When I went through rush freshman year, I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know if I even wanted to be in a sorority. I did know though that I wanted to be a part of something special. I figured I may as well go through formal recruitment and see what happens.

And, boy, was that a good decision.

So to my sisters... thank you. For so much.

Thank you for immediately accepting me into your family, and accepting me for who I am on the inside.

Thank you for being my home away from home.

Thank you for making sure I'm doing OK when I'm sick and for driving me to the doctor.

Thank you for cheering me up when I'm sad.

Thank you for your endless support after breakups.

And for reminding me that, yes, I am worth it.

Thank you for the cookies, cupcakes, and endless amounts of treats.

Thank you for the dance parties, movie nights, pregames...

Thank you for being my support system.

Thank you for being more than just my friends.

Thank you for helping me talk to boys and helping me find dates to dances.

Thank you for helping me build up my self confidence in more than one way.

Thank you for making me mac and cheese when I'm sad.

Thank you for all the laughs and girls nights.

Thank you for helping me do my hair, my makeup, and choose my outfits.

Thank you for the countless opportunities.

Thank you for the many memories, all of which I will cherish forever.

Thank you for making my college experience the best it can possibly be. I mean it when I say that I don't know what I'd do without any of you.

Thank you all for reminding me that I am beautiful and that I am special. Thank you all for making me a better person.

xoxo, T
