I remember a time when I was very pissed at my chapter sisters and I really wanted to go alum early just so I didn't hafta put up with their bullshit anymore.

And then I sat with my chapter advisor (the lovely hawaiiagd) and she reminded me about how our sisterhood extended internationally and how, even if I didn't get along with those on our campus (at that time), there'd be other sisters our there who'd show me what sisterhood was really all about.

I'm glad I took her advice. I took my time, and my campus sisters took their time. It took me awhile and we appreciate each other now, but those sisters I met later on in life are the ones who I will keep with me forever.
