Life Would Stink Without My Built In Best Friends
Elise Devlin

To my people,

As time has passed and we grow up more each day, I have realized just how precious you guys are to me. A sister's relationship is different from every other relationship you'll have in life.

It is unconditional, comfortable, and truly genuine.

No matter what I do or say, I never have any doubt that you two will still be there at the end of the day, supporting me and rooting for me. You both always know what to say in any given situation, and will give me your honest opinions. There is no one else that I can go to for the amount of honesty that you guys can give me (in the best way possible, of course!).

It's nice having two people that know you even better than you know yourself sometimes. It would be hard not to, having been through it all together. Being each other's personal stylists for dances and proms, family vacations full of funny stories and jokes to look back on, shopping trips, jam out sessions on our drives to and from school, and always being each other's biggest supporters in all the sports and clubs we did.

Something I am most grateful for in life is knowing that the three of us have seen each other at our highest points, most awkward phases in the middle, and lowest points, yet never have judged one another. Instead, we just want the absolute best for each other. You are the first people I want to tell things to, and the people I share the most memories with. Put simply, life would really just stink without my built-in best friends.

Ky: To this day I still have yet to meet someone as cool and confident as you. Your fun-loving personality is contagious to whoever is around, and you always know how to turn any situation, even the most boring, into something fun. Thanks for putting up with my annoying habits of stealing clothes and always forgetting to unplug the straightener. I'm thankful we still have the friendship we do, even with you being in North Carolina while I'm living in Maryland. I've always looked up to you and that is something that will never change. Keep being the badass that you are, I'll forever be jealous of your carefree attitude on life!

Alli: No one can read me better than you. In my defense, I do have a pretty bad poker face, yet you never fail to know exactly what's going through my head. Just one look and both of us can burst out laughing. There is nothing I am more thankful for than the fact that I get to have a little sister to teach everything I have learned to. From boys, makeup, clothes, and advice in general, I appreciate our talks more than you know. Even though you are younger than me, I look up to you for your selfless and warm heart. I can't wait to see how great you are going to do in life!!!

I love you guys and can't wait to see you both so soon!

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
