Hi friends!

As a new writer here at The Odyssey, I wanted to make my first appearance by introducing myself and my life to my readers, so here it goes...

I'm Emalee, and I am a college freshman studying Public Relations at the prettiest little university in south Georgia. I am a member of the newest pledge class of the Kappa Mu chapter of Phi Mu here at Georgia Southern, and I have already realized in such a short amount of time just how blessed I am to be apart of such an incredible organization.

I have always heard that God brings about things in our lives at just the right moments, and I can't believe that to be any more true. Because of Phi Mu I am inspired everyday to be the very best version of myself and to always see the very best in others. I am constantly reminded why I fell in love with Phi Mu the first day of rush and why I will continue to love it forever.

Family is another huge part of my life, and because of them I believe that I completely personify the definition of a "home body." Thank goodness I am only an hour away from my sweet home, Savannah, because I'm just not sure what I'd do if day trips home weren't an option.

I'm a firm believer that hometown best friends are of the upmost importance to having a happy and fulfilled life. Although we are separated among 7 different cities, 3 different states, & 8 different schools, I know that we can always count on each other, and for that I am very grateful.

I feel as though growing up in a city as beautiful as Savannah is almost unfair. I have always been in love with the city, and now that I am off at school I have begun to appreciate it even more. If you haven't been able to experience a summer night's sunset at AJ's Dockside, I seriously suggest you consider placing it at the top of you bucket list.

Along with my writing for The Odyssey, I also spend my time running my own blog (http://withlovefromemalee.blogspot.com/) and tumblr (http://withlovefromemalee.tumblr.com/). I absolutely love the idea of inspiring others through my words and photographs -- my ultimate dream would be to eventually pursue this in my career.

Together, all of these little things contribute to the person I am today. I am so very thankful for all that I have been blessed with, and I am so very excited for what the future holds for me.

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. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. 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.
