When I was younger, I would constantly complain to my parents about having an older sister. I would ask ridiculous questions such as, "Why does she get first pick on dessert and why does she get to choose which Barbie doll she wanted to play with before me?" The two of us would fight about the silliest of things when we were children, but over the years we have grown to not only tolerate each other, but we also have learned the value of having a sister. Honestly, my sister is my best friend, and where would I be without her?
20 reasons why having an older sister is truly a blessing:
1. You automatically have a second wardrobe. No, really, two times the clothing.
2. She's there for you whenever you need to vent about anything.. especially crappy breakups with boyfriends.
3. She's there when you need her to cover your back from your parents.
4. There's nothing to hide from her, since she's literally known you your entire life.
5. When the two of you are stuck in an awkward situation, she's there to talk to you and make it feel more normal.
6. There are endless amounts of inside jokes.
7. Even though you may fight a lot, your friendship never truly ends. It's a bond for life.
8. She's always down to get food with you or go for a quick Starbucks run.

10. People mistake you for one another, but that's OK because she's gorgeous!
11. The caption "sista-sista" is socially acceptable due to the fact that she is literally your sister.
