To My Soul Sister, Seasons Change, But We Never Do

Nothing is stronger than our friendship.

For the past 14 years, our friendship has been the one thing I've been sure of, because like you always say, the seasons change, but we never do.

You are so much more than a best friend.

You're truly my sister and it hurts me to even try to imagine life without you.

You're there when I want you and you're there when I don't, but that's what comes with having you as a big sister. Even though we bicker and annoy each other, if I could spend every day with you I absolutely would.

You make the good times great and the bad times not so bad.

You're the only person in this world I'm comfortable crying around, and when I feel like I don't have anywhere to go you remind me that your home is mine too.

You bring out the best in me and because of you I love who I am.

You're the reason my dreams are so big. You've always believed in me, even when I assure you I have no idea what I'm doing. Knowing I have your support with everything I do gives me the strength to keep pushing myself.

When I think of you I think of determination, strength, beauty, intelligence, laughter, love and a good time.

A day spent with you is an adventure in itself, even if we don't ever leave your house.

I have no doubt that we were meant to be in each other's lives, because everything about my life would change if you weren't in it.

I wouldn't know the value of a dollar.

I wouldn't have snarky remarks up my sleeve ready to be fired.

I wouldn't be so ambitious.

I wouldn't have a second home and a second family.

I wouldn't be so confident.

I wouldn't have a maid of honor.

I wouldn't know true, unapologetic sisterhood.

No matter where the future takes us, we'll forever be Em & B, because even though the seasons change, we never do.

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?

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.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
