17 Truths About Big/Little Reveals
Madeline Ulrich

Its about that time of the year when recruitment time settles down, all the chapters welcome in their new members, and big/little reveal is just around the corner.

Last year, I was lucky enough to take my little and I have to say, the entire week up until reveal when I found out she was my little, was probably the most stressful week of my college career. Not only am I mediocre at crafting, I'm a perfectionist that can barely paint, and the least girly person you will ever meet so crafting is the most stressful thing in the world.

To all the future bigs that are crafting for their littles here are some things that you can all relate to:

1. Thinking your crafty trying to do all the Pinterest crafts and then you pick up a paint brush and you realize you have no idea what your doing.

2. Glitter gets EVERYWHERE and it will never leave no matter how many times you clean.

3. Rhinestones become your worst nightmare.

4. Sleep? What's Sleep?

5. Mod Podge is a life saver.

6. There is nothing wrong with tracing.

7. Your think you're a pretty cool person until you have to write your clues and you blank on everything about yourself.

8. At 2 am that canvas looked great... 9 a.m. maybe rethink that thought.

9. Seeing your little on campus and having to refrain from calling her "little."

10. Constant runs to Michael's and Jo-Ann's it's more like your second home.

11. Spending HOURS picking out Big/Little shirts.

12. Sneaking into your little's room to leave the clues thinking you're a ninja but you're actually a bull in a China Shop.

13. Contemplating if you love your little enough to keep crafting.

14. Tie blankets are the enemy.

15. Finally going to reveal and totally surprise your little that you're her big.

16. Seeing the look on her face when she sees you and realizing all of the painful hours of crafting was totally worth it.

17. Knowing that you made the right decision by taking a little and you will love her forever.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
