Little, I Promise To...

Sep 09, 2015

It’s that time of year again, and no, I’m not talking about football season. Big/Little Reveal is right around the corner and it is arguably one of the best experiences a girl can have in her time with her sorority. I can’t believe one short year ago I was anxiously trying to figure who my big was, and now I’m about to be a big myself! I’m taking my role of being a big very seriously, and with that mindset, I’ve came up with some promises to my little that I think reflect the kind of big I want to be. So, to my little (who doesn’t know that I’m her big… yet!), here are the promises I’m making to you:

I promise to make you the cutest canvases, snag the cutest t-shirts, and buy all of your favorites for big/little week. You’re my little, and you deserve the best, so that’s what you’re going to get!

I promise to welcome you with open arms into the coolest fam in our sisterhood. We live for each other and we’d die for each other, and don’t think for a second we wouldn’t do the same for you!

I promise to be there when times are tough. College is hard, life is hard, and we all have those down-in-the-dumps kind of days. Know that you always have me to lean on when you can’t stand on your own.

I promise to be there when times are great. College is fun, life is fun, but all of that is even more fun when you have someone to share it with. I can’t wait to share the exciting times in my life with you, as I hope you’ll do with me.

I promise to teach you how to be the best sister you can be. Songs, rules, and rituals can be a little overwhelming at first, but I’ll be there to guide you through it all, step by step. (Just don’t make fun of my singing voice!)

I promise to be your go-to dance partner. Even when no one else is on the dance floor, or everyone is staring because my dance moves are so bad.

I promise to be honest with you. Whether it’s about your outfit or the guy you’re crushing on, I’ll give you the most honest advice I can on it all.

I promise to be your Big: your partner in crime, your best friend. Someone you can always turn to no matter what. I can’t promise that I’ll be perfect, but I can promise that I’ll try to be.

I love you lots already, little, and I can’t wait for all of the great times to come!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
