How to Live with a Two-Year Old
Quote Addicts

First get woken up at 6:30am every morning by having your sibling, male or female, step all over your face and neck.

Next, drag yourself into the world of the living by crawling into the kitchen to make some “seriul” for them. Make sure you get the right cereal or they will cry to mom or get you in trouble.

After having made their cereal, proceed to try and hide from your sibling as you begin to get dressed; cringing as they glom onto your leg.

Holding your pants up, waddle from room to room looking for your mother or something else to distract the creatine that is stuck to your leg.

Complain as your sister climbs up your leg somehow stuck to your waist as you continue to battle them to get to the door. Deal with having to hear them scream as you bolt from the house having found only a momentary distraction.

Sigh as they FaceTimes you, and smile at the undefinable cuteness they radiate over the screen. Talk to them on your mic as though they were actually there.

Return home to see them running around with the dog butt naked, as they see you and immediately attack your leg, as though they were the puppy.

Cringe as you try to work on homework and your sibling continually takes your eraser or pen throwing them about, or as you hear nothing. For if you hear nothing, there is something clearly amiss.

Flip all of your shit as your sibling licks your face and bites your shins. Having no reason but “I’m a tiger”. Laugh as your mother becomes the one being assaulted.

Try to relax in your sleeping bag, though it may be strange, have to deal with your sibling sitting on your face and ‘cutting the cheese’ making it unbearable in the hot bag. Their face cutting into a sly grin as they own up to the awful stench.

Grab your nearest electronic and turn on to a mindless tv show in order to get some peace and quiet. End up getting sat on as they enjoy the show.


Walk into the kitchen to grab yourself something to eat before dinner is made and be hounded constantly to give them some though they can't have any.

Experience a temper tantrum and be blamed for having them fall out. Roll your eyes as your sibling evilly smiles at you, their tiny sharp teeth covered in your sweet chocolate chip ice cream.

Help to distract your now crabby sibling as your mom goes to cook. Don’t tickle them too much or they will kick.

Try to cram in any homework you might have forgotten about and end up getting tiny handprints all over the page as your sibling has just finished eating.

Fight your sibling on whether they need a diaper or not. Potty training hasn’t quite gotten very popular. Proceed this with caution, for they know how to use their limbs for evil.

Praise God for the silence that ensues as your sibling begins to wind down. Now the silence can be counted as a win.

Admire the sheer adorable and vulnerable face as your sibling sleeps in your mother's room, far from you. Close the door so they don’t hear the fun in the living room.

Have a late night with just the girls, ice cream and Sherlock. Only to be disturbed as your sibling wakes up alone, worried that everyone had left.

Continue to watch tv until late at night knowing that the next morning you will have to repeat the cycle.

Go to bed and revel in the thought that tomorrow your own personal alarm will wake you up.

Finally fall asleep after thirty minutes of laying awake and staring at the ceiling dreaming of how you’ll be woken up tomorrow.

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.
