To My Perfect Future Little, I Don't Know You Yet But I Love You

My Perfect Future Little,

I don't even know you yet but I am in love with the thought of how close we are going to become. It may sound uber creepy now but I promise, this time next year when you are looking to take on a little you're going to be thinking the exact same thing. You, too, are going to be anxiously awaiting the sister who is destined to be your soulmate.

I can't wait to welcome you home and show you how amazing sorority life is! When I thought about college, I knew I wanted to join a sorority, but I had no idea how truly amazing it would be. I thought that I probably wouldn't fit in, but I'm so happy I gave it a chance and decided to go through recruitment. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made and led me to a home away from home.

It's so strange to think about how just one year ago I was in your shoes. So overwhelmed; unsure of what the future would hold and where I would end up. On top of all of that, the go-go-go mentality you need for the recruitment process took a toll on me and I got bronchitis (fingers crossed that doesn't happen again). So I'm hoping you have a healthier week than I did.
It's positively a one of a kind experience though.

You go from suddenly having close to no friends to having hundreds of not just friends but sisters. The best part is, that they all love YOU and want YOU. They will be there for you in your time of darkness and they will be dancing right alongside you when you are at your happiest.

I want you to know that the very second I get to call you my little will be one of the most special moments of my life. I cannot wait to jump up and down and take a bazillion pictures with you and brag about my amazing new little to all my friends. I cannot wait to go through all your firsts with you and watch you truly embrace what sisterhood means.

I do also have some cliche promises to make to you. I promise to always be there for you when you need me, no matter what. That means if you need a shoulder to cry on or, well anything. I promise to always find time to hang out with you. Let's be honest, college is hectic. There is always a project to do, or a class that you need to study for, or an extracurricular that manages to take up all of your time. But I want us to be close; as close as a Big and Little can be.

So I want to go out on random Starbucks dates and maybe go get our nails done every once in a while. I want to be the best Big to you that I can be. I want to find time in this chaotic life to hang out with the best Little a girl could ask for. There are so many other things that I want to promise you but it'd be a neverending list, so these are just the most important.

So with all of this being said, I can't wait for us to be sisters for life. AND be able to experience all that college has to offer alongside one another! Love you so much already and can't wait to meet you and officially welcome you home!

XOXO,

Your Crazy Excited Future Big

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

2045

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.
