I just don't tell you this enough

A letter to my best friends saying everything I know I should say.

So I'm gonna start off by saying, I'm not a perfect friend. I realize many of you may be shocked by this but I'm not. I can be rude, crass, way too honest, and just down right mean; but I can also be supportive, passionate, and loving. So here's a glimpse to that side of me. Here are some things I really don't tell ya'll enough:

I love you

I do, I really do. I am ungrateful at times because you do so much for me that I just expect it but I do love you more than anything in this world.

Thank you

You guys are everything to me. You help me when I fall down, you pick up all the pieces even when you knew it would happen. So thank you, from the deepest parts of me for everything that you do.

You are amazing

Some of my friends know and believe this about themselves, but for those of you who don't here you go. I can't tell you enough just how amazing you are. You are so much more than what you see in yourself. You're not just someone there to pick up the pieces, you are wonderfully created to be the amazing person that you are. You're incredibly talented in several ways, some of you are incredible singers, some of you have a passion to help others, and some of you are just the best type of friend there is. Please always remember that you are more incredible than what you believe about yourself and that I think you're incredible.

I know I'm annoying

I do realize that I can be a bit... demanding. I just try to push each of you to be the absolute best you can be. If I take the time to be your friend and put the effort in to talk to you I realize that at some point I'm going to annoy you. I'm fully aware of that, but thanks for sticking around anyway.

I see potential in you

As many of you know, I don't really like spending time around people because they always disappoint. So if I am friends with you I believe that you have the potential to do amazing things and I fully intend to push you every step of the way there.

So to my friends, I know I should say all of these things more often, but I don't and I suck for here. Read this and remember it all the time even if I'm not being the greatest friend in that moment.

Love always,

The friend who doesn't deserve you.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

LaGrange College

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
