First scratch!!!!!!
I just got my car a few weeks ago, and my stupid sister 
took it out for a drive one night with her friends and scratched my front corner!!! Not that bad of a scratch but still...anyway..went to the dealership today to buy a touch up paint and the lady said they dont sell anymore touch ups for cyrstal whites, only for pearl whites..Does this make sense or are they the same color but with different names?

Err... i kinda dont feel sorry for you... First, you let someone else drive your car, Second the person you let it too is female (puts on a fireproof suit), sorry but you get what you deserve.
But then, you can't even spell "don't" and "lent".

Incidents will happen sooner or later, it's life.
I remember when my car got it's first scratch (and no i'm not the one driving it at the time), i was pissed like there was no tomorrow. Then comes another minor scratch and from there i just hoped everything was minor. Feeling sorta died each time cos i accepted that it was part of life. Not good to hear. I recon the more pedantic you are with things the more chances of things happening to the car.

Anytime you let your car be driven by someone who doesn't have a stake in its ownership (brother, sister, dealer, etc) you take a chance. Sounds like you are young, and your sister is too. Two naive, inexperienced people = scratch. It's part of life. Learn from it. (Tough love on an early Monday morning!)

thats when I wished I would have gotten that bumper applique.. that would have saved my bumper from the scuff
