Since a young age, I've been lucky enough to call my parents my best friends. Through everything, even my dreadful pre teen years, they stood by me and didn't kick my, sometimes unappreciative, ass out of the house. Although they're both my best friends, my mom's a bigger fan of articles like this, so this one's for you mom. Thanks for reminding me every day how important it is to be true to myself, kind, and confident. You truly are the Lorelai to my Rory, here's a few reasons why...

1. You give me unconditional love, even when I'm being a pain.

2. You know how to pick me up when I'm having a crappy day, whether it be telling a joke or taking an emergency ice cream trip.

3. Even if you had just as bad of a day.

4. You're in on the latest "gossip" and always willing to give me advice on how to handle it.

5. Your love of coffee has rubbed off on me, but it makes Starbucks or Dunkin trips less lonely.

6. Although you deserve the world and more, you want me to be happy, even if that means I can't buy you a mansion

7. Despite our love of sweets, we'd still choose each other over the cake, even if it's tempting.

8. The list could go on forever, but just how the bond Lorelai and Rory share is undeniable, so is ours. Love you to the moon and back!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
