An Open Letter To My Sorority Sisters

Thank you for making my college experience the best one possible.

Dear Sissys,

I have no idea where to begin, I guess I’ll start by saying I will miss you all when I graduate and I will have so many endless memories to remember every single one of you by. I will forever cherish seeing your faces everyday even when we were on vacation, the long and endless nights, the occasional fights and outbursts of affection, and the little things that make each and everyone of you unique. I have so much to cherish and thank you all for.

So thank you. Thank you for making my life better and brighter. Thank you for taking me in and accepting me exactly how I am. Thank you for making me a part of something out of this world. Thank you for giving me the best big sister and little sisters that I could have asked for. Thank you for being there for me during my most difficult times. Thank you for being the sisters that I never had and becoming my second family.

I am graduating soon, but I know that I can count on you for the rest of my life and know that you can count on me as well. I can honestly say that you all have made me a better person and have changed my life for the best. My life was simple and dull before I met all of you, each and everyone have brought something new into my life. You all inspire me to be a better person and to become stronger and fearless.

I will miss bumping into one of you everywhere I went in school. I will miss so many things but I know that each and everyone of you have an amazing future ahead of you. Every single one of you have showed me the importance of being in a sorority, of being in a sisterhood. You girls have showed me that being in a sorority is more than the three letters you wear on your chest. You girls have showed me that being in a sorority is a way of life, it is about change and respect.

No one will truly understand what it is like to have so many amazing sisters unless they have been in my shoes. The saying is true, “From the outside looking in, you can never understand it. From the inside looking out, you can never explain it.”

My time to hang up my letters and walk out into the world of adulthood is coming very soon, but I will forever cherish our memories and crazy moments. I will soon be an alumni but I will always be there for each and everyone of you like you have been there for me.

Thank You for everything my fellow Kappa Theta Nu sisters, there will always be a place in my heart for every single one of you.

Sincerely,

Your Greek Sister By Chance, But Friend By Choice

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1074

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Because you need it in your life.
