Sisters of Chi Omega,

I never knew how much this experience would change my life. From fall recruitment every moment was great. I remember the two sisters, Carlee and Courtney, that were so kind and made me feel welcome. The spaghetti dinner at the house with Allison H. and several others really made me feel like this is where I belong. When Kassi called me it was the best feeling to know that my future sisters felt the same way. I got that feeling of being at home. Last semester was so much fun with the lip sync battle and the practices that came before it. It was fun trying to concentrate on our Party In The USA dance moves while watching my love, Anthony Rizzo, at bat on TV during the World Series. Shyann, Carlee and the new members were so much fun to perform with. We had so much determination and enthusiasm that we won a crown board for the social media portion of the contest. It was a blast. It was great to see so many sisters come out to support us.

The new member educator, Ashley KZ, was the biggest help. She showed each of us the ways and teachings of Chi Omega. She probably answered about one thousand questions just from me. Without her, new members would be lost in the sauce.

The clues during big little reveal week were killing me. I struggled so much trying to figure out who my big would be. I said minutes before the reveal that I knew it wouldn't be Lexi because of her major. I cried my eyes out when I found out she lied to me and it was her all along. She has been the best big anyone could ask for. We crafted our awesome coolers and made each other owl boards. We spent so much time together and she even helped me move across the country after I graduated. Lexi, Brooke, and I went to throwing Thursday on campus and got to create many things from clay. Brooke, I love your dinosaurs.

I never thought having socials with fraternities would be so much fun to be honest. The social with DU was a blast. I felt like I really got to bond with my sisters and actually let loose and dance a little. Especially the congo line we made to go with our theme.

I also really enjoyed fall leadership conference and how our small group from Chi O stuck together to learn as a group with Rosetta, Jalyn, Courtney, Alexandria, and Carlee. The Thanksgiving sisterhood was great... too bad I didn't get any of that elote. That's okay though, since then I had some and it was good. Kyaking with you after homecoming was so peaceful and relaxing. It was like all of the stress from the week before floated away in the water.

Bowling in matching outfits with my big while we were hanging out with the tri sigmas was fun. My bowling skills may not be the best, but it was enjoyable. I couldn't bowl if my life depended on it.

I got to spend time with some of the coolest new members like Marrion, who is bold and fun, Lauren, Laura, Citali, Yasmeen, who isn't afraid to be herself, and Leanne. I also got to spend time with Montana, who I knew from day one would be there for me. The senior dinner was fun to really get to know some of the sisters I didn't get to bond with much before like Daniella, Kristen, and Lindsay and Maddie. The last few days of seeing some other sisters and spending time with them was also great like Allison D and Aya.

I love how Chi Omega really briged the gap between new members and actives and how they worked hard to get us to get to know each other. It was great to feel included and to feel informed.

I love how our sorority is so diverse and each of you have been so welcoming to me. It's crazy how close I got to all of you in such a short amount of time. I want to thank all of you for the best semester of my college years. You can miss me for a bit but I will be back soon, so don't miss me too much. I love my sisters and I love Chi O.
