I seriously need a best girl friend. It's kind of hard to talk about certain things with Sean. I mean, I'm sure he doesn't like talking about girlish things or going shopping for clothing...and yet, he seems to have to not only play the role of my boyfriend/fiance, but has to be my "girl friend" as well. I've tried to get some girl friends, but I don't really connect with the ones at work. There is one girl there that I would like to go hang out with, but she has a busy life at home with her kids and such. I need one that isn't tied down that I could actually hang out with often.

Who's better to suit the role than my one and only sister? I know practically everything about her and what she's done in life because I've been with her. We've grown up together as close as possible. We played, laughed, cried, fought, and so much more together. I've seen her ups and downs and she's seen mine. The bond of being sisters is so much more than just mere friendship.

I haven't really seen my sister that much since she moved in with her boyfriend. I'm not mad that she moved out. I mean, that's what you do when you get older right? It just sucks that she lives like 45 minutes away. With today's gas prices, it's hard to go and see her. She can't drive, so she has to rely on others to transport her.  I don't mind going and picking her up every once in a while. I am going to do my best to see her, no matter what it takes...

Besides her being my sister, she's just an awesome person. I'm always so wild and carefree when I'm with her. She's so much fun to be around. I really believe that's she's the one and only person that really brings out the wild party girl inside me. I never thought of myself as crazy or wild until she's around me. She's so lovable and caring. Even though I'm older than her, I kind of look up to her. I find myself wanting to be like her sometimes.  It's so crazy how I'm so comfortable around her too. There are no personal bubbles or anything. It's kind of nice to just sit there and cuddle with your younger sister! :)

The point of all this is, I really need to start hanging out with her more. My life would be such more fun and meaningful. I don't need a bunch of girl friends, or even a select few. All I need is my sister, Amanda. :)
