Living With SIblings

"It wasn't me."

Having siblings means you have built-in best friends who will be there for life. Luckily for me, just a few months ago I was able to add three more siblings into my life — stepsiblings to be exact. There is nothing weirder in this world than being forced to live and get along with one or multiple people and the fact that you can’t escape them because, well, they are family is a whole other story.

It seems crazy to go from saying I have one younger brother to saying I have four other siblings. Siblings are a little piece of childhood that can never be lost. Here's a few things that happen when you grow up with multiple siblings or even just one.

1. Getting in trouble

It was always great when you did something but your siblings got in trouble for it.

2. "Can you do me a favor?"

The constant asking each other to do something for you — usually asking to run upstairs and get something.

3. When you need money

Always sneaking into their room trying to find extra money laying around.

4. Competition for the bathroom

You have probably been in there and your sibling bangs on the door telling you to hurry up.

5. When you fight over the front seat.

6. When everyone says you look alike.

Yeah, we don't see it.

7. When horseplay gets taken too far.

It doesn't end until someone ends up crying.

8. "I'm telling mom."

Whenever you hear this, you run for your life.

9. Getting called the wrong name and still expected to answer.

Seriously?

10. When someone says, "Your brother is so cute!"

Yeah, let's not say that.

11. The endless memories

Even after everything you have been through, your siblings will always be there for you.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

eye roll

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
