An Open Letter to My Sister

Dear Missy,

I know I don't really say it, but I look up to you in so many ways. I know there were a solid couple of years where you just simply didn't like me, and you asked mom to give me back to the hospital when I was born, but I'm glad that at least somewhat changed. I realize more and more as I get older how lucky I am to have you as my older sister.

Thank you for always being there for me, whether it's just to say hi and annoy you, or if it's when I need someone to cry to. I know I can go to you for anything and you'll always be there to listen, and I appreciate it more than I could ever say. Thank you for always being the person I can count on to be on my side. I know you always want the best for me, and won't hesitate to tell me what you think that is.

Thank you for having a better taste in clothes than me, so I can always find something I like when I steal stuff from your room. Thank you for always being there to annoy mom with me (sorry mom, we love you).You're basically my built-in best friend, which, even if you don't want it, you're stuck with me for life. I mean, who else are you going to annoy by randomly walking in their room, to then say nothing, and just leave. I'm so lucky to have you as my older sister, and I'm equally as lucky to be able to be so close to you. Thank you for being my sister, and for also being my best friend.

Love,

your annoying little sister

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.
