A Letter to my Big

Dear Big,

From the moment you were assigned to me as my bid day buddy I knew you were the one. You are the Christina to my Meredith, the Serena to my Blair. You are the one for me. For most girls finding their Big is a frustrating process. You don't know if they want you back or if it is okay to ask them what they are feeling. Most girls aren't as lucky as we are. The second week of school we met up after our 9 AMs and sat outside of Atkinson's Hall and decided to be Big and Little. The weeks to come were filled with breakfast dates, sleepovers and sitting upstairs talking while everyone else was getting their party on in the living room downstairs.

It's funny because they say, "When you know, you know," frequently that applies just to marriage, but honestly, I feel like it perfectly describes our situation. I feel like finding you to be my big was one of the most exciting moments of my freshman year, so far. Waiting for Big/Little Reveal and to officially be a member of your family felt like an eternity. When Big/Little finally arrived you really went above and beyond each day. From the Sunday before when you decorated my door with my face, to the excessive amounts of cookies and Reese's cups, to the lion costume you made me wear for Reveal you really out did yourself.

The day of Reveal all I could think about was going to the house, picking up my costume and running out to you and my new family members. Walking over to the house in my velvet lion costume definitely caused some people to stare on campus, but you know what at least I got to do it with my sisters. That's one of the best things about being in a sorority, even if you look like a complete doofus you can't feel weird because you're doing it with your sisters. When we finally lined up in our order I was the first to run out. The wait was finally over, we were family.

Thank you, for always being there for me. I am so happy that Jesus, Delta Zeta, and I guess Kennesaw Mountain High School for bringing you to me. I'm so pumped to call you my Big. In high school, if someone had told me that you were going to my Big I probably would have laughed, but we are perfect for each other. I feel bad for other people when we are around each other. I am so glad I found someone who shares my love of crafts and awkward dancing. You are my best friend and I wouldn't trade you for food or money.

Love,

Your Little

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.

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.
