you all know my sister — basically a genius, a workaholic, and my seemingly endless source of humorous anecdotes and somewhat useful scientific information (ladies and gentlemen, who hasn’t heard of that tidbit about CLAMS?)
all grown up now, she’s currently in cavite as wylo’s designated driver since he needs to get his anti-rabies vaccine shots at the RITM while auntie is away attending an important out-of-town funeral.
when we were younger, i used to practically hate her — born barely four years apart, she and i never really got along well as children. i used to think she was something i had to bear, and it annoyed me that i had to look after her when i could barely get my performance in street basketball right, know what i’m saying?
but then, ten years hence, she now stands as the only reason why i can’t seem to move out of quezon city and into makati. sigh. sure sometimes days pass we don’t really see each other because i come in so late and she gets out so early, and some days i’m just plain unreasonably cranky over unclaimed laundry, but hell, sisters are just so much love, it’s so hard imagining having to live apart at some point.
in the future, when money wouldn’t necessarily be an issue at all, i’d prefer the both of us going off to the states to pursue further studies — she’d be a supergroovy biochemist while i’ll be off getting a master’s degree in something or other, i don’t know (haha).
or maybe not. maybe we could just hit the beaches all over the country and camwhore. wait, that sounds so much better.
