What No One Tells You About Leaving Your Sister For College

If you have a relationship with your sister like I do, she will be by far the greatest friend you’ve had. You spend every day with each other and even though after a while you get annoyed, you would never want it any different. In my case of being the youngest, I could never imagine my life without her and her instantly being my role model. This is what made the split of me going to college so hard. I never realized how many things that would change and things I would miss; here are 19,for the 19 years we have been sisters, that I have personally experienced.

1. You will lose your #1 supporter always being by your side

2. They become the main person you FaceTime

3.Your sister is living her life and a part of you actually gets jealous

4.You will lose the privilege of having a permanent passenger in your car

5.No hug will be like your sister’s

6. You lose a strong shoulder to cry on

7. You can no longer go see your sister whenever you want

8. You no longer have clothes to “barrow” or have stolen from you.

9. You actually begin to miss matching

10. Both of you begin to realize stuff that you would normally do together is not the same anymore

11. No one will ever have your back like your sister does

12. Your sister no longer seems to be your second mother


13. You realize no one truly understands you like your sister does


14. Weekends home being to revolve around when your sister is off for the weekend


15. No one but your sister truly knows your family and why you act the way you do

16.You now have to take on the world by yourself because your biggest defender is gone

17. You will miss your big sis always letting you have what she has out of love


18. No one tells you how hard the goodbye is

19. You learn just how strong sisterly love and a sisterly bond really is

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
