Your sister is the closest person you will have.

My Sister Is My Best Friend
Kayli Breber

My sister is younger then me by six years. Even with the age gap, I would still say that she is my best friend. When you think about it, your little sister is just a mini, younger version of you. You were both raised by the same parents, went on the same vacations, dealt with the same hardships.

All of these experiences can really make up the character of someone, which is why you two may be so alike. Chances are that you guys may have similar likes in activities, and that favorite meal your mom makes. Your sister will be the only one that knows what its like to grow up in the same household you did. She will know the extent of craziness that your parents are, she will know the little rules of the home, and what your family is like. She will be the one that you go to to gossip and talk about things with. The only one that is obligated to stay by your side throughout life.

Having a sister is like being able to have a slumber party every night, even if you don't share the same room. She will be the one that you will cry to when you break up with your boyfriend, the one that will understand that your parents are being unfair, she will be your maid of honor at your wedding. The time you spend in search of a best friend, or someone to grow close to, you may not even realize that you already have that person in your life. The relationship you will share between you and your sister, will be that one that you always wanted.

You already have someone to take a girls trip to the mall, have a movie night, and paint nails with. Your little sister is one that you need to teach about the ways of the world. You will be the one she comes to when she is first learning how to do her make-up, when she wants to go one her first date, and what to wear on the first day of high school.

It is important that being an older sister you need to be a good role model, she will look up to you in many ways even if you do not realize it, or it may not seem like she is, but she truly is. In some ways it is like you are her second mother, its important to lead by example and show her right from wrong, before you do something think if you would want your little sister to be doing that, share your experiences with her so that she can learn from them, and so she does not have to go and make the same mistakes that you did.

Years from now when you look back on your time growing up, you will come to the realization that she knows you better then anyone as she was the one that has been there through all you had to go through. Never break a bond between you and your sister, you will regret it.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
