My Sister Is My Best Friend

She's stuck with me forever so we might as well be best friends.

My Sister Is My Best Friend
Camille Scumaci

"She's wearing my shirt, AGAIN!" shouts my sister as I walk out the door. There is nothing quite like a sister bond. We want to kill each other, but we would also kill FOR each other. Growing up the big sister is always the boss. Whatever she wants the younger (much more charismatic, and a lot more personable) sister to do, she will do. Now as we have both slowly progressed into adulthood (kind of) I see that nothing changed. My big sis says jump and I say how high. But now I do it because I’ve realized my sister is my best friend.



You're best friend is someone you rely on. Someone who not only protects you, but laughs with you. You can always count on your best friend to go to the bar with you, and lucky for me my sister is all of those things.Our parents always told us not to fight because our siblings will always be there for us when we are older, and as much as it turns my stomach to say, our parents were right. She’s my right-hand man and the Tina Fey to my Amy Poehler. We always have a blast when we are together and I know I can tell her anything.


Leaving my sister to go to school is so hard. Who will I watch Bachelor in Paradise with? (and religiously read Chads absurd tweets to each other). Who will steal my clothes and then try to convince me that they are actually hers? I miss her every day. But I realize now that once I’m out of school the first person I will ask to be my roommate is my sister.



The one to stand next to me on my wedding day, but also the one who I’ll have to calm down on that day because “her dress is ugly” or “the best man tried to hit on her” my amazing wonderful crazy best friend. My Sister.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
