Rule #1 to Surviving Sisterhood


Hey, I'm Madi .I am the third of four children. There are two boys and two girls, hence the blog name 2 on 2. In my 14 years I have learned a few things about surviving sisterhood. In this blog I will share those things with you.  My future posts will most likely consists of a rule to help you survive sisterhood, a personal anecdote in which this rule applies, and a joke about sisters. Rule #1 to Surviving Sisterhood is if you want to keep something, hide it. Oh, and here's another tip do not brag to your siblings about the fact that you hid something and they haven't found it yet. They will tell your mother and get you in trouble. My older brother, sister, and I are all obsessed with Ramen noodles. We cannot agree on the best flavor. Their favorite flavor is shrimp; mine is beef. One thing we do agree however is the worst flavor, chicken. Even so, that is the kind my mother always buys. Last week she bought chicken and beef; ten of each. I put 5 of each out in the snack bowl for the family. Then I put 5 chicken and 5 beef in a secret place. My brother is 18 and eats like a mad man so 20 Ramen go 3 days max (if that). I hid 10 so that even when we ran out, there would still be more for me. One day my sister was yelling about how chicken was all that was left. I told her that I knew where more beef was, but she couldn't have any. She told my mom (what a childish thing for a 16 year old to do, but she did it anyway). My mom yelled at me, a lot, about how I didn't pay for it so I should share. Now I'm starving and craving Ramen, but all that is left is the stupid chicken flavor. 

Joke about Sisters

Once upon a time there were three sisters, ages 92, 94 and 96, and they all lived together. 

One night the 96 year old ran a bath. She put one foot in and paused. "Was I getting in the tub or out?" she yelled.

The 94 year old hollered back, "I don't know. I'll come and see." She started up the stairs and stopped. She shouted, "Was I going up or coming down?"

The 92 year old sitting at the kitchen table having tea, listening to her sister’s shook her head and said, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful," and knocked on wood for good measure. 

Then she yelled, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door." (from clean joke.com)
