bigs!
Not to discourage you, I think my situation was unique...
I've had three bigs and two of them sucked!
The first one was my last choice, she was totally uninvolved, we had nothing in common etc. etc. Nice girl, smart etc, but not a friend. Then my chapter was in the (in my opinion) terrible habit of "adopting" people whose bigs had graduated etc.
I LOVED this one girl and asked her to adopt me and she did, well that's the last I saw of her practically. We were such good friends and then, timing really-not her fault or mine-she was just not around. She had all this boy drama (ladies you can relate I am sure)I was always doing things for her-candy, valentines, x-mas, birthday cards, have a great week notes-you know all that stuff us girlie girls do! From her-NOTHING.
Then the month before I graduated a girl-who I am still great friends with adopted me in a suprise ceremony. She came into the sorority after me, but she was just the best!
My friend Leigh's big sister at Mercer was a huge Coke head (I don't mean coca cola either)and was bulimic and was a total ho. She was like the nicest person you'll ever meet, cool,friendly, always buying her gifts, but she'd always disappear into the bathroom for really long periods of time.....wierd.
What's even better than getting a big is when you get a little. Mine and I are so tight! During rush, all the girls whre like "I want a big/little relationship like you and so and so"> That's the highest compliment!
