10 Big Moods You Feel During Big/Little Week, Described By .GIFs

Addison Cake

The week before big/little reveal was one of the most exciting, nerve-racking, and stressful thing I have ever been through! This week came with so many gifts and surprises along with some funny and devious pranks that were played on us gullible littles. If you have been through this process before I hope to bring back all your old feels, and if you haven't been through this yet and are wondering what it's like, well, stay tuned!

1. First day of the week

Giphy

The first day everyone wakes up excited and extremely nervous to see their first text from their Big and to get our first clues!

2. What actually happens

Giphy

My Big played the WORST prank on me! She made me think that I got a complete random as my Big.

3. Our first gift baskets

Giphy

The second I got the message that my basket was waiting for me in the lobby I ran down those stairs so fast!

4. SO MANY SHIRTS

Giphy

My Big got me SO many cute shirts I probably have one shirt for every day of the year. Well, that's dramatic, but seriously though It was a lot of shirts.

5. First letter and clue

Giphy

My first letter was decorated so cutely with gold, silver, and pink sparkles! My first clue that was attached to my letter LITERALLY described no one that I knew, I thought I got a random person.

6. Second gift basket

Giphy

SO MUCH STUFF!!

7. Last Letter and Clue before Big/Little reveal

Giphy

After I had gotten all of my letters, I opened up my last clue and once again it described a complete random person.

8. When playing Sherlock Holmes pays off and you figure out who your big is

Giphy

My Big slipped up when she put a fall scented candle in my basket because I knew that she was the only person who knew that those were my favorite candles!

9. Finally finding out who your big is

Giphy

Turns out my Big was writing RANDOM clues to me so I would have no idea who she was! Thanks Big.

10. I LOVE MY BIG!

Giphy

I LOVE YOU LOTS BIG!

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

The people that spend their summers at the lake are a unique group of people.

Whether you grew up going to the lake, have only recently started going, or have only been once or twice, you know it takes a certain kind of person to be a lake person. To the long-time lake people, the lake holds a special place in your heart, no matter how dirty the water may look.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
