When God Gives You A Little Sister

They are your best friend and worst enemy at the same time.

When God Gives You A Little Sister
Amber Selfridge

A lot of people have younger siblings, whether it’s a brother or a sister. You learn to love them and accept the fact that they are going to be in your life for the rest of your life. Having a little sister is one of the best and worst things to happen. They are there to annoy you when you don’t want it and they are there to be your best friend when you need it the most. No matter what, getting a little sister is one of the best things about my life.

First of all, thank you, mom and dad, for giving me a lifelong best friend who knows how to push all of my buttons. Having a little sister has taught me how to be mad one second and be laughing to the point of crying the next. There will be no one who comes into my life who will be able to compare to my sister. She is my best friend, my worst enemy and my biggest supporter. No matter where life takes us, I know that she is only a phone call away and that she will always have my back.

Growing up with her wasn’t always the easiest, but we have learned how to love one another and how important we are to one another. No one knows how crazy my family is better than her and no one knows how important they are either. Thank you for being there to go on random shopping trips to target and driving around until our favorite song ends. Thank you for being just as weird as me and accepting my quirks. Thank you for putting up with all of the nonsense of me leaving for college and thank you for choosing to come to the same school as me so we can hang out. I love you and could not have asked for a better person to call my lifelong best friend.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
