5 Moments of what it's like to have siblings, as told by Lilo and stitch
Tory Thomas

Full disclosure, Lilo and Stitch is my all time favorite animation. I even have Stitch as my phone case and my heart will break if it ever does, I am just saying.

Personal fun fact aside, I realized though, that I loved Lilo and Stitch for more than just their playful banter and quirky relationship. I think the true reason why I love this dynamic duo so much is that they describe me and my sibling's relationship perfectly.

Has anyone else felt like that?

You watch a show or movie and think "oh my gosh, that's totally you!" as you point to your sibling because the character said their prom date was going to be their couch – I am guilty as charged because I told my sister that and she actually considered it once.

For me and my siblings though, we all have a little bit of Lilo and Stitch in all of us and the way we display it is outright hysterical…for us at least.

If these moments don't resonate with you, we need to talk.

1. You are easily annoyed with each other

From blaming each other for chores not being done to being forced to driving each other places, to taking each other's stuff, and even just invading personal space, your tolerance level is tested like no other.

2. You could definitely be soap opera stars if you wanted to be with the level of dramatics

My older brother is the worst when it comes to not having things his way, I mean the world ends if he doesn't have the Honda, and the Honda only, when he comes home. If he has to drive any other car, life is terrible for everybody.

I know for a fact he's going to see this and counteract, saying it's actually me that's pegged as the dramatic one but listen up buddy boy, I will win that argument.

Granted, first child but technicalities.

3. You all have the tendency to be a bit awkward but only to the extent that you all would understand

A few years ago, my sister voluntarily called into a radio show stating where AND HOW she was conceived when I'm pretty sure the question was something like "tell us something interesting about yourself."

Interesting enough, don't get me wrong but not quite what they were expecting I think. LOL!

Funny enough they got a kick out of it and responded with "classy!"

And now we tell her she's not allowed to talk to other humans...ever.

4. You can't stand to be wrong

When in arguments, my siblings and I tend to keep going until one of us gives the final word – and even then we compete to see who it will be. Our voices will increase over each other's just to make our point, we'll use hand gestures, silence treatments, you name it, we utilize it. Quite exhausting I must say, hard being a sibling.

Then, when the final word has finally been said and the conversation doesn't go our way, we get super butt hurt about it, storm off, roll our eyes or say some bad words that I will not be repeating.

I may or may not be referring to myself again but let's move on.

5. You always remember Ohana

Through all the chaos that is a sibling relationship, you always remember Ohana.

Everything you do, think about and are, is because of where you came from and the family you are a part of that helped get you there. You will get on each other's nerves to no end majority of the time. But the one thing you don't always realize is that being there for each other without asking, without question, and without a doubt becomes a reflex.

When needed, you will go to hell and back 100 times over if you had to for them. Speaking for myself, I couldn't think of three other people (plus my parents) that I would rather run for, take a bullet for, or everything and anything in between and beyond, than the ones I get to call my siblings.

My Ohana is the reason I keep going every day amongst many other things and I can't imagine who I would be without them.

All in all, siblings may be stubborn and hard-headed, sometimes unbearable to say the least but in the words of little 626 – you're still good.

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.
