My sister stresses me out 24/7.. I don't know what to do about her. I told my dad and mom about it but they don't even do much because I know they like my sister more than me already. She never listens to anything I say and is very spoiled. I don't want to be so stressed all the time but her goal in life is to stress me death and kill me or something. I don't even know what's wrong with her.. She's so annoying and whenever I try to tell her to stop and stuff she just makes me more angry by mocking me in a small way like act like she's not listening on purpose and act like she doesnt even care..

The younger siblings will naturally act-out to get their way. The only thing you can do is tell them, "Look, if you are going to act that way, I don't care to put up with you! I will only be around you if you behave and be nice." Then walk away... go to your room or go for a walk around the block to blow off the stress.
Realize that the only thing you have control over is yourself. If you refuse to get baited into their game, she will eventually get the idea.
A walk around the block is generally a good idea in any pressure-cooker situation. It will help you to keep from transferring that stress into other situations like school.
You can also offer the carrot-and-stick approach... we've just gone over the "stick". You can also "reward" her in some way... perhaps allowing her to wear something of yours, play a game with her or take her shopping or something like that.
