When you join a sorority the first question that comes to mind is, "Who is my big?" A "big" is a girl that you can look up to. Choosing your big can be a little stressful. You worry if they love you as much as you love them, or if y'all are the perfect pair , but in the end it always works out for the best!
1. She has spent lots of time and money on you
During Big/Little week she stayed up night after night perfecting crafts and gifts for you. Not only did she spend her time on you but also months and months of saving up for this moment.
2. She is the one person who has your back no matter what
When you feel like the world is against you, you don't have to worry cause your big is there. She will be there when things are perfect and when things are rough.
3. She is the girl to help you keep yourself together.
Regardless if you are stressing or you are a complete mess, your big is there to lend a helping hand. She is the sister that comforts you after failing a test, or the one who calms you down on a Thursday night. She is your mentor.
4. She'll encourage you to do your best. Even when you don't believe in yourself, she does.
When you doubt yourself before a huge exam or when you don't think you're going to get that internship, your big thinks you're going to do amazing. She encourages you to be the best you can be and follow your goals.
5. Y'all are soulmates and will be friends for a lifetime.
No matter where life takes you, your big will stay true to you forever. She's the girl who will be standing by you in the good times and the bad. The one who will be there by your side on your wedding day and the one who won't leave your side when tragedies strike.
She's your role model and is someone special that will always be there for you, no matter what. She is the one person who is both your sister and your mom. Big and little relationships are indescribable. No matter what happens throughout life, your big will always love you. A big sister is the person who's been where you've been and someone you can call when things aren't going right. She is more than family, she is a forever friend!
