Going into university I never thought I would join a sorority but come my spring semester of my first year and I am going to the recruitment parties and staying up to wait and hear if I have been invited back and next thing I know I am being initiated in as a new member. Though I never thought that I would be a sorority girl I am so glad I decided to go through recruitment and joined Delta Phi Epsilon for many reasons but here are a few.

They are a support system

Having sisters that you can count on to be there for you at any time is one of the best feelings in the world. Being away from home can be hard at times especially if you don't have a support system at school. Whenever I need someone to vent to or to laugh with or even cry to I have that. If I'm ever feeling down or I just need to be around someone my sisters are just a call away. I dont even need to tell them at times, they just know and offer This goes both ways and I hope all my sisters know that whatever and whenever they need me I'm there for them just like they are for me.

They give me confidence

I have never felt so accepted than when I joined the sorority. I have never been one to have much self confidence and still don't but with these girls I have truly gained much more than I have ever had. Whenever I look down on myself they are always there tell me not to say things like that. They have accepted me for who I am and that's a good feeling. They say nothing but positive things and make sure you always feel great. When you have an empowering group of girls telling you that you are

They believe in me

Since joining I feel like I have my own hype man because I now have a group of girls cheering me on in anything I do. It gives me the confidence to go for things I normally would not. I feel I can achieve anything I set out to do whether that be in school, work, or my personal life. knowing I have these girls backing me up helps me go for it.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
