Cierra Bolinder

Hey. I'm Cierra.
My story is a little bit different than everyone else's. See, I never planned on joining TBS. I'm one of those super shy people that never tries anything new, and has a hard time making new friends. One night toward the beginning of fall semester, Tau Beta Sigma and Kappa Kappa Psi were having a bonfire. I decided to go thinking I could at least get some good food out of it (mmm s'mores...). TBS had just finished one of their rituals, and when they joined everyone at the fire, they decided to sing their song. And honestly, I think that the moment I heard them sing, I knew I wanted to be apart of it. The only light came from the fire, and the song sounded so haunting, and so meaningful to all the girls, I couldn't help but envy them. They had this sister hood to bring them together. They had TBS, and they had each other. That night I was asked (again) if I would like to join TBS, and that time, I accepted.
I'm still shy. I still have trouble being myself and making new friends, but every hour I spend with these girls, I'm able to come out of my shell a little more. I can see that this group is going to transform me into a better, more outgoing version of myself. I'm very grateful to all the girls for giving me the chance to be myself. I'm so glad I joined TBS, and I'm looking forward to having stronger friendships with these girls.
