A couple of months ago, I was given another older sister.

Thanks to AEPHI for blessing with me with another family member at my home away from home. She knows everything; it's kind of creepy, but awesome at the same time. It feels like I already knew her for 18 years. Don't ask me what I am thinking because she can tell you that. Don't ask me what I want because she would say, "Erica doesn't know what she wants because her and I can't make decisions."

We are the literal same.

It's scary that two people can be born into two different real families, but act so similar. When I am at college and homesick, I go right to her. She knows how to cheer me up like my real sister. From the moment I met her, I knew she reminded me of someone and that someone was my older sister. The best thing of having another sister at college is that she will always be there for you and will tell you the harsh truth. You now have two closets, just like home, and have someone to do your hair. She tries to embarrass you in front of the boys you try to keep a "low profile" in front of.

Ah it's just like actual home.

When I found out she lives 10 minutes from me, something inside of me told me this girl is going to be one of my bridesmaids one day. The day I walked into AEPHI, everyone kept saying, "...these girls are going to be with me at my wedding one day." At first, I didn't believe them, but now I clearly see what they were saying.

From the day I received my clues during big- little week, nothing sat right with me except the fact that you had to be my big. No one understands me like you. You knew most of my past without explanation; felt like you have been there all along. All the goodies and treats made me realize that someone just like my real sister cares as much about me. I love you so much and so glad I met one of my best friends and one of my big sisters out of 20,000 people. LML.

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.
