I never considered myself to be a sorority girl but I am so thankful for you.

Open Letter To My Sorority

To My Sorority,

Honestly, I never considered myself to be a sorority girl. Even deciding to rush this fall was a last minute decision and honestly, it was one of the best decisions I have ever made by far.

The entire rush week process was a whirlwind of emotions, laughter, and excitement. A lot of it is a blur but one thing that I remember extremely clearly is I fell in love with my sorority the first night. And from that moment on I knew, this is where I belong. People will tell you once you find your sorority you will know because it feels like home. Those words rang true from the moment I first walked into the room and it continues to feel more and more like home with every day in between.

I am so thankful for the amazing friends I have been introduced too. Some from the very first day and others I continue to make with every day that passes in the sorority. I am so thankful for my absolutely amazing big. You are the big sister I never had, you are always there when I need to talk or laugh. You are there when I need to vent or just want some company. I am so thankful for the endless opportunities to help give back to the community. I am thankful for every meeting, social, formal, and sisterhood events they always seem to make my week a little bit brighter.

So to my sorority, thank you. Thank you for introducing me to new friends who I honestly can't imagine going through my first semester of college without. Thank you for giving my such a perfect big who gets me and gives the best advice. Thank you for making my first semester of college as perfect as it could be. Thank you for helping my find my home, my love for my sorority grows with every day.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
