A Letter To My Older Sisters

God may have given me sisters, but I am lucky enough to call you my best friends.

Goofballs,

Well I guess it was only a matter of time huh? You guys have literally been by my side for all of my life and there has never been a time that you have left me in a time of need. I guess this is quite over due, but better late than never...right? So this is for you, my best friends, my role models, my heroes, my sisters.

When we were little you would always play pranks on me. You would put Halloween masks on my alarm clock, or wear them around to scare me. You would essentially make me scared of the dark without knowing it. You used me as a little servant. You told me “ I’ll give you a dollar if you….” and by now I think you owe me over $50, but that’s besides the point. You taught me how to play soccer and softball, I looked up to you guys for everything and wanted to be just like you.

You two helped me grow up, yes our relationship wasn’t always sunshine and roses and we got into a lot of fights but being able to watch you grow and mature only made me want to do the same. Seeing the way you handled situations so flawlessly and going the extra mile for someone you love showed me that I had the best role models in the world. You never let me believe I wasn’t worth someone’s time or that I would never be enough because you were always there when something went wrong.

Through the past 19 years of my life, it is safe to say I have seen some pretty dark days. No matter how dark and gloomy I may have been, I know I have you guys to help me push through and do things for myself. You have taught me that there is no way to describe the feeling of love you get from a sister. You can’t explain all the stupid and goofy moments we have shared along with all the times we have ranted about mom or the dumb stories from the LIRR that day.

You guys have helped shape me into who I am today and I cannot thank you enough for that. All our fights now seem pointless, and every time we got mad or annoyed is irrelevant. Being able to grow up looking to both of you for guidance and advice is all I could ever ask for, but I’m glad I ask for more. I’m lucky that I was given two older sisters, but I am beyond grateful I have two best friends. I love you more than you will ever know!

All my love,

Your Baby Sister

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
