10 Beautiful Things Around Me

Please don't forget about these

This is Colossal

We all have some of our favorite things and I have so many beautiful things around me. Don't forget to take a moment to embrace the beauty around you.

1. The Sky

What did we ever do to deserve the sky? Cotton candy sunrises, golden sunsets, etc. The sky is a precious thing that really needs to be appreciated.

2. Collages

My favorite thing in the world to do is sit down, cut pictures out of an old National Geographic, and make a collage. Please try it.

3. Old postcards

The lost art form of communication. Go to any antique store and get some old postcards, they're beautiful and touching. I've had the pleasure of coming across a few love notes, and I trade some with my friends.

4. People

People are the absolute worst, and the absolute loveliest things I have ever encountered. When I hug my siblings, when I watch my friend's face light up, etc. The amazing depth to every individual, and how we can truly bond so well. That is my favorite things.

5. Watercolor paint

The best art medium.

6. Hot chocolate

Of course.

7. Books

These things are absolutely fantastic.

8. Mountains

Majestic, gorgeous wonders of nature. My absolute favorite place to be.

9. Playlists

Lovely compilations of your favorite songs. So perfect.

10. Moms

Hey mom.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

LaGrange College

Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
