6 Things All Sisters Fight About

Whether you have one sister or twenty, fighting is a constant. Although you fight a lot, it is only because you know that you can fight with them as much as you want, but they will never leave.

6 Things All Sisters Fight About
Anna Burnett

Sisters are great. They are perfect for late nights, ice cream runs, and movie marathons. Although sisters can be your best friends and biggest confidants, they also fight with you more than anyone else.

Here are the top six arguments I have had with my sisters.

1. Clothes.

No you can't borrow my favorite (insert article of clothing here), and yes, those are your pants you see on my closet floor. At a certain point, it no longer matters whether or not you like the article of clothing you are borrowing. The point of borrowing clothes is that they aren't yours, and you can sneak them into their laundry baskets and never have to do laundry. (This tends to make them mad for some reason.)

2. TV.

Yes, I understand that you want to watch The Office and I want to watch How I Met Your Mother, but I am right and you are wrong. At some point during this fight, one person will argue that they are so busy and will only have time for one episode (even though you have been fighting for 20 min). This is where you point out that all her things she has to do were her decision. In the end, you both ditch your responsibilities and spend the next two hours watching Just Go With It.

3. Music In The Car.

If I hear one more musical theatre song, my ears are going to burst. It's my car, so I get to play the music I want. This train of thought usually works until your sister (the passenger) begins to punch you (the driver). At this point, you need to cave for the safety reasons unfortunately.

4. Favorite Child.

I am the favorite, but for some reason, my sister has the delusion that she is the favorite. This argument will follow you for the rest of your life. Whether you attempt to prove it through Christmas gifts, parties, or calling your parents more often, no one will ever truly win this battle.

5. Front Seat.

Everyone wants it. Your parents will try rotations, schedules, and shouting "Figure it out," but in the end, there will always be a fight because getting the front seat means power and authority over those backseat heathens.

6. Getting the Last (insert item here).

Who gets the last soda? Who gets the last brownie? Anything that only has one item left will be fought over. Fighting for 20 min and not speaking for 2 days over who gets the last bowl of queso is extremely worth it. This is also a very good educator on bartering. Trading 3 cookies for the last bowl of ice cream is an extremely wise and well thought out decision.

Sisters. There is no one more fun to fight with. I would never trade my sisters or who they are for anyone else.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
