7 Reasons Why Having A Sister Is The Best Thing That Has Ever Happened To You

Facebook

It is so cliche, but it is so true- your sister is the best friend you will ever have.

A sister is good for many things- an extra closet of clothes, a free ride and some quality advice- but mostly, a sister is good for being the best friend you will ever have. Sure, you fight and argue, but there are so many reasons having a sister is the best thing that will ever happen to you, and here are 10 of them:

1. Brand new clothes without spending any money

There is no better feeling than when you see an adorable and unfamiliar top with the tags still on it in your sister's closet, and knowing she will be sweet enough to let you borrow it.

2. A free ride and tag-along to anywhere you don't feel like going alone

Don't want to go to the mall solo? Don't want to walk into Cookout and face the late-night craziness alone? Don't worry- that's why we have sisters.

3. She's the one person who will always agree to spontaneous road trips and adventures with you

"Hey, you wanna go on a spontaneous road trip to somewhere new?" You know she would never say no to that!

4. Someone who listens to your family issues and totally understands what you're going through

Your other friends just don't understand how crazy Aunt Barb can be.

5. The mind reading

All it takes is one look across the table to know that she is silently telling you what a hunk the waiter is.

6. The totally honest and heartfelt advice

Whether you need a reality check or advice about relationships, you know that she is always going to be 100 percent real with you, and that you should listen to her.

7. A loyal and amazing best friend that you get to live the rest of your life with

A forever movie date, dance partner, and soul mate? That sounds like the best, best friend ever.

That's what having a sister is all about. No matter what happens to the friends and relationships that will come and go throughout life, it's comforting to know you will always have one true and loving best friend. This is why having a sister is without a doubt the best thing that has ever happened to you.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
