Hey, Soul (Sorority) Sisters

To the sisters I love dearly.

Hey, Soul (Sorority) Sisters

Going into college, I would have never thought I would join Greek life. After my first semester I decided I would go check it out. After "Meet the Greeks" I learned a lot about some of the sisters and saw how close they were.

After going through, I got my bid. I have never been more happy about something. Some people join Greek life to have the letters on their chest and the label as a "sorority girl" or "fraternity guy." There is a lot more to it than that. From starting, I already have become more of an outgoing person and go out of my way to get more involved around campus and in the sorority.

I finished my first semester as an official sister, and I couldn't have been more happy. Some of the most amazing memories already were getting my amazing big, formal, and bounce. Getting my big was one of the most amazing feelings i have ever encountered in my life. I wouldn't have wanted anybody else as my big. She is the greatest person I've met, and we already have so many amazing memories together and so many things in common. One thing I can tell someone who is looking into Greek life is: don't look for a big that looks like they have the money, go for someone that is going to help you become a better woman in the world, one that will be there for you and will keep everything you guys have talked about between you guys, then you will find yourself the perfect big like I did. I love my big and my family line so so much.

Long story short, I am so happy I joined Greek life. It has helped me so much and made me such a better person already. I have so many amazing memories and new friends because of it. Much love to my sisters in my sorority; I would be very lost if it wasn't for all of you guys. #AnchorsUp

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.

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.
