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 lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
