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.

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.
