Mah Family

My family isn't like any ordinary family. It depends on which type of family you are in. For me I'm the youngest in the family. I have only one sibling that's my sister. She's really nice at times and can turn nasty whenever she looses her temper like yelling the whole house down just because of nitty-gritty stuff. Such as when her internet connection's slow, not being able to be the first to bathe, adding too much oil in food and that her gym sessions are wasted, not having enough apples to put herself on a diet and the a whole lot of things more. Of course things have improved ever since she spent 5 years away from home and now that she's back for 2 years I think she has pretty toned herself down due to certain circumstances. There were times when I missed not having someone to quarrel with, chat with or to hear someone yelling in the house. When we used to stay in our flat in Air Itam way back from junior school to high school both of us shared rooms and when she had to live away from home it was pretty lonely. We usually communicate by ICQ. It was the in thing and the cheapest way to keep in touch without having to pay phone bills on a daily basis.

The years sort of rolled by and now we're living in our new apartment for like coming 4 years and things have changed since we've learn to be more tolerant with each other. hehehe Of course my sis and I can also be girl friends at times when we share our shoes, clothes, make up sets, magazines and everything that a girl would be thankful to have a sister. So we certainly have our differences but we are able to look upon that. :)

As for my parents, my mum's a a cleaning freak. She cleans the house twice a week, changes the bed sheets every week, washes the laundry like 3 times per wash in the washing machine, wipes the furniture every week and irons almost all our clothes daily, washes the toilet twice a week and bla bla bla. Every night she sleeps at odd hours and wakes up at odd hours whichever fits her schedule. At times she sleeps at 11pm and wakes up at 6am or she'll sleep at 3am and wakes up later the next day around 7.30am. My mum seldom watches movies or TV. She reads the papers from cover to cover even the classifieds. hehehehe But my mum ensures that we get the best of everything in every sense. She makes sure that we eat well by rushing to the market and cook up her most delicious meal she can, cleans the house so that we live comfortably, washes our clothes thoroughly, gets tidbits for us at the groceries to make sure we have enough food supplies at home. :) And just so you know, my mum's really the cool mum. She goes on MSN to chat with us and sends us silly emoticons for us to laugh at, types emails, types smses and even knows how to use speaker function on her mobile!

As for my father, he's always grumbling and nagging at us at the slightest thing. Sounds familiar? Ok here's a hint "grumbles at nitty gritty stuff'. No prizes for guessing the right answer but I think my sister inherited some of those characteristics. What does my father grumble at? He grumbles at the way my mum drives when he's not any better at it. He grumbles at the way we speak because he's a light sleeper and he can hear the slightest noise in his sleep. He grumbles that we don't wash our car consistently, he grumbles at everything and anything. He even grumbles at the way I take care of my rabbit. You'd be bored to know the list of things he grumbles at. I think he's having mid live crisis perhaps. So I'm still giving him the benefit of doubt because when he's not in the house at least we're still free to do whatever we want to do without having to put up with his grouchy ways.
Basically everyone's freaked out because of his grouchy ways and mostly my sister snaps him out of his grouchy mood or my mum would do so. hahaha
Apart from the nagging part, my dad also has weird sleeping habits. He occasionally wakes up at 7am to watch some lousy shows on Cinemax which doesn't make any good sense, gets back to sleep when he's sort of done with the show and wakes up again for work. As for me if I had the chance of sleeping till late all the more I would do so. My mum says at times when she wakes up at 6am he'd be watching TV too. LOL

That pretty sums up my family ways. :) It's getting late and I have to sleep for now. Nitey nites!
