An Open Letter To The Girls My Brothers Marry

Tiffany Grace Bianco

Hi there,

To you, I may just be the future evil sister-in-law, but I promise, it's nothing personal. When it comes to a sister's brothers, I'm bound to get over-protective and I may come off as mean, but really, I just love my brothers to the moon and back a billion times over.

Best friends, partners in crime, at times enemies, but most of the time they're truly my people.

Trust me, girlfriend, there is nothing in the world that will wedge the relationship that my brothers and I have. You could move him 100 million miles away and you will still not get rid of me. I will always be in your life. Why? Because you chose to marry an only sister's brothers. That's one pretty special and strong bond. You could be together for 24 years, but remember I will have known him for 18 more years than you. If there is any person who knows him more, it's me.

So, save the, "Oh, I love when ____ does this," or, "___ always does this," or, "Did you know ____ read all the 'Harry Potter' books in a week?"

Yes, I know. I was the one in the desk next to him when he wrote out every spell to 'Harry Potter' and saved it in a notebook! I know he wears the same shirt for three days! I've lived with them for 18 years. I know everything there is to know about these people. And trust me honey, as much as you may think you know, I've been their super secret keeper since age embryo.

Now as protective as I will always be of my brothers, I want you to know that I will always love and respect you. You truly got lucky. My brothers are the best people I've ever met in my life and any girl would be the luckiest girls in the world to have them be apart of their life. Even though they're immature, extremely messy and sometimes just straight dorks, they're going to make your lives truly incredible. I've shed more tears laughing with them than I have shed sad tears on their shoulders after a bad day. They've seen me heartbroken and have seen me not be treated how they want so trust me, I've got them whipped into total husband material. They are such amazing human beings and have the biggest hearts. I'm so thankful to have grown up with these beautiful souls and I'm so happy that you can experience them as well. They helped shape me into the strong person I am today and I can't imagine my life now and ever without them in it. I hope you appreciate them as much as I do because every day I love them more.

So, thank you for loving my brothers. They deserve a lifetime of endless happiness. I've always imagined them being with a girl who makes them happy every single day of their lives. I really hope you can live up to the high expectations I have for my brother's wives but I have no doubts you won't. I'm really not the evil sister-in-law I make myself out to be. Just an only sister who was spoiled by her brothers her whole life and loves them more than anything in the world.

Love them through the hard times and the good times, and I promise to be there for you guys through it all.

Love,

The Not So Evil Sister-In-Law

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.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.
