Thank You, My Sister

There is no better friend than you.

Thank You, My Sister
Nicole Lyons

You don't know what having a real best friend feels like until you have a sister. It's a sleepover-every-night type of friendship -- with the occasional stealing of sweaters and scarves. You get angry, then you get civil, and then you go to the mall together to shop for some new clothes (that they will soon take next week). But that doesn't interfere with the unbreakable bond that you have with each other. At the end of the day, she's the one you watch that Netflix series on the couch with while eating a giant bowl of peanut butter cup ice cream. And nothing makes you happier because she, of all people, will never judge. She knows you more than anyone of your friends and has been through it all with you. And no matter how much you have fought growing up, there are things to thank your sister for.

Thank you for...

1. Driving me places before I got my license.

Even when you didn't want to.

2. Your clothes.

Even when you didn't say "yes."

3. The best advice for outfits, prom dresses, high school, and boys.

4. Always having my back.

Even when I was wrong.

5. Hanging out with me.

6. Watching Disney movies and "The Parent-Trap" with me.

7. Showing me your new favorite songs.

So we can jam out to them on our way to the gym.

8. Loving me through my middle school awkward stage.

9. Trusting me with your secrets and keeping mine.

10. And most importantly, for being my best friend and role model.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
