Sorority big little week...a time where girls spend most of their time trying to embody a color-coordinated display set up they randomly found on Pinterest. Each school and sorority chapter is different, but most involve gift giving. Now, this personally stressed me out a little bit, not to mention the fact that i was taking on not just one, but TWO littles (I know, I'm crazy). I wanted to spoil them but also found myself not necessarily having the funds to do this. So, let's get ~crafty~

1. Flowers

Flowers are one of those gifts that are so easy, yet so meaningful. With two littles, you can even split the flowers up and save some money.

2. Mason jars

Fill these with anything and everything. They're super cute and can be used after the festivities are over, too. I put candy, gift cards, small items and more inside of the jars and wrapped some ribbon around to make them more visually appealing.

3. Fuzzy socks

You can never have too many pairs of fuzzy socks and they're a given item that your little will love!

4. Picture frame

Buy a picture frame and stick a cute picture of the two of you inside, or if you're trying to keep the week of the reveal a secret, put a little note inside that reads something along the lines of "Insert a cute picture of us here!"

5. Stickers

If you walk around a college campus where Greek life is present, you'll most likely see Greek letters on laptops, water bottles, cars, etc. You can't go wrong with purchasing some stickers of your sorority letters for your little to deck out her new gear.

6. Face masks

Face masks are cheap, small, and you can pile them up to make a cute display. I know that my littles were so excited to get some skin treatment and even got some for myself so that we could all have a face mask party.

7. Canvas paintings

If you have enough paint and consider yourself an artistic person, you've got a huge advantage and can create some unique and personal paintings for your little. Pinterest has lots of ideas for paintings that pertain to sorority related designs, but also has many ideas for trendy wall art as well.

8. Greek letters

Wooden greek letters that you can paint are SO appreciated by the little sisters. They would love nothing more than to be able to hang them up in their dorm and show off their cute letters. There are so many different designs and variations available to personalize the letters, be creative!

9. T-SHIRTS

Your little is relatively new to the sorority and probably doesn't have too many t-shirts to wear around yet. I had an excessive amount of shirts, some that I never even wear, from a bunch of events and some that my big passed down to me. Trade shirts with some sisters and give your little some tees so she can represent your letters.

10. Snacks

Your little, or any girl, will definitely appreciate some free food. Purchase a basket and put a few of her favorite snacks and candy inside, you can maybe even add some colored frilly filling inside to make it look fuller and cuter!

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.
