Why I Am So Grateful For My Sorority Big

Who would've thought that I would get my best friend and Big all in one person.

Why I Am So Grateful For My Sorority Big
Laura Picataggio

Going into Panhellenic Recruitment, one of the main things I was looking forward to was getting a Big. I couldn't wait to have a mentor, role model, best friend, and partner in crime. Not only did I get that with my Big, but I also got so much more. She is my best friend, my favorite person, the person who knows everything about me, and the person who will love me no matter what.

My Big is an incredible person. Not only is she gorgeous, she is also kind, intelligent, intuitive, hard-working, and she is so loving. She is truly the best person that could've been placed in my life as a mentor.

Through the rough times and the good times, she is there for me. She believes in me, pushes me, and cheers me on. She is constantly checking on me, making sure I do my school work, and above all, she is always telling me how proud she is of me.

Not only did I get my Big, but I got an entire family line. I got a wonderful GBig, GGBig, and a GGGBig. I couldn't have been given a better family line. Anytime I need someone to talk to, someone to rant to, someone to get Zaxby's with, someone to talk about life with, or someone to cry with, I have my family line who is always down for shenanigans and is always there for me.

I am so incredibly blessed to have my Big in my life. I will never be able to explain to her just how much she means to me. I love you more than words can say, Big. And I just hope that I can one day make you as proud of me as I am of you.

Thanks for being my best friend,

Little

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.
