the big bro

the bro's in army now. i've mentioned that my brother and i used to be very close, well yeah we definitely were back then. we used to play with one another every single day without fail and i vividly remember the games we used to play; whatever baloney that entertained us.

i remember the Captain Planet figurine which my bro scribbled onto its eye and kept saying Capt Planet's having sore eyes.

i remember that we loved to eat salt. (yes, believe it or not). we'd "steal" salt from the kitchen by dipping our fingers into the salt container and speed off to my bro's room and hide from my maid behind his bed.

i remember how we ridiculously came up with our own language.

i remember our bizarre self-invented games:
1)My Drink Stall
we thought up a store selling drinks within our home. i pretended to the shop keeper, while my bro as the customer. i'd say 'tikek?', and he'd reply 'umpeh'. that means he wants a drink. then he would say either satu, dua, tiga or umpat. referring to how many cups he wants to order. the max number of cups i sell happens to be umpat(four), apparently because we didn't know what comes after umpat. i mean, we know 5 comes after 4 but we didn't know how to say it in malay language! haha! when he said tiga i had to count under the table using my fingers and he mocked me abt how i didn't know my own language. ahhahaa
2)Gotcha! (sis would rmbr this too)
my bro would stick his finger partially into his nose and fling it outwards screaming 'GOTCHA!' whenever i looked at him. yeah, he did it to sis too. so sis and i started seeking revenge, by doing the exact same thing to him if he looks at us. hahahahaa. this caused us 3, to not look at one another throughout.
3) Zeekkkkk!
my bro knew my neck was hyper-sensitive. if anyone were to place his hand on my neck, i'd jump and lose control of my body, literally. but the catch is, he suffers the same condition! his neck was as ticklish. so to "attack" one another, we would always reach out for... the neck. ohyeah and we named that action 'zeekkkk'.

i remember our favourite game. it was the guns that shoot darts out. his "fort" would be at the right of his bed, while mine; the left. so we'd attempt to shoot the darts at one another, along with lotsa giggles and guffaws the game could last an entire day.

we had loads of fun-filled memories, obviously. we got along so well. during the juvenile days we were literally inseparable. when relatives asked whether i was closer to my bro or sis, i'd immediately reply: definitely korkor!

as we embarked on the journey of growing up, we began drifting apart. its inevitable we've got our differences. he wouldn't bother about me, and neither would i. its almost as though we've forgotten each other's existance. even up till now. okay, we do speak to one another a lil more now, we found common interests in 2 things: clubbing and maplestory. hehe. he tells me which club plays the best music, and what alcohol to take. at times he discusses his maple adventures with me. and im thankful we communicate now.

right now he's in army, its only been 2 days since he was enlisted. just yesterday, i peeped into his room to check if he's around and using the comp, but obviously he wasn't, he's in camp damnit. i haven't adapted to not havin the big bro around. i know i've mentioned there wouldn't be much of a difference since i hardly speak to him. but hell, i kinda miss him now!

this was taken the night before he got enlisted

tee hee, he looks cute. at least, I think he does. i miss you korkor! ahh, he doesn't even know abt my blog. haa

on the day of his enlistment, the rest of the family accompanied him all the way to tekong. :)
hahahahahahaa. i felt kinda amused by the heavily camouflaged soldier. sis took the photo for me. he was super embarrassed i think.
here's what my sis said to me after she took d photo

sis: do you know he was blushing when i said 'handsome guy take photo!'
me: o_O how do you see him blushing through THAT??!

have been out with dearies diana and michelle. was just tellin diana that the hols have been fruitful and fully-made-use-of. i've been goin out everyday, caught up with some old pals. feels great, meeting up with friends you've almost lost contact with. we weren't really kissing, it was edited. its easy to tell. haha. i've caught The Devil Wears Prada. go watch it, its nice. teaches me a thing or two abt decision making. =) great acting by Meryl Streep, as usual.
