To My Future Little

A letter from your future big.

To My Future Little
Jaime Shaffer

To my future little,

I don't know who you are yet and I won't for a few more months, but when I do I'll know every little thing about you. Favorite color, favorite food, and the list can go one. I am so excited to expand my family line, I've only been waiting over a year to do so. Being a new member of a sorority is the best six to eight weeks of your membership within your organization. One of the best parts is getting your big and becoming a member of a family line. My family line is crazy, but I know you'll fit in perfectly.

Although summer vacation has just started and won't become your big until the fall, I have been crafting and saving small things here and there for a while now. There is a basket full of crafts sitting in my closet waiting to be given out. I have and still will try to perfect each and every craft that I make so it is worthy enough for you to hang on your dorm walls. The amount of letters I have already made to be sewn on shirts for you is countless.

I want you to know that you can come to me whenever you need anything. If your pledge sisters and you are having trouble and need advice, come to me. Need help for an exam? Let's meet in the library for a study session. If you want to cry because of a broken heart, come to me. If you need me to get you at 2 in the morning, call me. My big has done those for me and it's time I do them for someone too. If you want a coffee date to catch up, let me know so we can schedule a time and place. You can count on me for anything.

I hope you love our sorority as much as I do and I hope you love wearing our letters across your chest. I can't wait to see you grow within our organization by becoming a sister, taking on positions, and so on. I cannot wait to call you my sister. Lastly, I cannot wait to meet you the day you get your bid and the day that you become mine.

TLAM,

Your future big.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
