Entry #11 My siblings

Oh my goodness I have so many posts compiled that I have to write. I have been pretty busy last week as I had the Prelude night for my college and afterwards I just couldn't find the time to write. The night went well and I had fun. Now, on towards the entry!

My siblings are the greatest people in the world besides my parents. I love all of them.

First we have my eldest brother, Abang. Abang is the oldest but somehow he's not exactly the authoritative one between my siblings. That doesn't mean we don't respect him. We all view him as the smartest one and he is. He is pretty quiet and reserved and I relate to him in that aspect. Sometimes we tease him a lot but he's okay with it. If he's not okay with it he would get angry and his anger is something else. He does tend to lose his patience sometimes but it's not so often and usually it's not towards me so hehe. As we have a 8-year gap between us I was not very close to him when we were younger. And it didn't help that we were both quiet too. But then I started watching anime and you know as siblings enter university and live outside of the house you learn to appreciate them when they're home so you talk with them. So I achieved a topic where I could talk with him, which was anime. We're closer now, and we can talk about things other than anime.

Then we have my one and only sister, Kakak. As we are only have each other as girl siblings, it is expected that we're close right? Not at first actually. When we were younger I wasn't really close to her. I viewed her as someone higher than me and I would be a bother to her and things I say would not matter. Well, things change. Like I mentioned, you only really know how you would miss someone when they're gone. I only knew how to appreciate her when she went to university. We grew closer and then one day she showed me Super Junior and that was the beginning of everything. She introduced me to Kpop and since then we bonded over pastel pants and repetitive choruses. I would say I'm the closest to her now because our main interest is the same. Of course, it's not just about Kpop, it started with Kpop but it grew into everything else. I can't believe we can even discuss fanfictions these days.

Third and in the middle is my handsome brother Andi. He is the middle child and I'm not sure what stereotypes there are for middle children but he probably fits those stereotypes. Okay I won't be biased towards him. He is no 1 for handsomeness in my opinion. He's probably super happy about this. He can be sarcastic and always teases me. He would be the typical older brother to a younger sister, where he would tease me but secretly he's probably protective over me ehehe. He's pretty laid back and I do like talking to him about stuffs, especially future things. With him, our common interest would be games. He is the person I would play the PS2 with and he also taught me how to solve the rubik's cube. The games he likes are quite the same as me too, and we both love rhythm-based games. But he's more pro than me, he taps like crazy.

Fourth on the list is Paan. Paan is the maknae line together with me now that I think about it. I guess we were pretty close when we were younger as we're close in age. Or was he closer with Andi and left me alone being lonely? I don't remember these things and recently I remember seeing a video when we were younger and I seem to be close with Paan. But anyway we became closer in high school, when we both entered our respective school's marching band. It was a really interesting time, and I even cried for him one time (cey overdramatic much?). Obviously our common interest is marching band but overall we can talk about anything. I'm really close to  him too. He confides to me too sometimes and I feel honored whenever he does that. Whenever anyone does that actually. He's a good brother, not only to me but to our older siblings as well. He is our go-to guy for everything, from house chores to changing the light bulbs. Our very reliable Paan.

And then there's me! Anak bongsu. I do not think I'm too spoiled like an anak bongsu but I do get less scoldings I guess? I do not know what my siblings think of me, but I would like to think they see me as their cute youngest sister who is growing up so fast and so well and they're so proud of me. (In reality they probably think I'm still the same annoying little sister with the annoying high-pitched voice who complains to my parents all the time and cries over the smallest things)

I love my siblings. I believe now we are closer than ever and I do feel grateful that my siblings do talk to me about serious things and do listen to what I have to say even though I am younger. Of course, most of the times I am still naive and inexperienced but they do hear what I have to say. I am happy. Love you guys, Farsi kids!
