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.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
