Dear Big,
Apparently it’s been a month and a half since we ran to each other, but it feels like so much longer. It wasn’t until I joined Alpha Omicron Pi that I discovered just how fast you can love someone, and that holds true with you. It’s super cool that we have the same friends and even cooler that we have each other. I know we didn’t know each other, but I’m so thankful that we do now.
I don’t know what I would do without our late night Sonic runs, constant boy talk, and our incredibly embarrassing dancing in our pjs in front of the entire chapter. You give me your clothes when I don’t have any, you listen to me ramble, and you even watch Plizzanet Earth and don’t get annoyed when I quote every line. You’ve never seen Titanic, but that’s fine. You put up with my weird habits and tell me, “it’s fine.” It is honestly so neat how someone I didn’t know until that Sunday in September now knows more about me than people I’ve known since my freshman year in high school.
While you’ve shown me nothing but love, you’ve changed me in ways too. For starters, I now own seven pandas. That’s seven more than I owned when I moved to college. You opened my eyes to the world of two pound bags of sour patch kids (which I’m still eating by the way). You even showed me that it is in fact possible to fit not one, not two, but yes, three jumbo jumbo marshmallows in your mouth (no, jumbo jumbo was not a typo, that’s what the bag says). But the biggest way you’ve changed me is by showing me that, even when we joke, everything is actually fine. Nervous about a test? It’s fine. Mad at myself? It’s fine. You’ve shown me that even though life won’t always work out, keeping a positive outlook really does make it fine.
I can’t imagine life without you now. You accepted me into your family and friends and home. You put up with me when I can’t think straight, and I do the same for you. Thank you for being willing to take me as your little. Thank you for getting to know me. Thank you for allowing me to walk into your world and shake things up, just like Sandy did.
You probably got emotional and you might have even cried a little. That’s fine. It’s fine.
Love,
Little
