To My Future Little

I love you already, Little!

To My Future Little

Hi Little,

I know right now you are absolutely freaking out. You're wondering which house you'll be in and what chapter you'll call home for the next couple of years. I wish I could go through the process with you and tell you that everything will be ok, but that's your Rho Gams job (I bet she is amazing and you should talk to her). I hope you're not too worried about recruitment and I hope you are more and more excited as we get closer to bid day. I hope when you come to Chi Omega that you know it's home. I remember being in your shoes, and not understand why the house I thought I wanted dropped me, but Little I am so happy that they did. Sometimes, we know what we want, but not what we need.

I can't wait to see you running towards us on bid day! I won't even know who you are yet, but I am so excited to meet you. Embrace this time and make the most of it because it won't last forever. Take lots of pictures and make many memories because you're going to be sad when you're an old senior, like me, thinking about wishing you could experience it all again. If I could give you any advice it would be to go to everything! Sorority life is what you put into it, so put a lot in. You won't regret the time spent with sisters (I promise).

I am so excited to see all the friends that you make and the leader that you will become. I am so excited to watch you grow in this house because everyone does. I am so excited to become your Big and to take you in as my own (and spoil you of course). I can't wait to experience Homecoming, Greek Week, intramurals and philanthropies with you. I can't wait to make you get dessert with me really late at night and to Starbucks before every event. I am even more excited to watch you get initiated in the spring and become a sister forever (officially)!

As your Big I will always be here for you; whether you need a shoulder to cry on or someone to get Starbucks with, I'm your girl. I know that I graduate in May and that's not a long time to spend with you, but we will make the most of it. We will make so many memories and take so many photos and experience all that Chi Omega has to offer. I will challenge you to become a leader in this house and to love it the way I love it, and I will try my best to show you that love. I won't be perfect, but I will be the best Big that I could possible be. We are going to have so much fun together, Little. So, hurry up and get through recruitment so I can meet my fabulous Little!

Love you forever and ever,

Future Big

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
