People assume twins have to do everything together all the time but at some point, you have to get out and live your own life. My sister and I did this by going to two different universities with two different majors.

Here are my top 5 reasons as to why having a twin sister at a different college is actually pretty awesome.

1. Coming home on break is WAY more fun

School breaks are always nice but when you haven't seen your twin in weeks there's just so much to catch up on between schools, drama, boys, etc. that makes it all the better.

2. You always have someone to talk to on the phone

Major drama, stress, standing in line, walking to class, just bored, you name it. Your twin is the first person you call.

3. Both of you basically have twice as many friends

In high school, you were together most of the time so you end up having the same friends. In college, you both get to make your own friends and then introduce your groups to each other!

4. Share an interesting fact about yourself on the first day of class? Check.

5. You realize how close you really are

Distance makes the heart grow fonder, right? You'll realize how thankful you are to have someone in your life who loves you and is there for you no matter what- even if you are hours away.
