Unforgettable Bonding With Siblings

Big Sibling Little Sibling Day is that time that freshmen and seniors are paired with a big sibling or a little sibling. Some freshmen may have two older siblings or just one. Seniors are the only ones who know who their little siblings are. Freshmen are not allowed to find out until “the big reveal.”

I was so excited to get a big sibling! I was looking forward to making notes because I love making cards. I loved communicating with a senior because they gave me pointers on how to get through high school. We made funny jokes with one another. It felt like we knew one another for a long time. We had things in common and things we both disliked.

I loved buying treats for my sibling! I thought it was really fun. I bought her things like Arizona ice tea, chocolate, and Mamba. My “big” would also buy me things, such as shakes, donuts, and chocolate!!

Exchanging notes was my favorite part.I found out my sibling loved Disney characters like me. She loves Ariel and Minnie Mouse. I was happy because I never sketched them before, and I finally got to draw them.

I found out that my sibling played varsity volleyball and that she knows me. It helped me out a little, but I still knew a lot of seniors on varsity. My big sibling couldn’t tell me too much about herself because she said I would know who she was. I tried tricking her a couple times into telling me more about her, but she wouldn’t budge. I was dying to meet her!!

The day finally came for the “big reveal.” It’s the day that we finally got to meet our siblings. I was so happy that the big day came so fast! I bought my sibling a bucket of different candies, a jar with makeup, an eyelash curler, and more girl stuff. I also got her a very nice hat that said “Aloha” on it, along with a picture of a wedding dress that she asked me to draw for her.

When it was time to go downstairs, I was scared and excited. We all went into the Senior Courtyard We had to look for the senior holding the poster with our name on it.

The person that had my sign was Ciara Ratum. I was happy that she was my sibling because she is super nice! But, that wasn’t the end.

When we all got settled, the seniors all traded and gave their posters to our real siblings. We were tricked!

My real sibling was Misiona Ribeiro. I couldn’t believe that they tricked us. Although, I was even happier that Misiona was my sibling She’s my cousin! Big sibling day was a memorable day that I will always remember.
