I’m Grateful For My Sisters Because Without Them I Wouldn’t Be Able To Get Through College

They are so much more than just college friends

I’m Grateful For My Sisters Because Without Them I Wouldn’t Be Able To Get Through College
Elizabeth Davis

Although I’ve only been in college for 8 months I’ve managed to find some of the best friends I’ve ever had. Two of which I’m grateful for more than anything. My “triplet sisters”, are not only my best friends but my sorority sisters and my current and future roommates. I can’t thank these two enough for being there for me 24/7. Without them, I honestly believe I wouldn’t be able to make it through college.

As a group, we jokingly call each other “The triplet sisters” because we all are within a half inch of each other in height and have dark brown hair and brown eyes. Even in our sorority, people expect us to be together whenever something is going on. It’s very rare for an event to be going on or us just hanging out at the house and there not be at least two of us together.

We’re basically inseparable but that’s what we like about our friendship. We can just hang out eat pizza, paint canvases and watch Greys Anatomy every weekend and be perfectly happy.

More importantly, though these two I will be there for me no matter what. If something happens to any of us we know we have at-least two shoulders to cry on or two voices of reason. We’ve all been through a lot in the past 8 months, between school, drama, and being homesick.

Being freshman in college isn’t easy but together we’ve made it a little easier. I know I can depend on these two to be there for me no matter what.

Most people worry about having friend groups of just three people because someone may be left out. But with us, we all have such different personalities and are all involved in many different things that it works to have three of us because there is always at least one of us is free to do something with another.

Whether it’s going to get Starbucks, going to target or just going to the library to study one of us is always willing to go and hang out with our sister, becuase, as our sorority motto says, “We live for each other”.

The fact is, that I am unbelievably grateful to have found two amazing friends in such a short amount of time. I know that the next three to four years of being in college together will be years we will never forget and that our friendship will last for even more years to come.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
