For sorority women, Greek life sort of becomes your life when it's time to get a little. Days when you thought you were going to get work done you end up talking for hours in the kitchen to a girl you've never met because you feel like you need to get to know them. Nights when you had not planned to go out you end meeting up with a cute girl that texted you needing a study break and dressing way up to impress her. I mean I actually wore heels to the fraternities the other night. Choosing a little in a sorority is like adopting a sister. We all say we love all our sisters, and most of us mean that. But your little is different. The connection is, hopefully, stronger. My days of being a little are numbered as I am preparing to take one myself in the coming weeks. I sort-of, a little bit, almost know what kind of girl I want my little to be but more importantly I want her to know what kind of person I am and I hope that in the midst of our crazy college lives I can be her person.
So if you're reading this future little, here's to you.
I will love you unconditionally.
I can't say that I knew you would be mine from the moment we met. In all honestly, I'm not even sure I will remember the moment we first met. But I can assure you that you will have a special place in my heart.
I promise to be a true and constant friend.
I will stand by your side when you feel like no one else is. I will stand by your side when everyone else is. I will even stand by your side when you're totally annoyed of me.
I will pretend to be your mom.
In other words I will expect texts from you so I know you're alive on nights out and breaks when I don't see you.
I will always answer your calls.
Whenever you need me, I'll be there without hesitation. Unless you get a new number and I don't recognize it because I'm not about unknown numbers.
I will contact you too much.
I'll send you pictures of my shoe purchases. I'll snap you with filters because I'm still not used to them and it's fun. I'll ask you about your love life too often and tell you every boy is not even close to good enough for you.
I will go anywhere with you, anytime .
From people watching while picking up shampoo at Wal-Mart to a crazy adventure in some city on the weekend, I'm there.
I will do my best to inspire you.
Being a part of this organization has given me more than I could have ever imagined. I never thought that I could be surrounded by such amazing, strong, enthusiastic, determined, and loving women. And just as my big has encouraged me daily to suck less, I will do the same for you.
I will take countless pictures with you.
I probably won't initiate them but I will be a part of them. Also, I'll take pics of you and your date(s). That's what moms are for.
I will spoil you.
My big told me that it's some unwritten rule that you have to give your little more than your big gave you. She gave me a lot.
I will never get tired of you.
It's weird saying that because I know I get so annoyed of my little brother like 24/7 and he's blood. So how could this be true for our relationship? Simple. My brother is 12 and you're the sister I never had who I got to pick. I chose you.
In conclusion, I think you're pretty neat and I can't wait to meet you.
