A Letter To My Younger Sisters

Anyone with younger sisters understands how great it is.

A Letter To My Younger Sisters
Caroline's Camera Roll

To my wonderful younger sisters,

First off, let me say getting to be an older sister is one of the biggest blessings in my life. I may not have taught you how to contour your face or give you good fashion advice, but I can teach you how to use proper lifting form, how to stand up and how to be confrontational about what you believe in. Even though I'm the older sister, it seems like I've learned more from you than you have from me. Like how to be kind and genuine, and how to love something so much, you're willing to go practice it for hours a day. I am continually inspired by your drive. If it's for animals or golf, when you love something, you grab it and make your dreams come true.

Although I know when we were younger, I vividly remember us fighting over who got which Barbie doll, what we should name the baby doll and what game we should play in the pool. I'm glad we have matured and grown past that stage and are best friends. I know no matter how unlady-like or rude we are to each other, we will always have the undeniable bond of sisterhood.

I pray that you find a passion that you truly love and that you continue to be motivated to pursue and achieve those dreams. I will continue to pray for your future husband. I pray he is the godly man that He has created for you. While I pray for him, I also pray that you know that you are the moon, sun and the sky and that no one lets you believe different. I pray for your unborn children, that they become children just like you and I pray you know that you can and should send them to me often.

I am not sure what I did or how I got so blessed to have you as my younger sisters. Life without you two would be unbelievably boring. I wouldn't have someone to make Slurpee runs with or someone to constantly bug, and our house would be way quieter. I still find staying home with you much more enjoyable than going out. The nights of playing board games, going to the dog park or watching the same episode of "Friends" will always be fun, because you guys always find a way to make it that much better.

I know we won't always live in the same house together, or even the same state maybe; but we will always be best friends, and I will always be able to pick up the phone and ask you for anything. I will always be in your corner, and will always stand up for you even when you don't want me to. I am so lucky to have you guys as my sisters, mainly because that means you can never get rid of me.

Love,
Your big sister

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, 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."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

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.
