13 Reasons Why I Love My BIg
Anonymous

With Spring Recruitment around the corner and starting at USF, I am excited for new members to come and love my sorority as well. Here are a list of reasons why I love my big!

1. She's my other half.

I know I can always count on her for anything. Between ranting to her about my day to sharing our love of food. We may have differences but we are similar so it makes us the best big/ little pair ever.

2. Our love for Disney.

My G-Big got her tickets when she was initiated and she gave me tickets as well so we went to Disney's Magic Kingdom before Thanksgiving break and it was the best time ever. Also it is her love for Tinkerbell and my love for Ariel which works for us. Love my fam.

3. She never judges me since she have been in my shoes.

Literally, she has been in my shoes. I'm not scared to tell my big anything because she knows what is happening (most of the time) and I'm pretty sure she has done the same things I have

4. I can always count on her for advice.

Whether it's me ranting about my class schedules, professors or situations, I know I can always count on her to tell me her opinion on the matter. She has my best interest always in mind.

5. My relationship with my big doesn't change when we haven't talked or seen each other in days.

When we see each other, she always yells, "LITTLE!!!" and hugs me. I love her.

6. She knows about my life.

Being a big, she always ask about anything in my life and anything that happened. Usually this is before chapter too.

7. She always tells me how much she loves me.

Whether it's through text, Snapchat, or in person, she always says, "I love you". She's very affectionate and love giving me hugs. Usually she tells it at the best possible moment and can always make me feel better. Also it's a everyday thing too.

8. Matching with each other.

I went to a Halloween party and saw her. She was a red M&M and I was a blue M&M. It was a coincident that we matched and I did not know that she was going to the same party. Another time was when we matched with our paddles and clothes.

9. Her love for stacking.

She loves stacking for pictures. Any event we go to, it's always a stacking picture and then we do a regular picture.

10. She encourages me to be my best self.

When I doubt myself on exams, or an internship, she thinks that I am going to do amazing things in my life. She encourages me even when I don't believe myself.

11. For acting as a mentor and a role model.

I have the best big because she is a role model in the chapter and is helping with my position in Cabinet. She is so involved with the sorority and makes me want to be involved as well.

12. For encouraging all of our purchases, ideas and decisions.

Whether it is going to get fro-yo after chapter when it is 10pm to impulsively spend money on clothes or shoes, she give me the pros and cons to make the right decision. If not, she will support that too and hope I learned from my mistake.

13. We're both alike.

I may have different majors as her but we are pretty much the same except for food. Both of us love Disney, our family, sleeping in, Netflix shows and other things. I can say that I get it from my big.

Being in a sorority is a lot of different things than just your big. You have philanthropies, sisterhood events, and chapter each week. I am so lucky to have my big because I have an amazing relationship with her. She doesn't get as much credit as she deserves so here's a BIG thank you! I love you! ALAM

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
