Why is a sister so important to us? Why is it that we run to them for every little thing that happens in life? Why do we choose them over anybody else? Why is it that they are our go- to? Why do we choose them as our ultimate best friend?



1. She's always around.

Sisters are like that annoying friend that's always hanging around, and you just can't shake them. There's nothing wrong with that, though. You love having her around to share makeup, clothes, and shoes. Not to mention the constant sleepovers when you were younger. Parents said lights out at 7:30 — we rebelled and tried to stay up until at least 8:45.

2. If she gets mad at you, she'll get over it quick.

Sure, you borrowed her brand new Kate Spade purse without asking, sure, she's furious with you for now and sure, she'll get over it in a few hours, or days. Sure, she wont talk to you while she's mad. But that's OK because you have enough videos of her singing Taylor Swift and doing fake makeup tutorials on your iPhone to last you those few days without her voice.

3. You're real with each other.

She doesn't like what you're wearing, and she'll let you know. She doesn't like the way you're eating your food, and she'll let you know. She doesn't like the way you're slumped over watching TV on the couch — she'll let you know.

4. She has always been your go-to person.

If something happens, she's always the first person you go to. If you break a fingernail or kiss Matt for the first time, there she is, ready to talk.

5. We have each others backs.

When you skipped school, she'd let your teachers know you were home sick throwing up and be sure to pick up the work you were going to be missing so you didn't get a call home.

6. You guys are a team.

If she wants some new makeup brush kit from Ulta, you mention it to dad a few times and maybe put out the flier next to his chair. You want something, she puts out the ad, and talks it up to dad. What better best friend could you ask for than one that literally lives next door.

7.No body knows you better than her

You guys have grown up together, gone through everything, and she's been there for it all. She's witnessed it with you firsthand. She's the perfect shoulder to cry on, even though she may need a shoulder to cry on herself. Thats where you come in.

8.She makes family gatherings fun

Nobody need be exposed to such things as your grandparents bickering, or your 8 aunts and uncles, luckily you got a sister who can handle it all with you.

9.People think its dumb you're best friends

Some of your friends actually think you're stupid for being such good friends with your sister and hanging out with her so often, you just kind of look at them and have to wonder whats wrong with them. So what your sister is your best friend. I'm Sorry you weren't so lucky is all I have to say.

10.She can always tell if something is wrong

Even if you're hiding something, she will figure it out. She can tell when you're lying to her, or holding something back. It will take her a little while but she will figure it out. it's in her sisterly nature.

11.She's your girl

When you need someone to laugh at your joke, give you a hug, or just comfort you, she is your girl. Your sister is the best friend you could ever ask for, and you didn't even need to.

12.She loves you unconditionally

Not to say that most friends won't but, your sister is on a whole different level when it comes to love. She has a love for you that extends beyond friendship, beyond sisterhood, it is something greater, it is a special mix of the two plus a little extra.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
