Snaps To Mizzou Kappa Kappa Gamma

"Every day we face the stereotypes that society gives us, and every day we overcome these stereotypes. We are sorority women, we are strong and we are proud. We are Theta chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma."

Snaps To Mizzou Kappa Kappa Gamma

What it means to be a sorority woman in today's society has become stereotypically all about partying, materialistic things, fake personalities, and studies always coming second.

That is not what it truly means to be a sorority woman in today's world.

We are intelligent women who are going to change the world with our confidence and support of our sisters.

The University of Missouri Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority recently created a new project: "Breaking Barriers." It destroys the stereotype against sororities with each picture. Seeing this post, I was immediately blown away by the impact it had, and how fast it spread through social media.

This post and this project is exactly the reason why I joined a sorority. You become a part of something bigger than yourself and because of an organization such as that, it has the capabilities to leave an imprint on your life, society, and the world.

All it takes is two hands.

I know that this project is going to light a spark in the eyes of every sorority in the nation, as it should, because this project is an incredible idea. It really is breaking barriers, not only in each girl's life as they confess a secret of their past, but in breaking down the barrier that sorority girls are different than the average person. In the grand scheme of things, we're honestly a large group of girls with similar morals, values, and love for frocket t-shirts. We go through hard times too, and we're not what society has come to say we are.

So many snaps to the Mizzou chapter, thank you for reminding all of us why we are proud to be sorority women. We all have a story to tell and thank you for sharing yours. I hope this promotes other chapters to not be scared to defy the stereotype, because just like Kappa Kappa Gamma showed us, sorority women are much more than society deems them to be.

To every sorority, let's band together and help KKG's mission to break barriers.

We are intellectual, strong, creative, passionate and there is nothing stopping our voices from being heard. Thank you KKG at Mizzou for allowing us to hear your voices. It was beautiful.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
