Though my experience was 20 years prior to the blogger's, it was very much the same. I loved this image:

" But get us back together again, even if it’s only a few of us, and something magical happens. It’s like we become 19 again, tossing back our hair (though much smaller now) in hearty laughter, talking about everything and nothing all at the same time and reliving our crazy youth even as we now sit at middle age. The Thetas, Tri-Delts, Chi-Os and Kappas, Zetas, ADPis and DZs, doesn’t matter—throw us all in a dimly lit room, hand us a burning candle, start playing something sappy on the piano and witness us put our arms around each other and start swaying. See the flood of good times replay behind our misty eyes and the bonds of sisterhood we took way back when manifest themselves in a much deeper understanding of what it means to be a sister and a friend, all these years later. Then watch us look into each other’s eyes and say 10 very, very important words: 'Thank God there were no cell phone cameras back then.' In the light of the flame, amen."
