Recruitment is a stressful time for practically any girl that decides to join a sorority. After watching video after video and reading article after article filled with tips that follow with rush, it doesn't make the feeling any better. When most girls decide to go through recruitment, finding the perfect advice can be nearly impossible. Here are five of the best tips I found when preparing to rush at Arizona State University.

Dress like yourself.

Recruitment is all about finding a group of girls that like you for you. One of the most essential parts of meeting a new person is your outside appearance. Dress for the theme, but match it with yourself too. You want to make sure the girls like you for you.

Keep a positive spirit.

Fate already has a plan for you and where you will end up. Letting yourself get hurt over which sorority dropped you simply isn't worth your time. Keep a smile on your face and embrace where ever recruitment leads you.

Don't put pressure on making a conversation flow well.

When a sorority is a perfect fit for you, conversations will flow easily and personalities will click. The girls are people too. Putting pressure on making a conversation flow never ends up working out in the end as you are trying to actually make a friendship happen, not interviewing for a job position.

Trust the process.

I know. So stereotypical, but actually quite true. Recruitment is a long process for a reason. The system is built to help you form natural relationships with girls within different sororities and to help you find the girls that you click with the most. Putting faith into the process makes the time much more enjoyable and leads to great outcomes.

Have fun!

The days may seem long and getting ready early in the morning every day may be a challenge, but the end result will make everything all worth it. Get pumped, make friends, enjoy plenty of caffeine, and jump right into the wave.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo
