The time has come.

Each sorority has been filled with pledge classes of 70 to 90 perfect new members, and I personally still cannot stop whispering “they’re so cute” as each one flounces by at chapter.             

 For fraternities, bigs and littles are a whole different world to me. But the hunt for the perfect little for girls is one that you do NOT want to get caught up in.             

This. Means. War.             

Big/Little reveal is just around the corner, and by now we all have our rush crushes either in our houses or have cried softly into our pillows at night while their names ring in our ears.            

Each sorority does it differently, but we have all had our three to four “buddies”, basically trying out littles and seeing who we like until we fall in love. When things get complicated are when girls are “OMG OBSESSED” with the same new member, or vice-versa.               

Paddle Tramps and Amazon.com at this point hate me just as much as my bank account hates them. Bring on crafting season, custom t-shirts, and laying awake wondering if my future little will carry on my family’s legacy (because HELLO, clearly we demand perfection).            

For now, everything is in your new member chair’s hands. She holds all of the power, picking little-big pairings, AKA the clear highlight of the rest of your time in Greek life.             

For now, keep calm and craft on, ladies. Big-little reveal will be here soon. Things will be fine, just take a sip of diet coke and thank Heaven you only have to stress about this once…until you get your grand-little.
