Why Your Big Is The Most Amazing Person Ever

Why Your Big Is The Most Amazing Person Ever

That moment when you found out who your big was in your sorority was an exciting moment. Your big had left you many gifts leading up to her reveal. Along the way, she left you little clues as to who she was (mine specifically narrowed it down to every brunette with brown eyes out there, clearly a very rare combination). But after the long wait you finally found out who she was and the thought of her being the most amazing person, ever, just continued to grow. Here's why.

She gave you gifts.

T-shirts, food, and other treats awaited you in a nicely decorated basket from your big for doing absolutely nothing, even before you knew who she was!

She's always there for you when you need her.

Whether it's venting, what to say to a guy (hey or heyy -- the ultimate struggle), a place to sleep when you just can't make it back to your own bed, or someone to go out with when no one else will, she is always there!

She will never judge you on how crazy you are.

When the boy you are dating is in another picture with a girl and you're texting your big 20 million word paragraphs -- until you find out that girl is actually his cousin -- your big will never think you are crazy, no matter what!

She has shown you the ropes.

Friday classes? Classes before 10 a.m.? Well, those were only a thing before you met your big. Your big taught you that if you valued sleep and your social life, then those types of classes were definitely not an option.

Simply because she's her.

Your big is amazing just by being the person she is. As cliché as that may sound, there is nothing more amazing than this aspect. You would never wish for anyone else to be your big (even Beyonce), and you know you are the luckiest person to be able to call her your big. Every time you tell people that she is your big you can't help but have a big smile spread across your face.

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.
