You rekindle my love for our chapter

True Life: My Little Inspires Me
Sorority Lyfe

Yes, I'm your big. I know I'm supposed to be the one who inspires you and gives you all the advice that you can handle. But the truth is that you inspire me every day.

You remind me why I joined our chapter. You're excitement on bid day and genuine hugs on big/little reveal remind me of the happiness of becoming part of something bigger than myself. Watching you blossom in our chapter rekindles my love for Greek life. You gracefully wear our values with your perfect, unique touch.

You are a ray of sunshine in our chapter. I know, cheesy right? Whatever. You are always one to participate in every event that you can. Not only that, but you do it with a smile. You are always one to help a sister in need, even if it's just a hilarious snapchat to make others smile after a bad day. You're the one I look for in a crowd of sisters because you feel like home to me. And you take hilarious selfies with me, so it's a fun time.

You take my "mom-isms" like a champ. You never complain when I post sappy flip-a-grams of us together or comment "my little is hot" on every picture you post. You let me be a total sap on social media and brag about you all the time. It's quite impressive actually.

You are a shoulder to lean on. I know this one is stereotypically supposed to be the other way around, but sorority life has taught me that everything comes full circle eventually. You have seen my seriously ugly crying face and still accept me, which is an accomplishment. Seriously. I don't deserve the support I have from you, but I am so lucky to have it.

You make our family complete. Without you, I would feel lost in our chapter. Thank you for giving me a reason to push through all obstacles and to stay grounded. You have been such a blessing in my life, and I'm so proud of everything you have done and will continue to do. You are the future of our chapter, and I'm so happy you are mine.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
