A Thank You Letter To My Pledge Sisters

The sisters I've never had, the best friends that I never knew I needed.

A Thank You Letter To My Pledge Sisters

Dear crazy, beautiful, awesome pledge sisters,

We came to all meet at a time where none of us really knew each other or even ourselves. From the time that we were first introduced to each other as a pledge class, I knew that it was going to be a wild ride. Pledging itself was a time that we all became closer than any of group of girls really should and began to learn every single amazing and annoying thing about each other. Those first few weeks prepared us for a life full of a friendship and sisterhood. We’ve seen each other at our worst, and we still manage to love each other through it all, which is the greatest gift of all.

Through every breakup, annoying drunk fight, and every girl who has pissed us off, we have each other’s backs. I know I can come to any of you with any stupid little rant, and you’ll listen even when I’m being over dramatic. It’s slightly disgusting how unified we are, especially when we shun someone’s ex as a group, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Even though we aren’t all together anymore, you will all always have a place in my heart. You girls are the sisters I never had and the best friends that I never knew I needed. You are my people. No matter how annoying we are, especially when we insist on trying to all fit on the stage at the bar when our song comes on, I wouldn’t want to have it any other way. I’ve seen you all grow into the people you are today, and you’ve shaped me into the person I’ve become. I’m glad we have our embarrassing past selves to laugh at together, and I’m glad that we aren’t afraid to make any more embarrassing memories.

We've done college so right, even when we've been so wrong. So here’s to more nights of raising hell at frat houses, here’s to the drunk group pictures we’ll take, and the times we’ll all stay up too late reminiscing about when we first became pledge sisters. Although we’re getting older, and we’re running out of time where these behaviors are acceptable, I know that you will all be in my life for a very long time.

So here is my thank-you. Thank you for always being down to get pizza with me after the bars. Thank you for reminding me I can’t wear boots with a skater skirt. Thank you for drinking cheap champagne with me and dancing around our sorority house. Thank you for the honest advice that I always needed. Thank you for making me laugh until I cry. But most importantly, thank you for loving me and being my support system. Always remember, we’ve got the world and nothing can stop us.

So much love,

Your Pledge Sister

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.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
