10 Reasons Why Having Sisters Is The Best Thing Ever

As a new college student, I have had to adjust to many different situations the past couple of months. Personally, one of the most difficult changes has been living away from my sisters. They are my best friends, ultimate confidants, comedic relief, and much more. I truly believe there is no bond like sisterhood, and I am beyond thankful for them. So, shout out to you, mom and dad, for blessing me with the BEST lifelong friends!! Lately, I have had time to reflect on some of the many reasons why I love having sisters:

1. As a kid, you had someone to play with at ALL times.

Remember the good ol' days of Barbies and Polly Pockets? Hide n' seek and House? You name it, we played it.

2. Sisters are your biggest cheerleaders.

Whether it be a soccer game in the pouring rain, a three-hour dance recital, or your debut in the school play, they'll be there!

3. You've lived together for years, so they know all your weird habits.

Even the most embarrassing ones that should never be repeated as long as you all shall live.

4. They give the most assuring confidence boosts when you try out a new look.

New haircut? WERK. Bold shade of lipstick? GET IT GIRL.


5. You have an endless amount of inside jokes for almost anyone & anything.

Having the same sense of humor makes for some interesting memories.

6. They're your support system when life gets hard

Nothing better than a sister group hug :')


7. You've mastered the technique of collectively sucking up to mom and dad.

Works every time.

8. Even the worst fights are resolvable; you can't stay mad at one another for too long!

From the silent treatment to a WWE match, we've all been there.

9. You share everything.

Especially clothes. Just make sure you ask first.

10. Sister sleepovers.

Food, gossiping, movie night. What more could you want? Sleeping in your own room is overrated anyway.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
