Chi Omega is my sisterhood and I wouldn't want it any other way.

The friends you make along the way

Personally, I made so many friends, especially in my rush group, and it was so cool to meet so many more people that I might not have met another way.

The connections you make

Some of the connections I made during rush with my now sisters are ones that I would not trade for the world. I think it's so cool how you can just automatically click with someone you just met and it was definitely one of my favorite parts of the whole process.

You have excuses to look cute, even if your feet are killing from your heels

Honestly, I love getting all dressed up and cute to go places so I didn't mind the dress codes, but I did have some nasty blisters from the shoes I decided to wear. It's OK though because I looked cute!

The opportunities that really are endless

Through sororities, and Greek life in general, there are so many opportunities that allow for leadership, creativity, the list could go on and on. I think it is so important to take advantage of all the opportunities your organization has to offer, I know I will be.

Greek events

Especially at URI, the events such as greek week and individual sorority/fraternity events are so much fun. I cannot wait until Greek Week already and I know that it's everyone's favorite week of the year!

Having a place to now go to when you need to relax

I feel so welcome at my sorority's house now, even if I'm just having a bad day or want to see my sisters. I think that it's super important to have a place that you really can call home and go to when you need some extra love.

Finally, BID DAY!

I had watched videos of bid day pretty much all of high school so I was SO excited to finally experience it myself. And I absolutely loved every minute of it. There were some points where I didn't feel like it was real but I will always remember my bid day as one of my favorite days ever.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
