An Open Letter To My Sorority Sisters

I wear my letters on my front because I know my sisters have my back

An Open Letter To My Sorority Sisters
Tessa Giamberdino

Dear Sisters,

If you were to tell me a year ago that I would be a member of a sorority, I wouldn’t have believed you. Before arriving here, I had never really thought about myself as a “sorority girl,” but now I couldn’t think of myself as not being one. Not a day goes by where I regret joining your sisterhood.

Thank you sisters for accepting me from the moment I walked into the house on the first day of recruitment. There has never been a time in our house where I haven’t felt comfortable being me. I always know that I can go to any one of you and have a heart to heart conversation about anything that is going on without judgement. I know that I can count on all of you to be there for me in times of hardship as well as times of joy and excitement, and I hope that you all know that I will do the same for you. Thank you for helping me become a sister in your house.

Thank you for being my second family. Growing up, I had never really been away from home for any long period of time, so coming to college was a big step for me. I was unsure if I would like it because I wouldn’t have my family in the same place as me for the first time in my life. From the first day of recruitment, I saw the bond that was held between all of you and I knew that was something I wanted here. Even in the short amount of time that I have been a part of your sisterhood, I have already begun to feel that bond forming with each of you and I am excited to watch and feel it grow even stronger throughout my time as an Alpha Chi, so thank you! But most importantly, thank you for making me feel welcomed into your family even before I was fully and officially in it. Thank you for giving me forever sisters. I have met some of my very best friends through joining your sorority, and I know that these girls will always be in my life, whether they are present in person or just present in my heart.

Joining your sorority has been one of the best decisions that I have ever made. “Though time may pass, our sisterhood will last.”

LITB

Your Sister

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
