Oh my god...it makes me want to cry thinking about it.

See.. this is what i can't wait for.. we're the founders, (i'm #22 baby) and i'm counting down the seconds until i can walk back on to my campus (which is going to be huge by then), 20 years from now and see my sisters carrying on traditions that we once carried on and started..
I was lucky enough to be blessed with a huge family, but so many people aren't, and it's so comforting to know that no matter what happens in you're life, there's always going to be someone there to back you up.. not only that, but you're going to have an infinate amount of connections.. you get in a lawsuit... there's bound to be a lawyer.. you need help with your taxes.. there's going to be an accountant.. and there's always that twinge of excitement you feel when you're walking down the street in some far off state when you see someone in your letters... it's that instant common ground.
Most of all, the ties that i have forged in this sisterhood, just being through so much with these girls... those late nights during recruitment, those bid night dramas, the long sleepy hours in the campus center just shooting the proverbial s***, the creation of new tradition, and a new orginazation, are just set in titanium... i can't imagine a day without them... you know i'm going to be a super alum, my org. is a part of me that i can honestly never see waning into the background (sorry for babbling... just had to get a little love off my chest
)
