Siblings are so important in life for many reasons. They provide support, company, love, and most importantly, criticism. I could not imagine being an only child because I feel that I would be lonely without my little brother. He is so much like me and follows the path that I go down. Moving away from home and to college gave me this new perspective on how important they can be. My roommate this semester was an only child and he was not used to living with other people. He apparently complained to my other friends about how terrible I was sometimes. I've lived in the same room as my little brother for almost my entire life and I kept myself cleaner than ever this semester. This is why I believe that living with siblings from youth to young adulthood can develop those skills that can allow you to stand to live with someone. This is why I will always be thankful to God for my brother and we will have a special bond forever. 

Is this it? This year has absolutely flown past. The amount of experiences that I have experienced this year is enormous. It is extremely hard to believe that I will be able to go through this extraordinary year three more times. Until me, my friends are dumped out into the real world. It can be vey scary. At least when I deeply think about how soon graduation will be coming. However, I have learned so much this year. It feels like that I have learned more things this year, than my whole career in high school. Of course I began studying something I am so passionate about which is the main reason, but there's something unique that I love about college that points my excitement for what's next to come.

We went to two proms, which cost a forture, but they were both a lot of fun. However, during my school's prom my senior year in high school, the dance the music choice was very upbeat and roudy most of the time. This what definately okay since it was basically a party, but what about the slow dances? I thought prom was dedicated to taking your buddies or special someone to a dance to have a great night. Even though I enjoyed the modern music of today and dancing to it like a weirdo, I wanted to dance to a few slow songs because I thought that was what prom was all about. At my prom, only two slow songs were played throughout the entire evening. At Emma's prom there was a whopping total of one slow one. This was very surprising to me and it kinda disappointed me a bit. Is high school prom changing or has
