yami_samuraifloToday, my sister turned 21! :)
Compared to last year (where we held a family reunion and went out for a bowling), this year it was quiet event. Not that we do much for birthdays anyway, aside from some special occasions, when someone turn a specific age and really want to do something special to remember the day. As it is, this year we kept it simple. Chocolate cake and a few gifts, just our parents, our brother B and the two of us. Brother L is away at his girlfriend's house with his kids and should only be back tomorrow, as for our brother V... Well, he was supposed to make a visit but didn't in the end <.<
Probably too caught up in his work. *shrugs*
Well, knowing him, he'll come by tomorrow after his work.
Not that lil' sis cared much about their absence; to more or less quote her, as she insisted B and I stand with her for a photo, 'I couldn't care less about the other two, but I want you with me'.
Kinda harsh, but understandable given our brothers' personalities. L is fifteen years older than her, they were never very close and he's... Well, he's just begging to be punched sometimes, 'cause he doesn't seem to realize we don't share his mindset or beliefs, and that we have bigger worries than to buy the latest iphone/ipod/laptop on market. As for V, even though he cares about us, he has his own family to worry about now, and his people skills seriously suck at times. <.<
On the whole, a rather nice day, and I hope my sister is happy with the way it turned out. :)
