What It's Like To Have Siblings

As Told By "Mike and Dave"

What It's Like To Have Siblings

Growing up with siblings is sometimes a blessing and a curse. You shares memories with your siblings getting into trouble with you as "your partner in crime," or maybe just your sibling getting you into trouble. Recently I just saw the hilarious movie "Mike and Dave" starring Zac Efron and Adam DeVine portrayed as brothers who tend to ruin a lot of family events. As their sisters wedding is approaching, they have to find girls to bring to the wedding as their dates so they will stay out of trouble. While watching the movie, there were several moments that felt familiar to me that I have shared with my siblings. Here are some movie moments from "Mike and Dave" that anyone who has a sibling can relate with:

1. When you accomplish what mom and dad had asked

2. You do get "lumped" in with your other sibling's bad behavior

3. It is always uncomfortable to watch your siblings cry, especially if they are crying because you did something to them

4. But that still doesn't stop us from harassing them

5. We all knew to stop and shut up when we got "the look"

6. We encourage each other to do stupid stuff that could end up killing someone


7. "Why is everything a competition with you?"

8. The youngest child gets everything they want

9. Mom and dad don't believe us when we say "It wasn't our fault"

10. We put the "fun" in dysfunction

11. At the end of it all, we love each other in some sick, twisted way

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
