A French student I'm sick and tired of my sister due to the

fact that she manages to take all my clothes. It's very annoying, but it's even more boring when I want to dress me up with a t-shirt or a trouser that she "stole" me. I am in desperate need of help because she never asks me permission to take my clothes so I don't know what to do. I'm thinking of locking my room but it isn't the best solution. It looks hopeless. My sister as stubborn as a donkey.
