Why Having a Brother is Wonderful
Michelle Beliveau

5) You never have to worry about him sugar coating it

You can count on a lot of people in your life to tell it to you gently, but when you have a brother no matter the age difference, he will always tell you like it is. If he thinks your make up looks more Rocky Horror and not so much rock star, he will tell you. Do you wonder if you he likes the person you are dating? Never fear, he will make it incredibly clear of what he thinks of them. With so many people in the world who are afraid to tell the truth, your brother will never be one of them.

4) He has been the subject to many tea parties/ dress up moments in his life.

If your sister was busy or mad because you hid her Barbie again, you always knew your brother would be down to hang out. The trick might have been to assure him that you guys can play “monster trucks” after you do what you want (even though you were suddenly too tired to play monster trucks when it was time), but he always would hang out with you. You wanted to play tea party? Well, he would be invited. Did not have enough people for “Pretty, Pretty Princess?” Guess what, he had your back. You will never have to play a game alone when you have a brother.

3) You always have someone to tag along with.

Sure, having a sister is pretty awesome. However, if she decides to go away to college, it leaves an empty spot for a wing-man. In steps in your bro, no questions asked. This guy will tag along anywhere you need. From shopping, to food, to even just playing put-put, your brother will always be down to hang out.

2) You will always have someone to defend you.


Your siblings will always be the first and only ones to give you crap in life. They can get away with teasing you, pranking you, etc. However, should someone outside of the sibling circle start messing with you, you can pretty much guarantee that your siblings, especially your brother will have your back. This is especially handy, when you go through break ups. We have all heard the saying “Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned.” Except in reality, hell hath no fury like a brother protecting his sister. Sorry ladies, I know we are tough, but we have to admit our brothers can come in handy at times.

1)He will be one of the few constants in your life.

There will be many times that you and your brother will argue. Many will be over dibs on the remote, or how he became irritated with you started sharing stories about past girlfriends. However, no matter what your brother will always be there for you. Even if you were not always the nicest, he will always do anything in his power to protect you. Many will come and go in your life, many as lessons learned. However, your brother will always be there for every good, bad, and in between times. So, thank you dear Broja. For always being our support line, best friend, real life doll, and over all partner in crime.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
