A Letter To My Little

Dear Little,

You are the best thing that has happened to me. I loved you before you were mine.

While you were going through New Member Education, I knew that I wanted you, out of all the other possible Littles that I could have.

You are my best friend. I knew that you were awesome, but it wasn't until you were mine and I got to know you better that I found out just how awesome you really are. Seriously, you're the coolest, and when I grow up, I want to be like you, even though I'm the one who is supposed to be the role model.

I would do anything for you. Name it, and I'm there.

You're the person I want to see on my worst days. You are my best friend and my sister; you know me so well.

I hope to never fail you, because I know that to you, I can do no wrong. You support me even when I'm wrong. I can always count on you, and you can always count on me. Always.

Know that I will come to you with chocolate and Kleenex when you've had a bad day. I would go to the ends of the Earth just to make you smile, and I will personally hunt down anyone who hurts you.

Little, you deserve so much in this world, and if I have any say in it, you will get it one day.

Remember the time that we built a fort to keep all the sadness out? I know it was a bad day for you, but because I got to be with you, it was one of my best. I hope that I was able to bring some happiness when you needed it most.

Remember all of the late-night McDonald's runs, in which, despite being in your pajamas, you would get into a cold car to take me to get that delicious late-night snack? And the only thing you would let me do is buy you a McDonald's Coke, which is your favorite.

So many of my favorite college memories include you, and there are so many more to make.

Little, I want you to so boldly be yourself, because you are beautiful and perfect just the way you are. Those who know you are so very blessed. Always know that I love you, more than life itself, and nothing will ever change that.

Love always,

Your Big

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
