17 Truths About Big/Little Reveals
Madeline Ulrich

Its about that time of the year when recruitment time settles down, all the chapters welcome in their new members, and big/little reveal is just around the corner.

Last year, I was lucky enough to take my little and I have to say, the entire week up until reveal when I found out she was my little, was probably the most stressful week of my college career. Not only am I mediocre at crafting, I'm a perfectionist that can barely paint, and the least girly person you will ever meet so crafting is the most stressful thing in the world.

To all the future bigs that are crafting for their littles here are some things that you can all relate to:

1. Thinking your crafty trying to do all the Pinterest crafts and then you pick up a paint brush and you realize you have no idea what your doing.

2. Glitter gets EVERYWHERE and it will never leave no matter how many times you clean.

3. Rhinestones become your worst nightmare.

4. Sleep? What's Sleep?

5. Mod Podge is a life saver.

6. There is nothing wrong with tracing.

7. Your think you're a pretty cool person until you have to write your clues and you blank on everything about yourself.

8. At 2 am that canvas looked great... 9 a.m. maybe rethink that thought.

9. Seeing your little on campus and having to refrain from calling her "little."

10. Constant runs to Michael's and Jo-Ann's it's more like your second home.

11. Spending HOURS picking out Big/Little shirts.

12. Sneaking into your little's room to leave the clues thinking you're a ninja but you're actually a bull in a China Shop.

13. Contemplating if you love your little enough to keep crafting.

14. Tie blankets are the enemy.

15. Finally going to reveal and totally surprise your little that you're her big.

16. Seeing the look on her face when she sees you and realizing all of the painful hours of crafting was totally worth it.

17. Knowing that you made the right decision by taking a little and you will love her forever.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
