You mean everything to us.

To My Graduating Sorority Sisters
Sorority Sugar

Dear beautiful seniors,

I really don't know where to start. Honestly, I just can't believe that it's time for us to send you off. I foolishly denied that being an adult was required at some point in life and that college sorority life somehow lasted forever. I assumed that we would always be having dinner together after meeting, movie nights in the house, and glittering up for Greek week and homecoming together forever. But that's not how it is. You have to go out and be an adult, and as much as I need to be OK with that, I'm not. Actually, none of us are. I want to scream and tell you to stay, but I'll hold that inside if you promise to hear me out.

You all are shining stars in our eyes. Please never forget that. You helped our chapter soar to new heights in scholarship, philanthropy, and most importantly, sisterhood. You have supported us through our best and worst moments as a chapter, and for that, we are all grateful. You have no idea how special you are to each and every one of us.

We aren't ready for you to go, but we are so proud of you as you prepare to walk across that stage with your cap and gown. We are proud of how far you have come, and how far that we know you will go. These past years have been fantastic, but now it's time to let you share your beautiful souls with the rest of the world.

Do what you need to do. We know you are each going to change the world. So go ahead and go to grad school, get that dream job, travel the world, anything you want. Don't sell yourself short because we all know that you deserve absolutely nothing less than the best. Live with grace. Live with purpose. Live your dreams.

When you have a bad day in your beautiful office, or wherever your dreams take you, we hope that you look back and think of us. We hope you remember all of the smiles you gave us and how much of an inspiration that you are to each and every one of us. You are never alone. When you get lost in life, remember our values. Remember what drove you to this organization and what made you stay. And most importantly, call us. We will continue to support you through all of your future adventures. Sisterhood is not just for four years, but for life.

Please never think that you will not be missed next year. You will always be in our mind as we bring in new sisters, participate in our campus events and much more. Your positive spirit will loom over us as we continue to make our sisterhood as great as it can be.

If you forget all but one thing, please remember that you will always and forever be our sister and that we love you more than words can say.

This is not goodbye, just "see you later".

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
