Why Little Brother's Are Our Lifetime Best Friends

When I was four years old, I was blessed with a little brother. It was September 6th, 2003. I remember being so excited with my grandparents at the hospital that day (also because that was the first time I ever had a chocolate iced, cream filled doughnut from Krispy Kreme). That was the day I met one of the truest friends I'll have in my lifetime. Here's why our little brother's are our lifelong best friends!

1. Little Brother's Keep Things Exciting



When you have a younger brother (especially when they're really little), you will never run out of pretending, getting into trouble, creek digging, turned-around-backwards sledding, Wii playing, and late night gas station trips. Keeping up with your little brother can be trying at times but you will always make memories that will make you smile when you start to feel the harshness of life.

2. You Can Always Count On Each Other



You will find that your brother is one of the only people in your life that has no reason to want to see you fail. You're on the same team. I've always been able to count on my brother to listen to me when I'm upset about something, to make me laugh, to hang out, and to help me out when I need it. And, because of the bond that is shared between a little brother and sister, he knows he can always count on you, too.

3. Little Brother's Inspire You To Be a Better You



Your friends in this life are supposed to naturally want to do better and be better. When you have someone in your life younger than you, they start their lives watching everything that you do. They want to go everywhere that you want to go, they want to do everything that you do. Having a younger brother has inspired me to be someone positive in his life and try to set a responsible example and be there for him.

4. They Help You With Boy Problems



Having a little brother usually means you're in for a lot of brutal honesty. And, he knows how boys work. When I'm talking about my guy problems, I know I can always count on my bro to tell me what I need to hear.

5. You Literally Grew Up Together

When you have a little brother, you're just naturally there for all of the big events in each other's lives. You know each other so well because you've spent so much of it together and are so comfortable with each other. Growing up with someone creates such a special bond that only you two will have.



This article goes out to my (not so) little brother who turns 16 today! I can't believe how the time has flown. You are someone I could not be prouder of! I love you, buddy!

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
