16 Signs You've Met Your College Family

If you're like me, you've been blessed with a college family. These are the people you talk to almost every day, give updates of when it's almost time for grilled cheese Thursday, and these are the people you confide in with every detail of your life.

1. You have a group message that gets texted in almost every minute of every day.


It has an iconic name that only the people in your group message would understand. Your phone buzzes off the hook when really it's just the group message with notices of hot guy warnings, pictures of outfit choices, and rants of overwhelming workloads.

2. Every morning, you look forward to waking up and seeing these beautiful faces.


I literally walk down the stairs of my apartment and bang on one of my best friend's door just to say good morning (we were ironically placed as neighbors in our complex).

3. These are your number one supporters.


They help you get ready for date functions, give you a million other closets to borrow clothes and shoes from, provide you with endless compliments, and make you feel like you're on top of the world.

4. These are the people you confide in with your deepest secrets.

They know anything and everything about you, and still love you to no end.

5. When you're sick, they're the one's who deliver medicine to your door.

You practically have built in nurses.

6. You're complete savages together (nobody has a filter) and that's the best part, because you know they'll always tell you the harsh truth.

7. These are the people who never judge you, no matter how much of a freak you may be.


You hang out almost every day, and never get tired of each other (okay maybe sometimes, but all you need is a couple of hours, and it's back to being crazy together).

8. Dance parties are endless.

Whether it's 9am in the kitchen, 2pm on the Quad, or 12am at someone's house, they're always up to dance with you.

9. These are the only people who can make fun of you, and it be okay.

You falling down a hill a year ago, and completely wiping out, is still a topic that gets brought up - but it's funny, so it's okay.

11. You motivate each other throughout the endless days of work.

You might've had a bad day, but it's okay, because when you get home you can all watch the Bachelor, stuff your faces with junk food, and rant about your days together.

12. You're bad influences to each other, but also each other's best influences.


There's nobody else you'd rather be in shambles with, but also be successful with.

13. These are the first people you report back to when you get an A on an exam, or bake the best cookies ever, because nobody else cares, but you know they will.

14. You always have something to do.

Whether it be tanning at the pool, tailgating, studying at the library, or having coffee dates together, there's always someone there.

15. Without a doubt, these are the people you'd drop anything for.


If it was 12pm or 12am, you're always ready for some kind of adventure with them.

16. These are the people who make up your college family, away from your biological family.

Life sure is an endless roller coaster of fun with them, and there's no one else you'd rather do college with.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

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.
