Alumni/ae: Are you still in contact with your bigs, littles, or grandlittles?

My Big and I are both in school again, but we check in on each other every few weeks or so. Also-my little is teaching now so I talk to her every couple weeks or so as well. It's funny, my big and little are both in the same city, but they weren't active at the same time, so they don't really know one another.

And my poor grandlittle! She didn't get a little this year b/c there weren't enough to go around... but she's a great too! Hopefully the family will be reunited at homecoming!

At 9 years following graduation, here's where I stand:

I am in constant contact with 2 out of 3 of my littles. Saw #2 last night at our alum meeting and talked to #3 last night as well, when she was stuck in the Denver airport. Sadly, no clue where little #1 is. I don't see or talk to my big nearly enough. She was only in school with me for 1 year so we missed out on a lot of the "collegiate closeness" and then we lived in different towns (although only 1 hour apart). Now that we're in the same town we don't see or talk to each other enough. We had a great happy hour this summer, just the 2 of us, and then she met me and some of my friends out later that week...and now I haven't heard from her since August. Oh, well...I still love her!

In any event, I can honestly say that my 2 littles are two of my best friends...the ones you tell everything to, and the ones who pick you up when you're down...don't know what I'd do without them!

I just talked to my little after a few years! I can't believe I graduated 10 years ago!

I have been emailing one of my (pledge)sisters for the past few months. What I find really interesting is that although I have maintained contact with 2 best friends from HS, a few work friends, etc., this sister knows me better than anyone. I can go a year without talking to her, and it's like it was yesterday.

I am still very close with my greek family. I talk to my big all the time. My little is one of my best friends and she's one of my bridesmaids in my upcoming wedding. I talk to my little brother every month or so. I haven't talked to my grandlittle or great-grandlittle in a while although Myspace has helped to keep me updated on their lives. My little still keeps in contact with them so I find out what's going on with them through her. The only one I don't keep in contact with is my big brother; we lost touch after he graduated college.

My diamond sister and I were never very very close and she transfered to FSU at the end of the school year when I pledged so we lost touch. Nice girl, though. I am closest to my alpha diamond sister. I also keep in touch with my little brother and "extended Greek family" through My Space. Have lost touch with a few here and there.
