Thursday, October 26, 2006 || My sister
Since I haven't blogged in a few days, this is gonna be a long post I guess, since I'll be posting on behalf of all my days.
Sis was home for a few days for a holiday, and she returned to Hong Kong today. I'd have to say that this time around, her return was somewhat of a pleasant surprise.
Anyway, we all headed up to Cameron Highlands for a one-day spontaneous trip on Monday. Uh ...... it wasn't too fun 'cause the only reason they wanted to go was to buy PLANTS. They're major plant enthusiasts, cause sis knows the names of practically every plant there is, but I know shit about plants.
I brought my camera, but my sister rolled her eyes when she saw it. "Man, I am SO not a camera person. Don't like taking pics.", she proclaimed.
Being the spineless asswipe that I am whenever I'm around my sis ... "Haha yeah man, same here!", was my loud and very fake reply. Man, I just betrayed the gods of Camwhoring and all my fellow camwhores!
The VERY few pictures:
Mummy and I.
Oh yeah, I was REALLY ECSTATIC to visit Raju's Strawberry farm again. He's just sooo nice! The last time I went there, he gave me free Strawberry milkshakes and strawberries with cream. *big grin*
This time he gave me the strawberries again! :D So nice lah.
May his business prosper, for his good deed. HAHA
*drools*
OH yeah, how could I ever forget the BLISSFUL taste of Cameron's Raju's Strawberry's Farm's ice cream?!
HEAVEN, I tell you!
Sis and her beloved plants ... Yes yes, I know she's a lot thinner than me yada yada blah. =(
Speaking of my sister ... I think it's pretty obvious that we aren't close at all. Honestly, we usually feel really awkward and uncomfortable around each other, mainly cause we have a HUGE age gap in between us, and she's barely around enough for us to feel like a family.
But somehow, this time around, I've finally felt like I've gotten to know her a bit better. She's really stubborn, independant, brave, witty and strong. Actually, she REALLY reminds me of myself ...... except that I, unlike her, am not as socialble or as brave as her.
In a sense, she's the person that I've always strived to be, but can't.
Anyhow, it was pretty funny, how she gave me shitloads of advice on my love life and all.
"One thing I think you should know ... the sad reality of life is that there IS not Mr. Right, just one person out there who's meant for you. Sometimes you may think that you only feel what you feel with one person, but the truth is, there are many, countless people out there who are equally compatible with you! It's not Mr. Right anymore. It's Mr. Timing ... if you meet someone you fell for who plans to settle down with you at the same time as you were planning it, that's Mr. Right. Timing!"
Uh ... kinda controversial, but I do get her point. Most of us waste so much time, energy and effort on the past, or people who just don't appreciate us for who we are.
I told her about DickFace, and I'd have to say that she has been the most supportive of "us" thus far. Honestly, if I talked to her and listened to her advice when things were still going on between us, I really think that I'd have done a LOT of things differently, and not make such big deals over his drinking or his unsupportive family.
In fact, my parents HATED the sound of him, though technically they've never really talked yet, 'cept for a glance or two. But sis was so cool, she made him sound like the coolest guy ever, and made my parents feel like judgemental hypocrites. Heehee. Too bad ........... Never mind. =(
Anyway, she was ADAMANT about bringing me out to "see the world", cause I am supposedly too "sheltered, naive and does not know what reality is like". Right. So she dragged me to Zouk with her best KL friends last night.
...... Of course, I couldn't enter. WTF!
So the bunch of us basically chilled in Terrace Bar. I felt REALLY weird at first, to hang out with people who are practically 13 years older than I was, but her friends are so fucking funny. AND damn cool. Though they picked on me a lot, cause I was supposedly so naive and innocent.
*looks at sky*
And ... one of her friends was HOT. When he picked us up, the first thing he said to me was, "you know, I'm DEFINITELY the guy your parents warned you about ...", with a wink.
I swear to God, if my sister wasn't there, I would've said something like "Yeah, and that's why I don't listen to my parents at all." HAH
Well, Mr Good Looking is a HUGE player. And not afraid to admit it. Heck, he is honestly practically Tucker Max! But I could see why so many girls didn't mind being one of his sexual conquests, even though he admits that he's an asshole. Speaking of men who exude magnetism ... he definitely is at the top.
My friend joined us awhile later, and picked me up to send me home a lil' earlier. I drank three glasses of vodkas and a glass of white wine, but I was still sober ... while sis was beet red after one and a half glasses of wine. O__o''
Before my friend and I went off, Mr Good Looking assumed he was DickFace (coz sis and I told him about him ... Man, i must've really liked him since I still talk about him so much), and was like, "Hey you look SO chinese!"
Which shocked my friend, who really IS chinese. You see, DickFace is of a different race, though he has chinese blood. =.=''
Then when we took off, Mr. Good-Looking grinned at us and went, "you know if you guys wanna do anything funny, I have condoms in the car!"
MAN, that was something I would've REALLY blushed at. But I think that I was slightly tipsy cause I laughed like shit instead. O_o
Anyway ... I'm grateful to sis. =)
Things I have in common with my sister: We're both stubborn, can be loners at time, independant, HATES feeling dependant on men, and we're kinda racist (LOL?) cause we both like guys of other races! And preferably older. Sis's boyfriend is white, bloody good-looking and a few years older, LUCKY HER. While as for me, the last three people I was interested in were not chinese, so that theory's proven. *grins*
Things I don't have in common with my sister: Everything else.
Anyway, it's her birthday today. I really wish her all the best. And someday, maybe we'll know each other really well and be really close sisters, for real.
