Big Sister

Hmm, I wonder if it's Internet safe to talk about this. How many colleges give you a big sister when you ask?

Oh well, I'll tell you about mine anyways.

I'm not an only child; I have a younger brother. But when I moved to college, I gained a big sister, too. There was a certain week this semester that all the big sisters ran around secretly pinning notes and gifts to their little sisters' doors. I got so much awesomeness that week, you don't even know.

She gave me chocolate the first day. Could life get any better?

But then the next day she pinned a self-made poster to my door with the most amazing quote on it! It totally made my day!

Then I got a necklace, which I now wear daily. x3

And finally, I got a very official-looking gift; in a bag with tissue paper and everything. What do you call something that's also handmade but then framed and oh-so wonderful and beautiful? Anyways, I got that and a blue cup, discovering then that blue was her favorite color. n_n

That night, all the big and little sisters got dressed up and went to a thing (is it labeled a party when there's music and snacks?) to find out who their secret big sister was. I met my big sister - and it turned out I have a twin sister, too! (She had two little sisters: me and one of my fellow firstyears.)

Such funness. Too bad it's over, but I still see my big sister around campus sometimes. Life is good.
