Delta Gamma's 3rd Annual Do Good Week
NKU Delta Gamma

"Do Good" is more than a Delta Gamma's motto; to me it is everything. Day to day I live to continue to this ideal. Even in the smallest way, I try to do good.

For the third year, Delta Gamma is hosting their "Do Good Week". This event goes from September 11 to 17. This event is for more than just Delta Gammas. It is promoted to everyone to Do Good and make the world a better place. These acts of kindness can be as big or as small as you would like. In the end it is about consciously doing good.

To give you some ideas here is a list of good deeds: (courtesy of www.deltagamma,org)

• Pay for the person behind you at a drive thru or in line.

• Take an unfamiliar colleague or classmate to lunch.

• Write a sincere note of appreciation.

• Plant a tree or garden.

• Deliver baked goods to your local fire/police department.

• Pick up trash in your neighborhood or local park.

• Plan a service event and invite other sisters and friends to participate.

• Take flowers to patients at a hospital.

• Volunteer at a food pantry.

• Visit an assisted living facility and talk to a resident who hasn’t had many visitors.

• Write letters to military personnel and thank them for their service.

• Volunteer at your local humane society, or another local non-profit.

• Donate items to Goodwill or a similar organization.

• Organize a food drive.

• Bike to work/class.

• Simply, be kind to everyone.

Delta Gamma just wants us all to do good and leave the world a little better than we left it.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
