You're one of the best things that have come out of being in a sorority. You're my best friend, my biggest support system, and someone I know I can always come to.
When I knew it was time to get a little, I worked my butt off. There were so many requirements and I was going to do everything it took to reach those expectations. No matter the grade requirements, no matter the money, no matter the attendance requirements, I was there. I went above and beyond what was expected of me because I wanted a little.
The idea of having a little is great. I thought about all the pictures we'd take and all the crafts I'd make you. I even made a Pinterest board of poses, painted canvas', and pick-me-up's I could send you. It's the idea of having a little that drove me to work harder. Little did I know that you'd have such a big impact in my life.
The moment we met at recruitment, you made me want to be a big even more. We had a million different intersections between our personalities, especially since we were both nervous burping the whole time. I never thought I'd meet another person that was that much like me. When bid day came around, I was on my toes waiting for you to choose us, and YOU DID. I made it a priority to talk to you that day because I knew that first impressions mattered. I was so worried you weren't going to think we had such a good sisterly connection as I did. I can't tell you how many times I told my friends and parents how great you were and that I wanted you as my little. I shouldn't have worried so much.
Every time you came around the circle for big and little mixers, it was so hard not to keep a smile on my face. I held my tongue so many times when I felt like I needed to tell you that I wanted you as my little. When the night of reveal came along, I was the most stressed out I'd been since I chose our sorority. I made certain that my box was the best it could be. I probably changed my outfit 10 times to make sure it was going to be up to par with all the pictures we were going to take. All I could hear was my heartbeat and I was sweating so bad. When I looked up and saw you, I couldn't have been happier.
We click so easily. You understand everything about me and you never hold anything against me. You're always making me laugh with your funny jokes and you're always there to give me the best advice you can. You're always a text or a phone call away and I know I can rely on you with whatever life throws at me. I always look forward to our time together and I can't wait to see what memories we make in the future.
I will always try to be the best big I can be. I will never leave you alone to do something you cannot handle. I promise to always be here for you when you need a ride home after a late night. I promise to always support you and have your back, even if I don't agree with you. I promise to always stand up for you if someone says anything bad about you. I promise to help guide you through your membership in our organization to show you the person and sister you can become. I promise to always strive to be the big sister you've always wanted.
Thank you for being my best friend and for always having my back. Thank you for making me laugh and listening to me vent when I'm crying or stressing out. Thank you for always being up for a crazy adventure with me or even a lame one. Thank you for being my chauffeur for a few hours when my car isn't working. Thank you for pushing me to be better in school and in our sorority. Thank you for being the little I've always wanted.
