When you go to school with a sibling, older or younger, a few things start to happen.

1. Family dinners look a lot different.

It used to be your parents and siblings all around a table eating moms home cooked meal with waters in glass cups and talking. Now its pizza rolls, some sodas on the living room floor crying because your favorite bachelor candidate was just let go.

2. You become friends more than siblings.

You'll still be weirdly closer than any of your other friends, but when you are finally on the same maturity level as a sibling everything falls into place. You can all of a sudden tell them things and do things that you only thought you'd ever do with friends.

3. You double your friend circle.

No matter if you are the older sibling or the younger sibling, you will meet your sibling's friends. These friends will eventually become your friends, thus doubling your group and giving you even more people to have movie nights with when you are busy procrastinating that 10 page paper.

These are just the top three things that happen when you go to college with your sibling. It becomes more than a college though, it becomes a true home. Knowing someone that is blood related to you is in the same town as you grow into adulthood brings a sense of calmness and peace to the exciting adventure that college is.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
