8 Reasons My Aunt is the Best
Jacki Hinke

I hope everyone gets the chance to have an aunt as amazing as mine. If you don't you're really missing out! So here is a couple reasons why I think I have the best aunt in the world.

1. She understands everything I'm going through at any moment in my life

She is always there to support me through everything. There has never been a time in my life where I couldn't look for my aunt for advice. She's always been there when I needed her.

2. She has made it a point to be at every major life event I've ever had, and she cheers me on.

She is one of my only constants. I can't remember a time when my aunt wasn't there to support me. There are not many people that I can remember who have always been in my life, but she is one of them.

3. She knows so much about me.

She knows what I like to eat, how I like to wear my hair, and so many other small details about me that most people would look over.

4. She constantly reminds me how proud of me she is.

Whether it's getting a good grade on a test or playing a high school sport my aunt is always there to remind me of my worth. It's so very rare to find someone who is as genuine as my aunt.

5. She always tells me what I need to hear whether I like it or not.

No matter what it is she will tell me how she feels about any situation. But she does it in the most gentle way possible because she is so kind and never wants to see anyone down.

6. She just randomly calls

She doesn't need a reason to talk to me, she just does. That's something that I love about her.

7. She's one of the many people I'm very proud to say I'm related to.

Because she is so beautiful on the inside and out. Even if I wasn't related to her she would be someone I would want to look up to.

8. She is so genuine to every person she meets.

No matter who you are my aunt will always be willing to help. She has the most kind heart and I know she would do anything for me or anyone she knows in a heartbeat.


I wish I could put it into more words how much my aunt means to me but there truly isn't enough. I hope that one day I can be half the person my auntie is because she is amazing.

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?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
