When You Give A Girl Two Sisters

When you give a girl two sisters, you hand her a world like no other. Especially the two I grew up with.

When You Give A Girl Two Sisters

When you give girl two sisters, you are giving her two mentors for the rest of her life. Two extremely intelligent, hilarious, and genuine mentors. When I was growing up, I wanted to be just like them in every aspect. What sports I played, what I wore, how I behaved, it was all based on them and thankfully they were two pretty wonderful girls to try and attempt to copy. I got to grow up alongside two headstrong and stunning women, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Here's to two people I could never imagine my life without:

When you give a girl two sisters, expect her to copy your every move. She'll wear your clothes, even though they are obviously too big, and she'll put on a foolish amount of makeup to attempt looking similar in age.

When you give a girl two sisters, she'll interrupt your conversations with friends and barge into the room when she is most definitely unwanted. She'll ask to hang out with you every single time you invite friends over and attempt to go out with you too, including places the youngest sister does not need to be.

When you give a girl two sisters, she'll let you dress her up like 'Boo' "Monster's Inc." and let you paint every inch of her skin in black polka-dot's with watercolors when mom and dad aren't home. Also, later she can tell on you for getting some on the couch as if she had no part in the fiasco.

When you give a girl two sisters, especially ones that are older, she'll snitch on you for sneaking around in High School, even though she promised she would never. Later on, she will cry to you about how sorry she is, in hopes that they won't return the not-so-nice favor.

When you give a girl two sisters, she'll try to keep up with you academically. She can see how smart and on top of things that the other two are, and immediately direct her life down a similar path.

When you give a girl two sisters, eventually she will be the only child living in the house. She'll walk past the rooms in which her sisters' used to reside, and miss them with everything inside her. She'll no longer have someone to fight over the bathroom with, and no longer have someone to binge watch "Gilmore Girls" with either.

When you give a girl two sisters, you give her a life full of tear-jerking laughter and trust. You give her two people to call no matter what the situation is, no matter what time of day.

When you give a girl two sisters, you teach her how to make it through all the obstacles that are placed in her life.


Thank you to my two best friends for teaching me all that I know; thank you for teaching me how to laugh and thank you for loving me unconditionally.

XOXO, see you two in May.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
