Dear Future Little

Dear Future Little
Madeline Raineri

My lovely little,

Almost a year ago, I would sit in my room on Pinterest and scroll through different Big/Little ideas for when the time came that I could have a little to call my own. I never thought of myself as "sappy" and I never wanted to "try too hard" but let me tell you... I am so excited and SO in love!

I started buying crafts for you as soon as I found out who you were and what you liked (which is coincidentally the same stuff as me), and I have been losing sleep because I was so excited. Instead of sleeping I was dreaming up craft ideas and how I would make my reveal amazing.

I found my mind constantly drifting to you and the clues I would give you to (maybe) help you figure out who I am.

I found myself stressing over the crafts I am giving you to make sure they are ABSOLUTE perfection, just like you.

But enough with the crafts, I cannot wait to be your friend, which is the best part of the Big/Little program. The friend you can call whenever and I will be there just to talk or to laugh uncontrollably.

I want to be the girl who sits in the back of the room with you and cracks jokes while we're supposed to be serious (let's face it, I already am that girl).

Most of all, I want to be someone you can look up to and trust. Real friendship is hard to come by these days, and I am more than willing to step up to the plate and be the friend you need in any situation.

Dear Little,

I cannot wait to be there for you every step of the way. Whether it is through Delta Zeta or everyday life, I am so ready.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.
