To My Younger Siblings Back Home

Please hear me out.

Oct 04, 2016

There's so much I can't begin to explain to you guys, especially since I'm not physically around anymore. Hopefully this clears up some things I've left unsaid.

I never wanted to leave you.

Believe me, I know what you're thinking. I up and left to go to school across the country and somehow you're supposed to believe that I never wanted to leave you. But a part of me just needed an adventure that wasn't so close to home. I needed to find myself in ways other than staying in one place and hoping for the best. Every single day that goes by, I wish you could be here with me. I promise, I'll be home for good one day.

Not a day goes by where I don't miss you.

I miss being yelled at for doing nothing, and I even miss getting woken up at 6am on a Saturday because those toys in the next room simply weren't going to play with themselves. No matter what day it is or what kind of conversation I'm having, you always make your way into the things I talk about. From talking about the latest I've heard about what you've said, to why I miss you so much, it's always touched upon.

I'm so proud of you.

Even though I'm now over 1000 miles away from you, I'm still your number one supporter and biggest fan. I still want to hear about all of your successes and failures, because I am your sister and I'm still by your side through every bit of it. I constantly find myself talking about something you've accomplished, whether it be big or small, and I know it's because I just wish I could be there to show you just how proud I am to be your sister.

You're the reason behind everything I do.

Some people want fame, success, money...whatever it may be. Personally, I just want to make you proud and show you that you can do anything you set your mind to. I want to be the reason you reach for the stars and never stop dreaming, because you've pushed me to do that for myself. At the end of the day, I know that I just want to make you proud and help you through whatever path you decide to take in life.

I love you.

1000 miles can't shake the love I have for you. In fact, I'm sure it's made our love stronger. I love you. I'll see you soon.

Love Always,

Your sister

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
