21 Times Jurassic Park Perfectly Described Life With Younger Siblings

Sometimes siblings are a lot like Velociraptors.

When people think of the "Jurassic Park" series, they probably don't think of their brothers and sisters. As for me and my siblings, we were raised on "Jurassic Park." (Big thank you to Grampa for showing us the finest movies of all time!)

Being the oldest sibling, here's my take on life with my younger sister and brother, as told by "Jurassic Park."

1. When your mom and dad say you should all spend quality time together

2. When they wake you up just to say, "A stranger is at the front door!"

It's like they forget I still panic when this happens, too.

3. My face when I see one of them with any of my electronic devices

4. When your parents let them off the hook for things you used to get grounded for

5. When you volunteer to make dinner, but they know you can't cook.

Come on, guys. I think I can handle Mac-N-Cheese.

6. "I'm closing my door" means "Come on in!" in younger sibling language.

7. Getting freaked out by a scary movie and both parents are gone

8. When you're trying to give them advice but they walk away instead

9. When you hear them use one of your famous comebacks on their friends

10. "What's high school going to be like?"

11. When you're all in trouble and mom is on her way home

12. But sometimes, being the oldest means taking all the blame.

"Save yourselves, young ones!"

13. Breaking up fights between the little ones

14. The face they make when you bring up the math test they failed at dinner

15. When you can tell you're all about to be in trouble (yet again) and you tell them to "be cool."

16. But they go ahead and lose their cool anyway

"Thanks, guys."

17. When they're totally lying to Mom and Dad and you look at their story like:

18. Anytime you require a password and they get it wrong

19. When someone messes with one of you, they should expect all of you to come fighting.

20. The dreaded, "Where do babies come from?" narrowly avoided

21. So, instead, you distract them with a story of how cute they were when they were born.

Sure, younger siblings can get you into lots of trouble, and you can do the same to them. The most important thing to remember is that you're all there for one another, no matter what. If you're the oldest sibling like me, you know that you're allowed to give them a hard time, but no one else is. Because, at the end of the day, they're your little monkeys to begin with.

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
