Your best bet is to start cutting back on your time with her, because she is not going to change just because you tell her she's annoying. You'd do her a favor to say, "Um, Suzy, do you realize that when you do that it really bothers people?" My guess is she'll just get mad at you, but at least you will have tried.
Keep in mind that the more you hang around negative people, the more it rubs off on you and you begin to act the same way. If you do decide to keep hanging around her, be very aware of your own behavior. You've seen the things she does that you don't like, keep yourself in check and make sure you don't pick up her bad habits. If you can, try to find people to hang out with who have qualities that you admire, the type of people who you want to be like. What you've said about your cousin makes me think she is NOT the type of person you want to be. [ mslegthinks's advice column | Ask mslegthinks A Question ]

It needs to be a civil conversation, though, with no yelling, swearing, and whatnot. Share your side of the story, and tell her how she makes you feel.
If she's a true friend, she'll likely ease up.
If she doesn't ease up, then I think it's time to find some new friends.
You don't deserve to be treated like the way she is treating you, so you have to speak up.
