22 Thoughts Bigs Have During Big/Little Week

If you're in a sorority or on a campus where there is Greek life. then you know Big/Little Week is upon us. You might have seen Facebook accounts spreading the love, Snapchats of your friends crafting or Instagram pictures of rooms decorated by Bigs. To those on the outside, Big/Little Week might seem crazy. To those in the know—we know it's crazy. The entire week is a roller coaster of thoughts and emotions.

1. When you get your Little:

OMG, I love her already!


2. If you find out you're having twins:

The more the merrier.


3. When you actually process you're having twins:

Wait...two Littles means two times the crafting—send help, please.


4. When you start stalking your Little(s):

My Littles are even cuter than I thought could be possible. Also, they have great embarrassing middle school photos that I can't wait to resurface.


5. When you create a fake Facebook account to show your love for them:

Facebook Name: BiggieLuvs Lil. They'll never know it's me.


6. When they add you as a friend on your fake Facebook account:

Finally!


7. When they comment on a picture you posted:

I'm just really excited, OK.


8. When everyone asks you how the crafting is going:

Um...what if I haven't started yet?


9. When people show you pictures of what they've already crafted:

Why is everyone so good at this?


10. When you start crafting:

So, I think I'll use glitter to cover up my lack of artistic ability.


11. When you decorate their room the first night:

Why is their room so much bigger than I thought it would be? How am I supposed to make this look nice? I definitely did not bring enough stuff.


12. When you see your Little(s) post a picture of their decorated room:

I'm awesome. My Little likes me. The world is good.


13. When you run into your Little(s) on campus:


I will not give myself away.


14. When you decorate their room the second night:

Decorating the first night went smoothly. Second night will be no problem.

15. When they almost catch you outside their door:


I spoke too soon.

16. When you decorate their room the third night:

Decorating is getting a bit exhausting, I just want them to know who I am already.


17. When it's the morning of Big/Little Reveal:

Will they be excited to find out I'm their Big? Will they be disappointed? Will we be like those Bigs and Littles who are best friends or will we have more of a mentor/mentee relationship? So much excitement.

18. When you almost accidentally post about being their Big with your own Facebook account, instead of the fake one you made:

That was almost too close.

19. When you drop off gifts for them before reveal:

I may or may not have a countdown on my phone.

20. When you reveal you're their Big:

Time for you to love me as much as I love you.

21. When you take your first family picture:


#PowerFam

22. When you finally process that you're a Big:

Someone trusted me to be a Big. I'm not the littlest Little anymore. I have someone who I can call my Little forever. Someone who I can spend late nights talking to. Someone who I can make brunch with. Let the bonding begin!
