Sorority Big Little Stress

A big problem for a little sorority memory

Sorority Big Little Stress

Sorority big little reveal: another cut-throat, stressful activity surrounding sorority life. This is mainly stressful for the bigs, since they like to fight over the littles and talk behind each other's backs.

Last year I was a little, and I had no idea what happened behind the scenes. My favorite thing during big little week were all the little anonymous gifts from my big; I felt like she knew me so well, even though I had filled out a questionnaire asking what my favorite candies and room color scheme were.

This year, I had the opportunity to take a little, and let me tell you, the week beforehand was HORRIBLE. Fellow bigs that I considered to be my friends were shadily asking who I wanted as my little, and wanting to know everything about everyone. I have to admit, I was also asking who wanted who as their little, but I didn't want to spread rumors or anything. I had just genuinely wanted to know.

It got so cut-throat in the sorority house that some girls were straight up just being aggressively shady instead of passive-aggressive shady, which was hard to handle. Honestly, it was one of the most drama-filled experiences that I have had.

The day that big little preference sheets were due was the worst. All the bigs and all the littles fill out a sheet asking who they want, and after the sheets were due, everyone was knocking on each other's doors, asking who put which little down as their first choice.

After the pairings were sent out, there was even more drama, since some of the bigs got their last choice in little, and some of them got random littles. One girl even refused to take her little, since she wanted a different girl so badly.

On the bright side, big little week is over, but if there's one piece of advice that I can give: stay out of the big little drama.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
