A Letter To My Growing Sorority Family
Karsen Cinquepalmi

Dear Sorority Family (Basically Eat Family),

I do not think there are enough words in this world to describe what you mean to me, but I'm going to try and do it anyways. Through all of the ups and downs that college throws my way, you are always my number one cheerleaders. Sometimes, I feel that we can take these things for granted and get caught up in the moment. So, I wanted to take some time out of my crazy life to tell you what you have done for me.

To my awesome Big: Thank you for being the old sister I have never had. It is very hard knowing that I will not have you around next year to dance on bar tables with or eat terrible food from the food court at the mall. We've had our ups and downs but I think the best advice I have gotten in this college experience thus far has come from you. You probably the person I admire most (yes, even more than Beyoncé) and I strive to be half the person you are. My hope is that I can be that kind of positive role model for my Littles and that they love me as much as I love you.

To my two perfect Littles: You guys rock. I feel so honored to be your mentor, best friend, sister, crying buddy, going out partner, etc. I think I have learned so much about myself by having the both of you in my life. It was never my intentions to take twins, but once I met you both, I knew I could not live without you in my life. Thank you for all the love you give me and always being there to dance it out on an elevated surface, bring me coffee when I am having a crappy day or collectively hating the boys that screw us over together. You both are going to make amazing Bigs and I cannot wait to see how you make an impact on your Littles' life, but please don't forget about me!

Last but definitely not least, my Grand-Littles: I know we just met, but I love you with all of my heart already because that is what family is all about. You both are beyond blessed with the best Bigs in the world I cannot wait to watch you grow and get your own Littles within the next year. You are joining a very close-knit family who would literally do everything and anything for each other. Whether it is taking you to urgent care when you are convinced your foot is broken or sending you obnoxious cat videos to make you laugh when a boy is being stupid, you will find that in this family. Get ready to be smothered with an ungodly amount of affection.

I know everyone says this, but college would not be the same without you. Thank you for being my home away from home and my forever family. I cannot wait to see where life brings us in the next few years, but no matter the distance, we will always be family.

Love,

Your Favorite Family Member

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
