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.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)

It all started when we learned the truth about Santa.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
