Why My Sister Is My Best Friend
My Family Photo

My sister and I are almost 5 years apart. When I was younger I begged for a sibling. She was all I wanted and then she got here. Let's just say I regretted giving away my spotlight as the only child.

We have a considerable age difference and it was hard when I was younger. I wanted to run and play but my baby sister couldn't even hold her head up. My mom would tell me to give her some time and then she would be able to do the things that I could. Well now my baby sister is not only doing things but she is outdoing me. From school to sports she outdoes my performances. Not to mention she towers over me by a good five inches and on a daily basis body checks me into the fridge.

Now that I'm going to be 21 and she is 16 I realize that I have always had my truest friend beside me. There is no one that I would rather have to rank on my relatives at family events with, laugh at my parents with, to crack up with during serious events, to run with and share a hallway with. I look forward to her daily twitter messages, funny videos, and Facetimes with our cat.

She is the perfect balance to me. I need everything to be in the right order or right place and my sister could care less. She teaches me that it okay to have chaos in your life and that you cannot control everything. This is something I am grateful for because without this gentle reminder I would surely loose my mind. She also teaches me to let loose and not care what people think. My sister has a blast where ever she goes and with who ever she is with. It could be in a grocery store or in the mall and she still manages to have her friends and I laughing until we can't breathe.

My sister means everything to me and I can't imagine life without her. She brings constant laughter and gives great advice. She listens whole heartily but responds only when she has exactly the right words. She is brilliant but she is also humble. She is patient but she has her limits. My sister is everything and more but she is especially my best friend

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
