The past few weeks have been full of anticipation, excitement, and hearing the lovely reminder from our sisters, “I know who your big is.”
For some, Big/Little Week brings all of the high school knowledge of the scientific method to the forefront as they create spreadsheets to determine whose Big is whose. Others prefer not to make any guesses, and keep the element of surprise going. Then, there are the girls that are really into the idea of trial and error, who will guess every sister as their Big, and be convinced they are correct every time. All of these methods are perfectly understandable.
No matter which Big/Little Week method you choose, there are a few things that every new member of a sorority can attest to.

No matter which Big/Little Week method you choose, there are a few things that every new member of a sorority can attest to.
1. When Bigs begin making Facebook pages, you keep your phone next to you all night as you anxiously anticipate the friend request from your own Big.
2. When you get your first letter or Facebook message from your big, the excitement cannot be contained.
3. The first time a note is read in Chapter addressed to you that is signed from your big, you get all giggly.
4. The first gift from your big makes you feel like you are the most princess-iest princess of all princesses.
5. No matter who your big is, you will hug them, squeeze them, and love them so very much.
