An Open Letter To My Future Brother-In-Law

She deserves everything in the world but you make up for it by loving her and treating her like the queen that she is.

An Open Letter To My Future Brother-In-Law
Katie Smith

I didn't think that anyone was going to be crazy enough to marry my sister but you continue to amaze me. I'm just kidding, I'm so happy that you and my sister found each other. Granted I didn't like having to share my older sister but I don't think that I have ever seen her happier than she is with you. I'm going to say this now so we can get it out of the way, you better take care of her or your going to have a crazy baby sister to be answering to. She's my best friend and my sister. She deserves the world.

I am so happy that you two have found each other. I don't share well with others, you can pretty much ask anyone that I know, but I'm happy that I share her with you. You have to understand that it's been just the two of us my whole life. Yeah, we had mom and dad but she was the one who I cried too, told my secrets too, and complained too when I thought that mom and dad were being unfair. Granted we pretty much hated each other when we were growing up but we learned to love each other. I guess I can learn to love you too. I mean my sister did. Ha, I'm just kidding. I already love you for the way that you love my sister.

Now I know that not every single member of my family is too keen on the whole barn thing, but I think that its amazing. I know my sister and she has never been the whole big church, lots of flowers, or the super BIG wedding. I think that the barn fits the both of you to a T. Good job. She deserves big but you make up for it by loving her and treating her like the queen that she is. Treat her well, love her, and give her wine and you'll be set for life.

In all seriousness, she has worked hard her whole life, she took care of her baby sister when needed, she worked her butt off in school to get where she needed to be, and during that time she found you. I don't think that she ever really had time off. She went from high school to college and then straight to work when she graduated. She deserves the life that you will build together. I can't be more excited for you both.

Love, be happy, and love one another. I think that's all I can ask for.

Much love,

Your future sister-in-law.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
