Siblings By Chance, Friends By Choice

Siblings are the first friends you will ever have, but they are your friend by choice.

Siblings By Chance, Friends By Choice
Sabrina Miller

If you have a sibling, they are the first friend that you will ever have. Even if you fight most of the time, they will still be your best friend. We look to each other for advice about everything. Maybe you are an only child, but you could have friends that are like your sisters and brothers. It is a blessing to have someone whom you look up to, no matter if they are older or younger, we look up to each other for everything and anything.

Fighting is a part of growing up with siblings, whether they are brothers and sisters, sisters, or brothers. Of course, we have our better days, but we get over it. I have a sister and we have definitely had some bad days, sometimes to the point where we wouldn’t talk for a while. We always figured it out and talked to each other after a while. All siblings fight, they get over it and we act like we were never fighting in the first place. We are best friends; we always will be there for each other.

Another thing is siblings are protective over each other. We can pick on our siblings as much as we want, but as soon as someone else does, they are going down. Siblings look out for each other and we take care of one another, even when we fight. There’s just something about when someone talks about your sibling that just ignites a fire inside of you and immediately makes us mad. It is our protective instincts; to protect the people that we love, no matter what. They will do the same for us, whether they are our little siblings or not.

All siblings are different; we mean well to each other. Each of us want what is best for our siblings. We will protect each other with our lives. Our siblings are our first friends. They care for each other, have fun like best friends, and will give up anything to make sure that each other is okay and safe. We are always there for one another, no matter what the cost, if there is a cost at all.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
