Siblings are bound to fight, and sisters can easily get at each other’s throats. Whether it involves someone’s missing favorite sweater or premenstrual cat fight, sister’s will literally drive each other cray. Throughout our years, we have lost friends, made new ones, and lost those ones too. A sister will always be consistent. Here is to appreciating the blood bond that brought you two together. Here are 10 reasons why your sister should be your best friend.

1. An additional closet


If you’re anything like me, you love clothes. Being close with your sister means the ultimate double closet dream. Walking into the bedroom next door is essentially the same as going shopping.

2. Always takes your side

Any outside conflict will immediately be double teamed with the help of your sister. The two of you may fight but she always has your back.

3. Has talents that you don’t have

Maybe it’s doing makeup really well, or being able to do the perfect french braid, I am sure your sister is better than you at some things. Jealousy is normal but appreciate your access to her talents.

4. Always there for advice

If anything is ever wrong, chances are your sister is right there with you. Living with a friend always gives you someone to rely on.

5. Covering for you

Chances are if you have a good relationship with your sister, they will always cover for you in front of your parents. Be cool for them too. Make a truce.

6. Having a friend on family vacation

We all always want to go on vacation with our friends, but if we are close with our sisters, it makes it easy and fun without the hassle of making plans with other people.

7. Workout Buddy

Motivation is good, and friendly competition between the two of you will make you both more determined and healthy.

8. They Have Friends Too

Being friends with your sister’s friends gives you a whole other group of people to hang out with. It’s fun to be involved with more than one group.

9. No One Understands you Better than your sister

You live together, have the same family, same life style. If anyone can understand you and know you, it is your sister.

10. You automatically have your maid of honor

Being close with your sister is so important. Ignore the petty fights and appreciate the friendship that will always be there and last a lifetime.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
