Annoyed on family vacation ? Is it normal?

Question

I’m vacation in Houston with my siblings, a cousin and my my mom.  My cousin a female is 26. My sister is 25. I’m 22. My 3 brothers are 23,19 and 16. So all the girls share a room and my brothers and I share. The first night. My older brother and I got into it bad. Because i was play fighting with my 19 year old brother. Because he kept on hitting me even though I asked to stop. We Ended up making some noise. He got mad saying he’s trying to sleep. And that our youngest brother is even more mature than us. So of course that made me mad and we started to get into it.

The my older sister and cousin got mad because I would not  drive to get them something to eat. I’m the only driver since my older brother doesn’t have a license, my sister and cousin have a license but  are scared to drive the van. So I’m tired.  I’m just annoyed. Only my youngest brother and my mom haven’t annoyed me. Was it a mistake suggesting to do this. I never had a family vacation out of town before but this is just too much and I’m the only driver and everyone seems annoyed at me?

Anything that involves Houston in August is going to be fraught just because the 90 degree weather with 80% humidity and swarms of mosquitos would test anyone's patience. So understand that you probably have a high baseline level of annoyance even outside of your family's behavior. Sadly this is just what big family vacations sometimes entail. Be grateful that this is temporary and do your best to get through it.

Not at all normal. 😵 🆘 😹 w🇪 🇮 🇷 🇩0️⃣🇸      
Don't  any of you have a boyfriend or girlfriend to go somewhere with?‼️⁉️ What about your mom? 
Why would all her adult children, plus another adult relative, all want to go with mommy? 😺😸😼
Seems this is a recurring event for all of you to vacation together.😲 ☝️ 🔫
Do any of your 3 brothers have a drivers license? All 3 of them should. What about your mother? She shouldn't have had 6 kids if she's not even licensed to drive.🆘⚠️

Jesus Christ, will you grow up? You're 22 but you're acting like you're 10. All of you are.

It seems a bit of a storm in a teacup to me. You annoyed your family by making a lot of noise - and you seem to be blaming your brothers. You drive; perhaps you would prefer it if you couldn't drive. May I suggest that if you want to get along better with people you do the best you can for them even if it is a bit irritating and you are a bit put out. Do it for the sake of being a great family member rather than because you want something back. That way you'll feel better about yourself and won't come across as being rather selfish and immature, even if you are not. Good Luck - and have a great vacation!
