Sorority recruitment was an experience I will never forget. It was tough for sure, but I made it through and I am in LOVE with the house I got. Although I am obsessed with greek life now, I was indifferent about it going into rush. I did not know much about it nor did I have any connections which made the process that much more difficult for me. I had to get recommendation letters, do an orientation, and decide which philanthropy I want to represent. However, I am here to give some insight to all of my confused girls going into rush. Do not worry, you are not alone.

There you have it, three things I wish I would have known before rush. I know it all seems hectic, but remember to trust the process and you will end up exactly where you belong! Also, rush is not for everyone so please don't be pressured to rush. Following that, there is also informal recruitment or continuous open bidding if formal rush is not for you. Have fun!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
