Thank You For Being My Twin

She's not your big, and she's not your little. She's your twin, and you're thankful to have her.

Thank You For Being My Twin
Alison McWilliams

Being in a sorority is great. All of the wonderful women you meet will have some impact on your life in one way or another. There are your pledge class sisters - the ones who started their sorority journey the same time you did. The ones that learned about your organization, became aquatinted with the sisters, and took every step along the new member process with you. There are the seniors that you aspire to be like one day. You want to be able to leave a lasting mark on the chapter like they did. Then, you have your big. The one women you that is the perfect fit for you. You fall in love with her and want to be just like her. She's the one person you run to after every minor and major thing that happens to you.

But sometimes, if you're lucky, you're blessed with a twin. She'll be right beside you as you both go through the process of becoming a member. You'll get to experience everything Greek life throws at you together. She'll know just as much about the process as you do, so you'll have your very own person to talk through the confusion with. Your twin will been there for you through everything and you'll be thankful for her and all of the big and little things she does for you.

Thank you for being there for my every step of the way. You honestly were one of my first friends when we joined and I know I can count on you for anything that goes on.

Thank you for all of the laughter. You have always been there to make me laugh no matter my mood. You will never know how thankful I am for all of the fun filled days and nights we have had and the ones yet to come.

Thank you for also being my shoulder to cry on. Without you, I don't know who would talk some sense into me when I'm upset over something silly.

Thank you for your honesty. You also know how to tell me everything I don't want to hear just when I need to hear it.

Thank you for sharing your big. Although it may have not been our top choices or the ideal situation we wanted, I'm glad I got stuck with you to share a big with.

Thank you for also being my step in big when she wasn't around. All of our adventures wouldn't be complete without people thinking I'm your little.

Thank you for all of the study dates and late night food runs. Most of our study dates were more made up of talking and laughing rather than studying and productivity. But, hey, who needs to study?

But most importantly, thank you for being yourself. You're the perfect balance to my, well, everything.

My sorority experience wouldn't be the same without you. Thank you.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
