Why Having a Sister is the Greatest Thing Ever

...and why there will never quite be a bond as strong as a Sister Bond

Why Having a Sister is the Greatest Thing Ever

Growing up, having a sister can seem like the worst thing in the world. She got in your space, took your things, and made it her mission to annoy you. The phrases "I hate you!" and "Mooooom!" pretty much made up most of the dialogue during your interactions, and you made each other want to rip your hair out.

She stole your clothes and hoped you didn't notice even though you were both going to the same place. And you'd never admit it, but you did the exact same thing.

But as you get older, you realize having a sister is actually pretty rad; she's practically your built-in best friend. You don't know where you'd be without her, and the Sister Perks make all the garment-stealing okay.

She's Your Go-To Party Partner

She's always there to get a little stupid and fun with you, and you know you can count on her to hold your hair back when you puke later.

She's Always There When You Need a Little Confidence Boost

Because you can't take Mom's word for it when she tells you how amazing you are because, well, she's Mom. But something about a sister's word is sacred, and 100% believable.

She's Always There to Help You Out When You're in a Tough Situation

Self-explanatory.

When You're With Her, There's Absolutely no Judgement

You can ask something stupid like "why do they call hamburgers hamburgers if they're not made from pork?" and instead of judging you, she'll whip out her phone and Google it (true story). And, you know, she has the same sick dance moves and won't judge if you decide to show them off.

You Know That no Matter What She's Always Gonna be Your Go-To Person

Basically, just remember that your sister is gonna be the one that stays when everyone else leaves (and not only because she has no other choice). And, you know, she knows all your embarrassing secrets, too, so it's probably best to stay on her good side.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
