My younger sister is always coming in my room and I don't want her here. I don't have a door because I have the only upstairs room and it's sort of a bonus room for guests. But it's my bedroom. How can i keep her from coming up here all the time?

get a water gun and spray her every time she comes in

This has to depend on your sister age. At a certain age the hero worship is just too much to get the little bugger out. I suggest that you do the most boring things every while in there. I use to make my sister do all kinds of things. Like OK we are going to wash the walls, or fold my laundry. I used her for the t.v. remote because this was a little before remotes were big. I'd send her on little errands like hey I am thirsty could you get me some milk and a plate of cookies.
It was fun but I have to tell you just enjoy the brat. I am away in Japan and I miss the constant bickering and friendship we have. I had to readjust my attitude as we got older and we were co-conspirators. I move all over before we could have the cool hang out time where we were both old enough to enjoy it. There is nothing else like a sibling in the world but sometimes we are just to close to them to realize it. I miss my sister dearly even when the brat came and borrow crap out of my room without asking. Even all the stuff she broke when we were younger.
You never know what the future will bring so sit back huff a little let the annoyance settle, then just go with the flow. The ultimate thing is just to ignore the poor girl and eventually even she will get the hint.

Put up a curtain on a rail; it costs almost nothing (why don't you have a door? Tell your parents you need a door. Ask them if they would like not having any privacy). With the curtain at least you will have visual privacy. Then put up a sign outside your bedroom, on the wall next to the curtain, which is like a shop sign - either it says, "Cindy's in!" - or whatever your real name is - or you flip it over and it says, "Cindy's busy right now!" and let your family know that when your sign says you're busy, you really do need your privacy.
After you get your curtain and your sign, be nice to your sister as well - obviously you are her role model and she probably adores you. So give her perhaps half an hour or an hour every day when she can be with you. Just tell her real clearly that that will only be when your sign says you're in. Stick to it and be firm and charming and it will work just fine.

It's normal for you to want your privacy, & get a break from your family, but your baby sister is obviously starved for attention from her big sis.
Make a deal with her. Make some time for her where you play a game together, or watch a movie on TV or take her to the mall for an afternoon, or something else fun. Promise her you will do that with her at least once a week if she will give you some alone time when you are in your room.
I promise, it will work as long as you do it with love.

your little sister probably wants to hang out with big sis :)
but if that's not an option get some velcro that goes across the door entry and tell her that she cannot pass beyond the velcro when it's in place.
don't have it up all the time because it wont work, but if you do it occasionally she will learn when she can and cannot enter your room.

Sit her down and let her know that since it is your room, you get to say when you have visitors and when you dont. If she wants to come in your room, she needs to knock and wait for permission to enter. If she still doesnt get it, ask your parents to help reinforce these boundaries.

Be honest with her and tell her in a non-confrontation and a way that won't hurt her feeling that she is starting to wear out her welcome. If she persists on keeping going up there then you may have to say to her that you need your space and when you want to have her up that you will invite her. But without invitation she is no longer welcome to just come upstairs. Good luck.

Just tell her in a nice manner that you need your space and privacy. Tell her that it bothers you that she comes into your room without even asking for your permission.

Will your mom and dad step in and help her to understand that you deserve your privacy? I hope so because it's a basic human right and asking her to be considerate of you is logical. Good luck!
