Thankful for sorority sister

Guest post written by Jeramy Sparks

I grew up as an only child and always wanted to have a big sister. When I joined a sorority, I was lucky to get the best big sister a girl could ask for. She was wonderful throughout my entire college career and has been wonderful even out of college. She was there when I purchased my first house and even helped me figure out all the odd and ends. She set up the major utilities for me like the water, electricity and Direct Star TV. I honestly do not know what my life would be like without her. As an only child, you miss out on a lot of little things others take for granted. I never had anyone to ask advice or to do my makeup. I never had a permanent playmate or friend. Joining the sorority was one of the best decisions I made in my entire college career. I gained a true friend and wonderful sister. I am just glad to have her by my side during my tough decisions and there to support me whenever I need it. It is a blessing to no longer feel like an only child.
