Happy National Siblings Day

Hands down, my sister is the best sister to ever exist

Happy National Siblings Day
Ruth Crepeau

Happy National Siblings Day! Today is a day where everyone can brag that their siblings, despite the arguments and annoying habits, and how they have the best sibling(s). But we all know I have the best sister in the world. I mean, c’mon, no one can compete with her!

She is the best listener. She patiently sits through all my rants, and even semi-pays attention when I need to vent about problematic faves from books I’m reading or shows I’m watching. She, in turn, will share her problems with me, because she knows she can trust me and give her a reality check if she needs one (whether she intended that or not).

She is so fashionable, which is the complete opposite of me. I appreciate how she cares to be put together, even if she feels crappy on the inside. Some days, lookin’ cute will bring her mood up even if that isn’t how she started her day. I like T-shirts and jeans, no matter how I feel. But when I want to dress up, I know I can text her for advice. Sometimes I really do question how we grew up to be two completely different people despite having the same parents and upbringing. But I am also grateful for the differences because without them I’m pretty sure we would be sick and tired of each other’s same old selves pretty darn quick.

She is headstrong, which can get her into trouble, but it is also what keeps her grounded and determined to accomplish what she has set her mind to. Even as an older sibling, I need some life advice and I know I can turn to her and she will lay it all out there with no sugar coating. She will be going to amazing places, but I know that she will always be there for me, and I for her. I could not have asked for a better person to fight, cry, laugh, live, and talk with.

I could probably end up writing a medium sized novel about all of the great (and not-so-great) qualities my sister has. In summation, though, every one of those qualities, good and bad, is what makes her so special and unique and irreplaceable. She is my biological best-friend and no one’s sibling can beat her.

Ancient Roman Kings: 7 Leaders of Early Rome

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.

Love Lost

Being the girl that is falling for the boy is never easy.

You constantly text my phone telling me that you want to see me and hang out, even though we may not have sex we cuddle and that’s intimacy in its own. I’m tired of buying you food and being there for you like a girlfriend when you consistently tell me you aren't ready for a girlfriend. I am constantly feeling I’m getting slapped in the face because I’m doing all these things and getting nothing in return. Every day I feel myself liking you more which is just crazy because why would I even waste my time liking someone there isn’t a future with. I just want you to be honest with me and with yourself, tell me how you feel from your heart, stop just saying you aren’t ready. You are wasting time telling me you aren’t ready because while you are “getting ready” some guy somewhere else is telling me that he likes me and thinks I’m beautiful and wants to date me. I’m not asking for much, but I at least want exclusivity because you ask me for all these things but in return you give me nothing.

Pretty Little Liars

From reading the books in eighth grade to watching the television show all throughout high school, "Pretty Little Liars"basically defined my teenage existence. I was completely and totally obsessed on all accounts. However, even though I loved the fact that the books and the show are starkly different, there are simply just some ways in which the books are much better. Let's take a look:

Recently I was blessed to be a counselor at a wonderful camp, secluded in a cornfield somewhere in Virginia. I consider myself to be a seasoned camp counselor, as I have not only been a camper for most of my life but have been privileged enough to work multiple camps with all kinds of different facilities. I have worked camps with multi-thousand dollar facilities, with zip lines, rock walls, ropes courses, and boats. I have worked at camps with amazing water sports, camps with paintball, camps with canoes and paddle boats and floating blobs or trampolines in the middle of the water. I have worked at camps with in ground pools and camps without any pools, and even some camps with go-karts. I've had problem kids, kids who refuse to listen to anything I say, kids who sneak out after lights out to meet a significant other, and kids who are every camp counselors dream.

The United Nations (UN) has been in existence since June of 1945. Since then, the world has come together to work on and solve some of the harshest problems that face the Human Race. Be it children in societal ills like Human Trafficking, natural issues like Deforestation, or issues of extreme poverty, the UN has worked together in an attempt to make it a better place for us all. It's the only organization in the history of the world to bring people together in a willing, peaceful way; a feat that not even the League of Nations could do in the Post- WWI era. Why was it that one organization failed, and the other one is still going strong, 72 years later?
