I agree with Charlatan that this isn't your position, but I will admit myyounger brothers were always a concern of mine and it's quite difficult to not want to do something. It seems you have done all the things I would have and that should be enough for you. I would talk to your parents now, and not your sister. Tell them how many things you already have on your plate and that it's their turn to step up to the plate.
They are the ones letting her use their flyer-miles, they are the ones letting her keep her shit all over the house and not picked up (my Mom to this day if I lived at home at 25, would be taking my stuff and tossing it out the door if it was messy). As for her music, she's still under mommy and daddy's roof, time for them to tell her she can't play until her homework is done for the day. As for the money all over the place, I'd start packing my pockets with it. Tell her she wants to take your time and your space and treat it like crap then you can do the same for her....she must not need it that bad if it's all over the place...
Either way good luck to you! Remember she's a kid and she may just be feeling inadequte because big sister is doing so well and she doesn't ever see herself doing that, so why bother?? Ya know? Maybe it's time to tell her it's not about livingup to you or anyone else, but she needs to do something!! (Although it seems you already tried that....)
