30 Things You'll Find True If You Have Brothers.
Mimi Hyre

Having brothers is both a blessing and a curse. They make you laugh and then proceed to make you cry 10 minutes later by either physically or verbally hurting you, but they're your family so you have to deal with them. Here are 30 things you'll experience if you have a brother (or four, like me.)

1. Getting made fun of every day for absolutely no reason.

2. Automatically being player 2.

3. Hitting one of them and then running away because you know that they're stronger than you.

4. Hiding your leftovers in the fridge only to wake up to them already eaten.


5. Always playing with Legos because your dolls always got decapitated or somehow had missing limbs.

6. Getting sat on as punishment.

7. Never getting to keep the show you're watching on when they come in the room.

8. Ending up with serious rug burn after a wrestling match in your basement.

9. Having to make a second sandwich because they already took the first one.

10. Being reminded how ugly you are everyday.

11. ...and how you have no friends

12. .... or a life.

13. Loading up your dinner plate because there won't be extras.

14. Getting woken up by ice cold water in your face.

15. Going anywhere in public and hearing "I know your brother!" from the same people.

16. "DUDE SHUT UP! QUIT CRYING! MOM'S GONNA HEAR YOU AND I DIDN'T EVEN HIT YOU THAT HARD"

17. Treating you like they hate you, until you meet a guy and they suddenly wanna be protective.

18. Constantly being told you were adopted.

19. Stealing all of their clothes but never having any of yours stolen.

20. ALL of your socks are stretched out.

21. Being incredibly aggressive in sports.

22. Being fine with using men's personal products like shampoo because you're used to using your brothers.


23. Knowing anything you say or do will be held against you for the rest of your life.


24. Fighting over who gets the bathroom first in the morning.


25. "Are you gonna wear clothes with that outfit?"

26. Nerf wars turned into getting shot in the eye and then pretending like they had nothing to do with it.

27. Falling into the toilet because they never put the seat down.

28. Realizing you're more of personal punching bag to them than a sister.



29. "You and your brother look so much alike!"


30. Accidentally breaking something of theirs and then running to your mom because you know you're about to die.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
