea of where I wanted to be, but everything changed that weekend. Now I can't picture myself anywhere else.

If I had to give anyone advice for this experience, I would tell them to just be themselves and enjoy the attention and time you have to meet new people. You don't get an experience like this every day.


What you need to look for is your home, the chapter that you feel you can easily click with and can see yourself growing in. After just two days you'll know who you can see calling your sisters. I hope you consider taking advantage of this opportunity and find your Greek home and family!

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.
