Maybe it’s the fact that I’m having my first bout of transcontinental homesickness or, more likely, my sadly depleted wardrobe, which I got used to augmenting over break, but I’ll just admit it: I miss my sisters. As chaotic and oftentimes dysfunctional our relationship is, there are certain things about living with sisters that I never fully appreciated until I went to college. Here are ten things about living with sisters you take for granted:

1) Double Wardrobe

If you have a sister, you get a bonus wardrobe. Double bonus if you share the same shoe size. *Warning: “borrowing” clothes is a slippery slope, and usually ends in screaming and a never ending cycle of stealing your sister’s favorite shirt because she took your heels last night to get back at you for ruining her cute dress.*

2) Live-In Therapist

Having a sister means that, whether they like it or not, they’re going to be there for your venting sessions about that one girl you hate, freak outs over the hot guy who sits next to you in class, and the times you bawl your eyes out when it seems like everything is going wrong in your life. It’s like having your own personal therapist, minus the astronomical bill.

3) 24/7 Food Runs

It’s ten p.m., you’re hanging out in your room, and suddenly crave a milkshake. But you don’t feel like going alone. Cue going into your sister’s room and convincing her to swap her pajamas for sweatpants and jump in the car for your sugar fix. So much better than going alone, because you have someone to belt Taylor Swift with on the ride.

4) Chick Flick Movie Nights

Because your sister is always down to watch How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days followed by Mean Girls and The Devil Wears Prada on a Monday night.

5) Unconditional Best Friend

Cliché it may be, but this is the most underrated aspect of sisterhood. You can say the worst, most unimaginable things to her in the heat of an argument that you wouldn’t dare say to someone who didn’t share your last name. But at the end of the day, you know she’ll forgive you, because your sister is the best friend you get for life, and the joke is on her, because you're not going anywhere.
