Pros and Cons of Sharing A Room With Your Little Sister
Did I mention said little sister is eight years younger? Yes this makes a big difference. As opposed to the age difference between you and Nut, BookSnob.
PRO: You never get lonely.
CON: You also never get any privacy.
PRO: The mess on the floor is not necessarily yours, which means you don’t get in trouble for it.
CON: Do to conniving and plotting from the little sister, you still end up cleaning up the mess more often than not (or at least is feels that way.)
PRO: You’re not the only one responsible for keeping the room clean
CON: The little sister has picked up your earlier bad habit of shoving stuff in corners and calling it done.
PRO: You always have someone to talk to.
CON: SHE DOESN’T STOP TALKING!!!!!!! Even when you’re reading a book and don’t want to be disturbed, this is a very great evilness.
PRO: Being the older sister by eight years, you get to make certain decisions. And tell her what to do in certain cases.
CON: She thinks this is reciprocal.
PRO: Being older, you get to design the room.
CON: Being a Senior in highschool you and your mom decide it’s time to find out how Little Sister want the room decorated so she can start collecting for her room design. This means your room is gearing up for an identity crisis in the very near future.
PRO: Most of the furniture in the room is yours, since you’re older
CON: Since your bed is a twin bed, and a bunk bed (or something comparable, but in our case it’s a bunk bed) You haven’t sleep in your own bed in nearly nine years
PRO: Even though it’s not your bed, you still get to pick top or bottom bunk
CON: After nine years of sleeping up top, you CANNOT sleep on a bottom bunk. You seep better on the floor.
PRO: The Little Sister can be an precious angel.
CON: She can also be a vicious monster, beware if she’s angry, even if you’re not the cause.
POR: She will sometimes let you dress her up in outfits of your choosing.
CON: Guess who used to get blamed when articles of HER clothing went missing. Yeah.
PRO: You alway have a test hamster for new hairstyles.
CON: EVERYONE thinks she’s the most adorable thing in the world. YOU just no how exparating she can be.
CON: She WILL in fact bat her eyelashes and simper at you in an attempt to get her way. This is nauseating.
PRO: No matter how many cons there are, I am thoroughly convinced that the only thing more rewarding (and at the same time more exasperating) than being a big sister is being a mother.
