20 Gifts To Get For Your Little
Andrea Hansgen

Recruitment is over and sororities have just gained lots of amazing new members. I know personally, I'm already totally obsessed with all of the new members in my sorority! One of the most exciting parts about this time of year is that Big/Little week is just around the corner!

For those of you that don't know, when a girl joins a sorority she gets a big to be her mentor to guide her through her new member days and beyond! Older girls can apply to be a big and take on a new member as their little. I plan on applying to be a big this semester and while there are no guarantees, I have started preparing for if I do get a little.

One of the most exciting parts of Big/Little week is gifting. In my sorority, every day for three days the big "breaks in" to their little's dorm with the help of her roommate and leaves her gifts. At the end of these three days is reveal, where the little finally finds out who her big is. I want to leave you all with a list of ideas for gifts to get for your little!

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

Fans love her because she isn't afraid to be herself. April can seem cold and negative, but she's really just fearless and strong-minded. And despite her sometimes harsh words, April truly cares about the people she's closest to. These are all reasons she is the epitome of a college student. April complains whenever she has to do any kind of work, but ends up doing the work anyway. April Ludgate is the ultimate college student spirit animal.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.
