An Open Letter To My Big Brother

After all of the laughter, tears, wrestling matches and setting the house on fire twice (sorry Mom and Dad), it's nice to have those memories with you.

An Open Letter To My Big Brother

Dear Bro,

Even though you get on my last nerve, I wouldn't trade you for a million dollars... I think. With all jokes aside, I wouldn't trade our movie nights and late night Sonic runs for anything. Though we may not talk all the time because you work a lot and you're in college, I still consider you to be one of my best friends. I appreciate everything you have done for me, like sending me hilarious Vines and buying me food when I tell you I don't have any money, but we both know I do.

Thank you for being one of the few people willing to watch a scary movie with me and letting me turn down the volume at the really scary parts. Thank you for introducing me and teaching me how to be a boss in speech and debate. Thank you for always being there for me when I need you. Knowing that you'll always be there, whether it's to talk about some dumb boy or why AP sucks, makes life a little easier.

Sure we have our differences, and we don't have our deep conversations as often as we used to, but we never really grow apart. We'll always have that special connection.

The reason I wrote this was to tell you that I love you. Though you may not hear it that often, I do. After all of the laughter, tears, wrestling matches and setting the house on fire twice (sorry Mom and Dad), it's nice to have those memories and to know that I can look forward to having even more fun with you. You're the best brother any sister could ask for.

Make good choices,

Your Favorite Kid, Loving Sister and Best Friend

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
