Biggie,

Even over a year later, I'm still obsessed with the fact that you are my big. All big-little week, you had me convinced that you did not take a little, and much to my surprise, you in fact did take a little. I was her. So here are a few things I feel I need to thank you for.

Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
