Summer has settled in. The excitement of finals being over and freedom has come to an end. Now, my days are filled with seeing my family, beach trips and long naps in my hammock. Something else has settled in though. I miss my sorority sisters. It's hard for me to believe that a year ago I didn't know one of you. Now, I can't wait for the next workshop. I miss my Big and my Twin the very most.

Big,

Do you remember the letter I handed you after reveal? My hands were shaking so hard from all of the love. I didn't even know you then. I'll say this again, because it blows me away. I did not even know you! Now, when I get into fights with my family members, hear a new amazing song, or even hear a funny joke, I want to tell you. I want to curl up in your dorm room and laugh at pointless things until the sun comes up. I miss late night study sessions that turn into ice cream dates. I miss helping you do your boards for your RA job. I love that everyone knows you and your smiling face. Remember that time you broke my Nana's oven? Me too. I miss you.

I also want to thank you. Thank you for first of all, being a kind spirit. I have never met anyone who brings more joy into the world than you. It inspires me everyday. You once told me that you always wanted to be a somebody to someone. You are my somebody. You're the somebody in so many people's lives. I'm not the only one who loves all the sunshine you have. People that I don't even know talk about the good things that you do. So thank you, for being the person I want to be.

Thank you for showing me what Delta Zeta really is. You taught me the songs. You laughed when I said the password wrong. You encouraged me to run for internal social. You tell me to love all of my sisters, no matter if that day I choose not to like them. No matter what event I'm holding, you and my faithful Twin are right behind me. You support me to the very end. You brought my perfect family tree to me. How wonderful it is to have a GG, G-Big, Aunt, and Twin to have on your side when the world is falling down.

I would also like to tell you, I can never thank you enough for this last one. Thank you for always listening to me. You put every one of my problems before yours. You have listened to me talk until I've talked in circles. You seem to always know exactly what to say, to the "It's going to be okay." or the "Please, Let me go beat him up." You've heard all of my stories, you've seen all of my fears. You know me just as a Big should know her Little.

I know you almost stroke out every time I mention anything about my future Little, but you are going to be the best G-Big. But, I want you to know something. I want to always be your Little. Being a Big will be amazing, and I know I will be crazy about my Little. Just know I refuse to stop being a Little, too. I love you, Biggie. I wouldn't be the person I am today if I didn't have you. I hope I am half the Big you are.


Love,

Your Little Bit
