For some reason, many people have a misconception thinking I'm the youngest in my family. This is a rather intriguing remark made by people who do not know my background well. Some of them noted to me they claimed that through observing my personality and gestures. Really? I agree that for some people it is obvious, but there are always many exceptions aren't they? Some books are not easy readable. That's what they say "Don't judge the book by its cover.". *wink*
Could the book has a nontypical design i.e. it has no cover or more than one cover? Or the cover put up is not the same as the content? Now you get me started with all possibilities. *lol*. Well, I incline towards the logic that you have to at least read a few pages of the book or the synopsis of the content before getting a rough idea of what the book is. Do not get distracted by the colorful or artistic design of the cover. Not that the publisher wanted to use the "camouflage" tactic to cheat its readers. Everyone perceives differently because we like to set perceptions on things we see without finding the absolute truth.
Maybe sometimes I do behave as someone shouldering with lesser responsibilities. I realize I do not mention about my younger siblings often enough, especially to people of general acquintance. Who would go around telling everyone about their siblings right? Not that I'm ashamed of them, in fact I do talk about them with people I am a bit closer. I am a proud sister, I tell you! *lol*.
The Sunday past was my little brother's birthday. I called home and this boy just had his birthday party ended and was busy opening up his presents. So he refused to talk to me. Sigh, see presents are more important than his eldest sis's long distance call! Sure he doesn't love me that much. *sob*. The age gap between me and my brother is rather big. When I left home, he just entered nursery. We used to be very close when I was in high school. I would play hide and seek, assembling lego with him and chasing each other at my parents' house. Can you imagine a big kid bullying a small one? No right? I was lying. Let me rephrase, can you imagine a small kid bullying a big one? *lol*. That's right, he's the one bullying his oldest sis!
Now this small kid is an adolescent. He is no longer interested in playing hide and seek with his sis. He has his own little world such as playing computer games and hanging out with his friends. Wait...he still maintained his old habits such as watching kiddo cartoons and needs us to yell at him to finish off his schoolwork and reminding him to take showers! See, this is how the youngest in the family behave. I don't recall behaving like that when I was young.
My brother is the little apple in the family amusing everyone especially my parents. Yet, the little brat's also causing my parents worried most thus far. I've found out the best way in entering his own world without letting him kick me out of his room. That would be to speak his language and behaves like him.
I love my little bro. That's right, he'll sure get a call from his sis's this coming weekend to check on him. Isn't he lucky to have such a sis? *wink*
