Right now, I'm not sure if you signed up for recruitment the day registration opened up, or if you'll be like me and waited until the last possible second. I'm not sure if you've always wanted to join a sorority or you're just giving it a try. I'm not sure what your name is, what you look like, or how you drink your coffee. But this is what I am sure about—you're about to get so lucky when it comes to your Big.

She's going to spend weeks obessessing over you—literally. She's going to be talking about you non-stop to me, her friends, boyfriend, and even parents (pretty much anyone who will listen). She's going to be counting down the days until she can call you her little and brag to everyone on social media about how perfect you are. She'll stay up all night crafting beatiful letters and worrying that you hate them (even though you won't). She'll be checking Instagram every 30 seconds for you to finally post a picture, but then wait a few minutes to give it a 'like'. She'll stalk you all the way back to 2008 and find the most embarrassing pictures, but she'll love you all the same.

She'll take the time to get to know you, but not just the person you are now. She will want to know who you were before college and who you want to be after. She'll learn all about what made you into the person you are today and keep you accountable to the person you want to be in four years. She'll want to hear about that time you tripped and fell in front of a crowd and see those embarrassing school photos, there's nothing about your past that she won't love, because it made you who you are today.

Your big will share some of the deepest parts of her life with you, even if it reflects poorly on her, because she wants you to learn from her. She'll tell you all the kind of bad choices she's made, and then she'll tell you all the really bad choices she made. She'll understand when you make all the same mistakes she warned you about, because you never fully learn a lesson until it happens to you. She will be there whenever you need advice and probably give it to you even when you don't ask. It will be honest and real, because she wants the best for you (not many other people geninueally want that for you).

You'll always have something to do and someone to talk to, because she'll make sure you never feel alone. She'll drag you out when you're in need of some fun, even if your already in a big t-shirt and leggings. She'll introduce you to everyone she knows and they'll love you, because they love her. She'll lecture you if you had a little too much fun the night before (be thankful because she's better than standards), but after it's all said and done she will be there to laugh about it and grab you some Advil.

When you're having a bad day she wont judge you for eating your weight in ice cream or drinking wine before five o'clock. She wont judge you for waiting until the last possible minute to do your laundry or never cleaning your room. She wont care if you can't craft like the girls on The Cooler Connection or even if a preschooler could paint better than you.

The days and nights that you're stuck in the library, you'll find her there. She'll remind you the importance of staying on top of your school work, but she'll teach you how to fit some fun in-between. She'll show you what it means to have a big sister and teach you what it means to be a member of your sorority. When you have to craft a cooler and are completely lost on how to do this, she'll teach you (or at least call me to help). Basically, you'll learn more from her than you will from most professors.

It won't take long for you to realize how lucky you are to have her, but if you ever need a reminder feel free to ask me. I might not know what it's like to be her little, but I do know what it's like to be her big.

It's safe to say we both hit the jackpot with her.
