1. Lifetime Bestfriend

No matter what you and your brother go through at the end of the day, he will be your best friend. He will always be there for you and have your best interest at heart.

2. Bodyguard

Your brother isn't going to let you date any random guy. He will intimidate even the best men. He is always going to protect you from the bad whether he is younger or older. You will always have a guardian when growing up with brothers.

3. Tough Love

Growing up you always horse around and sometimes got bumps and bruises but at the end of the day having a brother made you tough. They do not treat you like a girl they treat you like a sibling, so if you throw a punch, you better expect a punch back.

4. Constant Competition

Having a brother makes you very competitive in life which is good for teaching yourself you can always do better. Never settling and driving to be the best version of yourself can take you very far in life. I found it great to have to rise to the occasion to beat my brothers. Friendly competition is great!

5. Biggest Motivator

Your brother encourages you to follow your greatest dreams no matter how wild they are. He is going to support you to reach for the starts, and he will be there every step of the way to tell you that you can do something.

6. Teaching Patience

Growing up with a brother you have probably experienced endless pranks and goofy games. You have learned not to get so frustrated and to relax when things go wrong.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
