For a lot of young women, your twenties is when things start to fall into place. Some girls get married, have kids, some graduate college and start their first jobs. This is also the time that things can seriously fall apart such as your first true heartbreak, or your first real-world rejection.

Who better to have at your side than the girls that have literally been next to you since birth? Your sisters are going to be your best support system throughout this interesting time in your life, and you're lucky for it, and here's why:

1. When your parents are asking you too many questions about your future, you always have each other's back.

"Are you dating?" "Do you have plans after graduation??"

2. If that doesn't work, you can always throw them into the line of fire.

"No dad, I don't have a job yet but, did you hear about your other daughter's speeding ticket?"

3. When you are all home for the holidays, it's AMAZING.


You act like it's been years when it's actually only been a few weeks.

4. Stealing each other's clothes is a greater offense now that you're paying for them with your own money.

Now you have to be extra sneaky.

5. Even your wine nights are more grown up.

You each get your own bottle instead of splitting a bag.

6. Even if you don't have your life together just yet, you have a sister who does and will (most likely) take care of you.


Why have sisters if they don't let you crash on their couch for a few weeks?


7. Name a better group to have a girls night with.


No one can party together like sisters who just finished screaming at each other.

8. They know you better than you know yourself, so they can spot a bad idea from a mile away.


They're the ones that will tell you, NO the third time is not the charm with Chad.


9. No matter how much you fight, you know they will always be there for life's most important moments.


If you can get through sharing a bathroom in high school, you can get through pretty much anything.

10. And those moments can be pretty fun.


No one wants to celebrate your wedding more than the girls who saw you through your middle school gaucho phase.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
