Being the only girl child has definitely taught me a lot.

Realities Of Only Having Brothers As Told By GIFs
Emma Hagedoorn

I am the eldest child in my family, and the only girl. I have two younger brothers. Growing up, I always wanted a sister. Then, I would have someone to share clothes with, talk to about boys, get advice from and so on. However, all I got was two brothers. When you grow up as the only girl in your family, you learn a lot, and it really can shape you into the person that you are. If I had a sister, I would probably be very different. Having two brothers has really defined who I am, and I am sure it has defined a lot of other girls too. And honestly, there are some things only girls who grew up just with brothers will understand or relate to.

Sometimes, they are jerks for no reason.


(This show is so relevant wow.)

You get into fights, a lot.

They can always make you laugh.

Sometimes you just have to like play with their face... I hope this is a typical sister thing and not a weird me thing.

They often imitate you in that high pitched, annoying voice, which no one actually sounds like.

They will probably try to kill you, at least once. Or just beat you up. A lot.

They will be weird with you.

They're gross and you'll be forced into doing some odd things, like smelling their feet.

You know you'll always be a team.

Sometimes you really just can't stand one another.

'

You have inside jokes that just take a single look to understand.

They will always protect you.

They give great hugs. Especially when you are sad.


You have someone to annoy.


They understand you. (And your laziness.)

They encourage you.

No matter what, you will always be family and will always love each other.

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.

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.
