I was thinking that a cool thread would be to tell the story of how your big became your big or your little became your little. Here's mne to get the ball rolling:
I accepted my bid in January '99, due to a lot of different circumstances I couldn't have my pledge ceremony for a couple of weeks. During that time it was Super Bowl and we had a super bowl party at the house of 5 of our sisters. I of course had a grat time getting to know everyone, but there was one sister who lived there that I hadn't met before. As the night went Amanda and I just kept talking non-stop. We talked about Red Wings (our favorite team), music, found out that we were both the most psychotically obessed Dave Matthews Band fans ever (seriously, I know we all know Dave fans, but we are mad crazy obsessed), found out that we both prefered classic rock to anything else (this was also during a big country kick in our chapter), and basically that we were identical twins in every way, some people even said we looked alike! Well bid day came around finally and who gave me my pin, but Amanda! I was so excited b/c she was the one sister I wanted so badly to be my big. Later on, I found out that she wasn't next to get a little, it was a girl who I ended up living in the house with; who I liked, but she wasn't my Amanda. I found out from the other girl that Amanda fought and fought and fought to get bumped up in line for a little so she could have me. I guess she even got a little pissy about it!! I felt so loved and wanted that people were fighting over me
! I think it completely changed my experience for the better to have someone that I would be good friends with even outside of the sorority as my big!
