10 Big Thoughts Every Little Has During Big-Little Week, AKA Sorority Christmas
Maddie Wagner

If you know anything about sororities, you've probably heard of Big Little week. If you haven't, here's a rundown. You go on a ton of "big-little dates" and meet older girls in your sorority, and see who could be your potential big. Then, you rank your bigs and they rank their littles. Then starts Big-Little week!!!

I had an embarrassing Instagram account made for me, which was very interesting. My big posted pictures of me taken from Facebook and my personal Instagram and then did edits and wrote strange captions for me every day.

During Big-Little week, the little gets daily surprise presents from their big, but they don't know who their big is yet. Presents often include sorority gear, candy, canvases, and stuffed animals. The littles get spoiled to death all week until Big-LIttle Reveal where they finally get to meet their big and then their big's "family."

In case you were wondering, here are 10 thoughts every Little has during Big-Little Week.

1. When you see how many presents you actually get...

I hope you're not broke, Biggie.

2. All day during class while you know your Big could be decorating your room at that very moment...

You just know that they're going to be amazing.

3. When your Big messages you through their Little Instagram and is dropping hints about themselves...

It's creepy that you're talking to someone whose profile picture is your face...


4. When your Big gets your present EXACTLY right...

You better believe I'll be showing everyone!

5. When your roommate tells you they know who your Big is...

But at the same time, if you tell me, I'll kill you.


6. When you wake up on Big-Little Reveal Day...

~SooOoOOooOoOO excited!~

7. When people are teasing you because they know who your big is and you don't...

NOT OK.

8. When you walk into your room and it's all decorated...

IT'S SO PRETTY.

9. The day of Big-Little Reveal...

You've never meant those words so much as right now...

10. When you finally see your Big and know how much fun you're going to have together...

YAY, BIGGIE, I LOVE YOU!

The agonizing wait is all worth it once you find your Big. Merry Sorority Christmas!

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
