5 Reasons You Should Be Thankful For Your Sisters
Isabelle Schayes

Sisters are a blessing. Sometimes, you might lose sight of that because you guys are always bickering about who stole someone's brand new jeans. But, on some occasions, you realize that you would be completely lost without their advice and guidance.

1. Endless closets to choose from.

Now, for this one, you have to proceed at your own risk. You don't want to end up chasing each other around the house for a pair of shoes. If you get caught, the results could be disastrous. However, if you succeed, the results could be incredible. Getting away with it means that you have also successfully avoided any social media activity while wearing said outfit. You could always take the safer route and opt for your own clothes, but that's no fun. Let's be honest, nothing is better than getting away with it.

2. Someone to make fun of your parents with.

See, this is a given. Even your closest friends will never understand your mom's diet coke obsession and her other weird habits. You and your sisters have successfully mastered your parents' signatures and figured out all of their habits.


3. Company on Family Vacations.

Before boyfriends were allowed to come, all you had with you was your sisters. This was good because you weren't alone. However, spending all day every day with your sisters could end in disaster. Disasters include but are not limited to: trying to find a door to slam while you are sharing a hotel room, screaming matches at dinner and trying to run away from each other without realizing you that are on a cruise ship.

4. A Guide through Life.

Let's be honest here, as much as they annoy you, you don't know where you would be without their constant guidance. Sisters often lead by example and, lucky for you, you can learn from their mistakes. Sometimes, they don't exemplify the best behavior, like blaming you for breaking a straightening iron only to get a new one.

5. They Always Have been and Always will be there.

Sisters are your actual day one's. Nobody knows you better than someone who was raised right next to you. Even though sometimes you fight, you realize that sisters' are the most amazing gift you have ever been given.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
