15 Reasons Why Having Siblings Isn't So Bad
Katy Gee

1. Getting you snacks when you are too lazy to get up

Lets be honest having them as personal slaves was kinda fun

2. Scapegoats

I mean someone had to take the fall, right?

3. They always want to help just to have you around


I mean ALWAYS

4. Remind how annoying you used to be


Because everyone repeatedly says they act just like you did

5. Personal Therapists


You are constantly venting to them. Also whether they want to hear it or not they know they have to listen anyway.

6. They are your second closet

This is because they always stole your clothes and had to search for them in their rooms

7. Test subjects

Telling your brother a colored nail polish will dry clear just so you can test the color on him to make sure it will look good on you

8. Helped you learn the best ways to embarrass them

9. Gave you babysitting experience

But you kinda loved being in charge of them, be honest!

10. Taught you how to sell an idea before you knew that was a thing

11. They are your personal alarm clocks

How they don't understand the idea of sleeping in, We will never know

12. They taught you to have personal space because they were always in yours

13. Setting booby traps in your room so you know they went in it

14. They taught you how to be protective

15. They gave you at home best friends

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
