A Letter To My Future Little
C. Babb

Dear Little,

You don't know exactly who I am yet, but that day will get here before we know it. I’ve discovered so much about you. I know your favorite color, season, animal, and flower pattern. I’ve creeped so far back on your Facebook that I know exactly how awkward you were in 2008, and yet I’m still just as in love with you as I was before.

Over the next few weeks, you’ll wonder who I am, and I’ll bite my tongue while I try not to spoil it. I’ll awkwardly avoid you at our events, out of fear that I won’t be able to stop myself from gushing all over you. Although I’ll try to lead you astray with my clues, I hope you’ll still tell your friends that you want it to be me.

Please know that you will always have a friend in me. This sorority is your home away from home and that's what I'll be for you. I'll be your mom when you need someone to take care of you, I'll be your sister, your mentor, and one of the best friends you could ask for. You need it little? Big's got it.

I'll chase the boys away that clearly aren't a nine, and give you nothing but the truth when you ask if your outfit looks cute. We will Netflix binge together as we shop for matching shirts online. We can get in the car and just ride around for hours with no destination.

I promise to always be here for you no matter what. Whether it be boy troubles, friend troubles, or school troubles, you can believe I’ve been through it all and will help you to get through it, too. I promise to pick up the phone on the first ring and I'll always make sure you're OK.

Not only will you always have me, but you will always have your Grand Big and the rest of your family in your corner. They are just as excited as I am to have you to share this life with. You could not have picked a better family, really.

Little, I can’t promise to be perfect. I’m sure I’ll have my moments where you wonder who is the big and who is the little and I’m going to apologize in advance. I will always try to turn our less than ideal situations into the best and funniest stories and will always make up any of my shenanigans with feeding you and taking you shopping. Thank you for being you and I can’t wait to make even more memories in the coming years!

I can't wait for the day that you find out who I am.

Love,

Big

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
