I think my sister is damn hilarious.
I love to listen to all her rubbish, watch her crazy gestures and observe her
manymany facial expressions, cos' they never fail to put me in stitches. Haha.
We were grocery shopping at the supermarket earlier, and ended up at the aisle stocked with air fresheners and mothballs and whatnot.
cheryl: You know, I used to think those looked really edible. (pointing to mothballs)geri: Huh? Those stinky mothballs?cheryl: Ya. Last time grandma's cupboard always had so many, and they looked quite good to eat.geri: Siao! You should have just eaten them la. Why you go and look at her mothballs for no reason!cheryl: Aiyah of course I know cannot eat la. But whenever I felt especially hungry, I'd open the cupboard door and look at them lor.geri: *about to collapse on the floor from excessive laughter*Whoever reading this now will probably think, huh, very funny mehh. But I swear it was freaking hilarious when we were having the conversation! Words without her action and expressions just don't do justice to the above exchange. Lol.
I used to think my sister was a boring, spoilt brat who's aim in life was to annoy me to death. Haha. She really irritated the hell out of me la. To the point that I once hammered nails and locks into my drawers just to keep her away from my things. Needless to say, my study table was never the same again.
Come to think of it..we really had our fair share of catfights and shouting matches. We were just so different, like night and day. Everytime the
karang guni man went by, I'd have the urge to sell her. Haha! A 5-year gap seems alot, but yet also quite little. Growing up, I guess we both matured quite a fair bit.
Actually I think she's more mature than me sia. I'll never forget the "scolding" I got from her for wearing my belt low (with a safety pin) in sec sch. Haha. She was, like, only in primary school then la! Wahlau. I totally didn't know how to react. My parents say me still never mind. Imagine your little sister berating you like a discipline mistress. =p
Though I've always said that she's one sister more than I need, deep down, I know I wouldn't trade her for any other sister in the world. In some ways..I feel bad that she's had to grow up before she should. A 17-year-old shouldn't have to deal with many things that we have to deal with now. But like I said..this little sister of mine is more mature than I am. To the extent that some people actually think she's the older one. Haha.
Ohwells..like what my parents have said all along, we have only each other, and it's by fate that of all the people in the world, we ended up as sisters. That's why we should cherish each other. Yeah, I'm starting to see the value in these words more and more.
She still annoys me pretty often and shows attitude whenever she feels like it, but if she didn't..that would really be a problem.
Wow pretty amazed at myself for dedicating an entire post to cheryl! I've never been very articulate with my feelings verbally; I do better on paper and in actions. This is probably as emo as I'll ever get. Haha.
Thanks my darling
xiaomei, for being the
dajie to me ever so often. =p Like what you always like to say, sisters forever! Loveyou babe. =)
