Sibling Rivalry
As you know, I blog and forum crawl a lot to kill spare time. Today, I read something interesting on Mic’s blog. Head on over to Truly Mic to check out her blog. Her topic about bonding with her elder brother kinda hit a note on my personal life.
Let’s just say, I was never the good and caring brother to my younger sister. My mom worried at times that we would end up killing one another before our teens (tee hee hee). In fact, I used to be such a pest and attention whore. I’d pick on her and generally make life miserable for her. It was worse since I had terrible mood swings and had to babysit her sometimes as my mom trusted US together and not any of us alone. I had to be her bodyguard whenever she had outings with friends. I guess she then noticed that I was there for her and things changed a little. Our relationship as siblings improved over time and I think it’s natural. People do mature to some extent. We still have our differences and squabbles, but it’s usually more out of boredom than spite.
We now communicate more and sometimes after a long day at work, she comes into my room and chat. It’s a nice feeling compared to our bitter bickering in the past, which sometimes escalated to physical levels. I am still the cheeky-as-hell brother and sometimes irritates her to no end, but we both laugh in the end. I’m a clown I suppose.
I truly wonder how many people share a similar level of relationship with their siblings? What about those single child, who never had a chance to share this feeling? I personally feel that they may have lost out on a wonderful thing.
To my beloved sis, if you’re reading this…then:
1) You must have been really bored
2) AuditionSEA must be under patching
3) MapleStory account got hacked
4) GunBound kicked you out of the game for being a n00b
5) Remembered my *cough*kickass*cough* blog
Love ya!
