A Letter To My Friend In Heaven

To my sweet friend who gained her wings too soon,

It is never easy to lose someone close to you. Most of us have experienced the pain of losing a loved one. It doesn’t matter if it was expected or not, the pain still hurts the same. Sometimes it’s hard to express our feelings when we go through the stages of grief, but it can be very beneficial to find an outlet for your feelings. It’s important to find a way to honor and remember your angel in heaven.

It never gets easier without you. They say that time heals all wounds, but that is not the case. It has been almost two years since you gained your wings, but the pain of losing you is still heavy on my heart. Some days are harder than others, but the pain never really goes away.

I miss you. Not a day goes by that I don’t yearn to give you a big hug and see that beautiful smile of yours. I miss you more than my words can even describe. I would do anything to give you one more hug. I miss our talks, the laughs, spending time with you, and everything else about you.

I hope that I make you proud. Many things that I have done in life are because of you. I want to do things that would make you proud. There are things that I would have never done in life, but you inspired me to step out of my comfort zone. I want to make you proud in everything I do.

You still have an impact on me. Your life was short, but you lived every day to the fullest. You inspired me to be the best version of myself and to live each day like it is my last. I think of you and your fighting spirit when I’m going through a tough time, and you still inspire me to pick myself up and keep pushing on.

I will never forget you. There is no way that I could ever forget about you. You are not someone I could just forget about. You had such a huge impact on my life. I think about you every single day. You are constantly on my mind. I promise that you will never be forgotten.

You hold a special place in my heart. You hold a place in my heart that will be there forever. That place in my heart is a whole that only you can fill. I carry you in my heart because you are so special to me. I love you so much. You will forever be one of my best friends even if you are in heaven now.

I can’t wait to see you again. The one thing that helped me deal with the pain of losing you was thinking about the moment that I’ll get to see you again in Heaven. I take comfort in that. I know you are having a grand party up in Heaven and one day I will get to join you up there.

In memory of my angel in Heaven, Unique Barnes.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

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.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
