Last week, I blogged about getting my bid to Alpha Xi Delta. For today, in honor of big/little being tomorrow at my sorority, I’m going to write about getting my little. Next week will be about getting my big!
From the moment that my little’s pledge class joined the house, I knew who I wanted to be my little. It’s someone who I bonded with the most and who I just thought would be absolutely perfect. We clicked from Day 1. So, I went home for Spring Break and bought so many things for her, including a cute robotic dog (like a furreal pet or something) to give to her because she always asked everyone if she could get a puppy. I made her a bunch of signs trying to lead her in random directions. I almost gave it away because we both connected over loving “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” but I just told her that I told her big that she loved that book.
Anyway, big little comes and I’m scanning the house trying to find a good place to hide. I gave her clues to find me, and I sent her into the direction of my cube and told her to “look up.” It took her about five-ten minutes (bless her heart) to find me, but when she did she got so excited and told me to “jump down big, I’ll catch you!” If you look at my face in the picture above, I’m clearly rethinking everything. I thought she was kidding and I asked everyone who was around (including my big who is in the picture at the bottom) and finally I got a ladder, but my little really wanted me to jump into her arms so she could catch me.
Regardless, I got down and then the picture that you see as the featured image happened! Every time we see each other, after a long break or whatever the situation, we always tackle each other just like in the featured image. She will forever be my favorite and I’m so lucky to have her in my life!
Here’s a picture of me and my little, along with my cousins (or something) in my family!
If you’re in a sorority/fraternity, how did you get your little?
