5 Bits Of Advice For My Future Little
College Lifestyles

Dear Future Little,

First off, let me say that I already love you.

Second, I have five things I would like to say to you.

1. I want you to know that I will always be here for you.

Don't think that I'm saying that because I have to or because it's what every Big says to her Little. No, I mean it. I will always be here for you. I don't care if you are just bored and you need someone to talk to, or you have just had your heart broken again and you need someone to cry to. Call me, day or night.

2. I want you to feel like you can talk to me about anything.

I have a weird and open sense of humor, but I have also been through a lot, so I can give some dang good advice. If you come to me and I don't know what to tell you, then I'm going to look towards my Big and see if she can help. That's how this all works. We are a family. Me, your grand Big, great-grand Big, and so on. We are all here, and we all have been through enough at this point to help you through any and every situation you are stuck in.

3. I know it may not seem like it right now, but the world is so much bigger than this little piece of the earth you are surrounded by.

Your problems seem massive and everything seems so overwhelming all the time—I get it—but never forget that things could always be worse. So when you feel like you can't face your problems alone, come to me. We will face them together. Having someone by your side makes all the difference in the world.

4. Love is an amazing thing, but it's not the only thing.

When you tell a boy you love him, you better mean it. Playing with someone's heart is no small matter. That being said, you also need to realize that people don't always mean what they say. He may say that he loves you. He may say that you are the only one. He might be telling the truth, but he also might be lying. You need to be extra picky with who you give your heart to. If you have an off feeling about a guy, you shoot me his name and I will get to snooping. I promise!

Last, but not least.

5. Always be there for your sisters.

They saw something in you that made them love you in the very beginning of your journey with us, and you should never forget that. You need to make sure you are putting in effort with your relationships within the sorority because these ladies will be your sisters forever. It doesn't matter if you have been Alum for 10 years and you live 1,000 miles away, they are still your family. So go on those ice cream dates, have those sleepovers during the week, answer their calls during the random times throughout the day, text them and tell them how much you love them. It all matters and it all makes your time with them as active members so amazing.

Please read these things and always keep them in your heart and mind.

I love you, my future Little. I don't know when I will find you, but when that day comes, it will be the best day of my life.

Love,

Big

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.
