As summertime is coming to a close, classes are soon to begin. This upcoming fall semester will be the beginning of my sophomore year.

Freshmen year was quite difficult for me. With the broken heart, losing friends, and being lost I did not know how to handle life. Once I found my Big, everything turned around for me. She held my hand when I needed, but also gave me a good smack on the head when I needed to pull it together. If it wasn't for her, my college experience would have went to crap.

Now, I have moved out and am living with my two roommates. I pay bills, and work my life away through out this past summer. With Freshman year behind me and all of the things that I have learned this past year, I can say I am excited to see what Sophomore year holds and I am predicting DCP, Sigma, and whole bunch of ice cream runs.

DCP stands for the Disney College Program. As many people in my life will tell you, Disney is my passion and my love. The first time I had learned about the DCP was my senior year of high school, and instantly dreamed of the day that I could become a student of the this amazing program. The program would bring me to knew heights, allow me to be at my favorite place in the world (Disney Parks), while meeting some of the most amazing people. I am hoping when I apply in the next couple of weeks, that I will be heading to either California or Orlando in the spring semester as a student to the DCP.

Sigma is short for Sigma Sigma Chi. Sigma is one of two social sororities on my college campus at Southwestern Oklahoma State University. I pledged to Sigma the fall of my freshman year, and that was how I met my Big, my best friend in the entire world. I said earlier, she has changed my life. I never knew there was someone in the world like her. Her name is Krisha (I know right, even her name is cool). I never had thought about me being a sorority girl. But me rushing Sigma was one of the best decisions I have made in the past year. And this semester is a huge deal because I will be getting Little(s)! With the way Krisha has helped me, I hope that I will be able to help out my Little in the same manner.

And of course late night ice cream runs are a must for me. Ice cream is my favorite dessert and always makes me feel better about life. Whenever I am stressed, Krisha and I either go to Braum's or go over to the local Walmart and get gallon. Normally, whenever there is ice cream means Hercules is soon to follow. Hercules is one of our favorite Disney movies. We know every word and sing along with the Muses.

Sophomore year is nerve raking because I am a year closer to being a true adult and having a profession that I worked hard for. I am excited for the mistakes, learning, and memories I'll make this year.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
