For college students, college is a chance to escape the dungeons of living at home and learn to mature. Meanwhile at home, their families must understand that life will never be the same while they are not home. This is especially true in my own household, when my older sister Christina had left for college. While having an older sister was benificial in many ways, the incesant tremble of a heated argument rumbles through my ears knocking out any thoughts of how an older sister can be helpful. Shortly thereafter she left I had forgotten all the fights and constant taunting and began to remember all the times when she was there everytime I needed a ride somewhere, or the times when I would get stuck on a difficult math equation and she would walk me through it.
