Growing up with two brothers is interesting and fun to say the least. I truly did love growing up with my older brothers; however, there was always a part of me that wanted some sisters too. You know someone to talk to and do girl stuff with! Instead of sisters, I turned to my friends for this, which was great and fun to have girl friends for those things. However, nothing could compare to the feeling and relationships I gained from having sisters-in-law. It was genuinely as if a prayer had been answered or a wish of mine had come true. Having sister-in-laws has changed my life for the better.

When both of my brothers found these girls, I was over the moon! I had never been so excited in my life. First of all, these girls were PERFECT for my brothers in every way. They were fun, hilarious, GORGEOUS, and kind. Little eighth grade me was ecstatic when they started dating them. Then when they both got engaged, I was so happy for them. Not only were my brothers marrying the women of their dreams, but I was gaining two older sisters. I was getting something I always wanted. They also fit very well into our family, which is another blessing. I cannot imagine life without them.

Now to my sisters in law, you both are the best sisters I could have ever asked for or been given. I am so thankful that you met my brothers and became apart of our family. I love all the memories I have made with both of you. I love and appreciate you both stepping in all throughout high school to help me get ready for dances. Lord knows I would have looked like a drowned rat without both of your help throughout those years. Thank you for all the advice you all would give me if I ever talked to you about anything serious. I appreciate doing nails with y'all. I appreciate all the car rides. I am thankful for the many moments of laughter you have brought over the years. Most of all, I am thankful for the opportunity to have a sister that you both have given me, I am so happy you both are in my lives. I look up to you both so much. I hope to be like you guys one day. I love you guys.

I do not know how I survived so long without sisters. I am glad I have them now though.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.
