An Open Letter To My Big

Big and little, we'll always be

An Open Letter To My Big
Taylor Keehn

I can’t even begin to tell you how happy I am that you’re my Big! It is crazy to me that we were strangers up until about a month ago. I’ve been looking forward to having a Big since the first day of recruitment, and now I have you!

I hope you’re ready for crazy times with me. I’m always down for whatever, whenever, and I’ve learned that dumb decisions make the best stories. I can’t wait to be able to tell my friends, and even future kids, about crazy memories we’ve made together throughout college. In the last week, you’ve already had me cracking up, so I know we’re a good pair! We are the same person, so I literally cannot wait to kill it this semester with you!

I promise to always be there for you. No matter what the situation is, I want you to know I’m always here. I know I may not have had the experiences you've had, but I’m always more than willing to offer my advice. You might not want it since my life is constantly in shambles, but I’ll always help you out where I can. I have your back always, and I know you’ll always have mine. I’ve always wanted a sister, and you gave me that. You’re literally stuck with me forever. I’m not going anywhere. Through thick and thin, Big!

I hate even thinking about you graduating. I know we still have so much time, but sadly it’ll go by so fast! I promise that we will make time for each other no matter how busy our schedules are and no matter what is going on in our lives. I want to create a bond with you that can’t be broken. I see my friends and their Bigs, and they are best friends. That is exactly what I want with you. I love being able to text you about the stupid boy who never texted me back and sending you hilarious Snapchats (even if you screenshot them).

Overall, I want you to know how happy I am to have you as my Big. I’m really looking forward to adventures, laughs and memories that will last a lifetime. I can’t wait to see where this semester takes us. Here’s to you, here’s to me. Big and Little, we’ll always be!

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.
