To My Little: You Are My Little Family
Anna Jordan

Dear Little,

This is crazy and cheesy but it is us. I watched you go through a week of gifts waiting to find out that it was me who is going to be "your person" in the words of the oh so wise Christina Yang. I know I mentioned this to you before but I believe that this is something that you should know for the rest of our lives. I want you to know or remember that I am here as your sister, I am here as your best friend, and I am here as your mentor. You and I we are sorta stuck together. I would never trade you for the world! You see, you lucked out you are my one and only little, small, and tiny, your all I have in my little family. But that is okay because even after I am gone and graduated and being a little adult in a crazy big world, I am still going to be your big.

I will be there for you when you need to talk about guys, when you need to talk about the good, the bad, the ugly of the chapter. I am going to be here when you feel like you cannot keep going to motivate you and tell you that I believe in you and I am proud of not only the amazing sister I know you will become but also the amazing person I am lucky enough to see you become. We will laugh together, cry together, and I will answer your calls at 2 am if thats what you need. I am going to make sure you get the best experience from college and from the sorority because if you anything like me, which I know you basically are, you are going to fall in love with the sorority. You will get angry with it and want to walk away and I will be standing at the door to tell you to take a breath and turn around because you love it. You will endure crazy stupid things in life, not only in chapter but overall in all aspects of life and I will be standing there saying really dorky things but the one you will probably hear most beside, "I am proud of you," or "I believe in you," is "Don't give you little one I know you can do it."

Through all of life's obstacles I'm here to help guide you. Even if you just need to call me just because you need to vent, graduated or not I am here for you. When you are sick I will make sure you have medicine, if not we will go get you some, if you are just over everything and just can't anymore, I am here to listen and try help you solve life's silly puzzles.

Of all things Little, I want you to always remember to walk with your head held high, no matter the circumstances, because you don't want to let your crown fall.

I cannot wait for you to grow as an Alpha Sig, you have so much to discover in life and I am glad I get to be there with you for it all!

Sincerely,

Big

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.
