7 Reasons Why Having Older Sisters Is The Best
Palmer Costley

Being a younger sister is a life full of ups and downs. There are messy rooms, clothes being stolen, weird fights, and weird demands. But with all the strange things that being a younger sister entails there are also a lot of great perks. I've compiled a list of the best things about being a younger sister, this is all from my expert experience with two older sisters.

1. CLOTHES!

I'm just getting right into the important stuff from the get go. Having older sister's means you get hand me downs and unending fashion advice (sometimes unwanted, I will admit.) 95 percent of my clothes are hand me downs, and that means I've had to spend a significantly less amount of money on clothes than my sisters. So, thanks for that.

2. Lots of advice


This, like the sometimes unsolicited outfit advice, isn't always wanted, but it's very helpful. Even when we don't always like what they have to say, advice from older sisters is most of the time very true and always very helpful.

3. You always have a midnight snack partner

Whether it's breaking into the ice cream, making breakfast food at 2 a.m. or driving to Mcdonald's in the middle of the night for some french fries, your sister will almost always be down.

4. You'll always have an exercise partner


Because we all know that after that late night snack you guys are going to be promising each other you're gonna have a six pack by your next family vacation. With older sister's, you'll always have someone to be dragged to the gym with or drag to the gym with you.

5. You'll always have someone to learn from


Whether it's from their mistakes or from their successes having someone you can look up to is a big deal, and an older sister can always be that, even when they don't think they are.

6. You'll always have someone to jam with


Car rides can be long and boring, unless you have a killer playlist and a perfect jamming partner. Sisters are the perfect jamming partners because you won't feel embarrassed by how off key you are or how bad your dance moves are. Whether it's getting emotional at how Taylor Swift has literally written your life, or knowing every word to Yeah! by Usher, sister's are the best people to share this with.

7. You will always have a friend


Yes, it's sappy, but it's the truest of them all. Sister's are the best friends, no one will ever get you or your family like they do. No matter how much time you spend apart it's never awkward between the two of you. Because sister's are the best friends you'll ever have.

Sister's although they can be a little annoying at times are truly the best. And I'm so thankful for mine.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds.
