A Love Letter To Phi Sigma Sigma
Beth Weeks

Dearest Phi Sigma Sigma,

I love you. There's no other way to put it. You've inspired me to be the greatest version of myself while giving me thousands of sisters around the world. Thanks to you, I have a creed to live by and sisters that will always have my back. I never thought Greek Life was for me until I walked into a room full of Phi Sigma Sigma women.

I could never thank you enough. From all the hours helping philanthropies to just hanging out, every second made an impact on my life and made me who I am. Phi Sigma Sigma women are all unique, but together they make something awesome and irreplaceable.

"I believe a woman who serves is a woman who leads" - Phi Sigma Sigma teaches women that being a leader comes with serving and helping others, whether that's your sisters or a person in need.

"I will devote myself at all times to upholding the ideals of Phi Sigma Sigma." - A constant reminder to aim high and strive to be a woman of substance, character and influence.

"I believe in faith, love, and sincerity." - Faith, love and sincerity are things our world needs more of, how great is it to find an entire group of women trying to promote them.

"I will find strength in the lifelong friendships I share in the bonds of our sisterhood." - Truth. Every sister is a wonderful person. I have special memories with each woman from my chapter. I know that in 10 years when life is rough, I will have friends to help me and 30 other shoulders to cry on. They know your best and worst, and love you regardless.

"I believe in the advancement of womanhood." - Phi Sigma Sigma believes in building women up, not tearing them down. We don't support any negativity towards others, but in helping them rise to new heights. Supporting the advancement of womanhood in a world that makes it difficult is a truly beautiful thing.

"I will make the most of educational opportunities throughout my life and will become a woman of substance, character, and influence." - I love our entire Creed, but this seals the deal. Inspiring women to become educated and strive for great qualities is so amazing. I know that without Phi Sigma Sigma, I would have never made it as far as I have. I owe everything to them. I will be striving everyday to be a woman of substance, character and influence. The same can be said of every Phi Sigma Sigma woman.

"I believe in the perpetuity of Phi Sigma Sigma." - Phi Sigma Sigma is instilled in so many wonderful women that it will never fade away. Phi Sigma Sigma will last until the end of time, or so I really hope.

"I will build to the walls of the pyramid." - Each sister builds to the pyramid in their own unique way. It is beautiful, and it makes each chapter who they are.

I'm an alumnae of this wonderful organization, and I still cannot shut up about it. Phi Sigma Sigma has helped so many women through various things. From difficult family issues, to illness, and to typical college mental breakdowns. Our rituals, our sisterhood and our memories will always live on. I thought I may feel differently after graduating, but I thought wrong.

"Once a Phi Sigma Sigma, Always a Phi Sigma Sigma."

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
