To My Little: You Are My Little Family
Anna Jordan

Dear Little,

This is crazy and cheesy but it is us. I watched you go through a week of gifts waiting to find out that it was me who is going to be "your person" in the words of the oh so wise Christina Yang. I know I mentioned this to you before but I believe that this is something that you should know for the rest of our lives. I want you to know or remember that I am here as your sister, I am here as your best friend, and I am here as your mentor. You and I we are sorta stuck together. I would never trade you for the world! You see, you lucked out you are my one and only little, small, and tiny, your all I have in my little family. But that is okay because even after I am gone and graduated and being a little adult in a crazy big world, I am still going to be your big.

I will be there for you when you need to talk about guys, when you need to talk about the good, the bad, the ugly of the chapter. I am going to be here when you feel like you cannot keep going to motivate you and tell you that I believe in you and I am proud of not only the amazing sister I know you will become but also the amazing person I am lucky enough to see you become. We will laugh together, cry together, and I will answer your calls at 2 am if thats what you need. I am going to make sure you get the best experience from college and from the sorority because if you anything like me, which I know you basically are, you are going to fall in love with the sorority. You will get angry with it and want to walk away and I will be standing at the door to tell you to take a breath and turn around because you love it. You will endure crazy stupid things in life, not only in chapter but overall in all aspects of life and I will be standing there saying really dorky things but the one you will probably hear most beside, "I am proud of you," or "I believe in you," is "Don't give you little one I know you can do it."

Through all of life's obstacles I'm here to help guide you. Even if you just need to call me just because you need to vent, graduated or not I am here for you. When you are sick I will make sure you have medicine, if not we will go get you some, if you are just over everything and just can't anymore, I am here to listen and try help you solve life's silly puzzles.

Of all things Little, I want you to always remember to walk with your head held high, no matter the circumstances, because you don't want to let your crown fall.

I cannot wait for you to grow as an Alpha Sig, you have so much to discover in life and I am glad I get to be there with you for it all!

Sincerely,

Big

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
