Two days later it will be bro’s 19th birthday. Last time we used to celebrate with cake and gifts but since last year we’ve gotten more practical – simply give cash. Which also means my sis and I, being the major contributors, will suffer burning holes in our pockets. And our dear brother is greedy. He wants a 1000 plus bucks bicycle (he just got a solid one for $2400 around a year back) and a high-end mobile phone packed with a digicam and PDA function. Every time he sees me, he will persistently nag me for money… as if I’m his money tree. But knowing my attention-seeking brother, he’s just pulling my leg and being out to irritate me. So, I’ll pack $100 in his “birthday ang pow” two days later.
Two days later it will also be our two-and-half years together, yay. We’ve seen each other through different life phases, evolving from when both of us are studying, to a period when I started my career life and him juggling with final year schoolwork stress, to now when both are working. He has helped me mould my character into a more patient (although I still flare up once in a while), more sensitive and a more compassionate person. He’s the lover with the best advice to give, through frank and sometimes harsh tones which make me remember the mistakes I make. A guy with no tempers at all (well, actually only twice when I threw intolerable tempers, heh), always thinks for me before himself, cooks ai xin maggi mee or spaghetti for me, and accepts me for who I am. The last aspect is tough k, at times even Mama says she couldn’t stand my weird temperament which swings from being angry/upset to being jovial in a matter of minutes. So, I’ll bear with the only character I get mad at sometimes – poking more criticisms into me when I need some consolation – and honor WW with a “百份百男友” award!
