A Letter To My Brothers

You guys are annoying but I still love you.

A Letter To My Brothers
Allison Mascolino

To my two pains in the neck,

I would NEVER say this out loud to you but I love you guys. The relationship we each have together is something I don’t think I could ever have with anyone else. Yes we have our moments in which we argue and yell but to be honest I would be concerned if we didn’t. When I went to college this past year I thought for sure I wouldn’t miss you two AT ALL. but I was wrong because I missed you both a whole lot. I missed our jam sessions, I missed our constant trash-talking, I missed the occasional argument, but most importantly, I missed being able to talk to you guys about anything and everything.

When I came home a few weeks ago for summer break, I could tell that being apart only made our bond stronger. You two have both matured so much since I left and it is through your new level of maturity (and my own) that our sibling bond is growing stronger and stronger. I can trust both of you with things I never imagined I would ever tell you, but I’m glad that I can tell you now. You both make me proud with what you accomplish in your lives. It’s honestly amazing to be able to see you both grow into fine young men and it’s more amazing when I can say to someone, “Those are my brothers!” Don’t change anything about who you are as people, except sometimes being less of a butthole might help!

Love,

Your Big Sister

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.
