Family, Family, Family.

its been almost one year since i last met my brother in Singapore. i call him when ever i can to chat to him, or call my mom to find out how they are doing. now my brother is in Australia to visit for 2 weeks. he's here with my cousin too, its great, its been such a long time since i have hung out with the boys. we get to do boy stuff, like pig out on junk food, play video games, twiddle with the car and cook together. yes, the boys in the family all love to cook. its a passion that rub off from our parents. maybe its an asian thing to want to be able to cook well, or it might just be universal.

sometimes we forget how much family comfort means to all of us. me? i never forget. i grew up in a very close knit family. i have heaps of cousins. we all grew up together, played together, watched each other grow up and also lived together. its hard to come across people who get along with family, let alone be each others best friends. Strangely it does happen. by far and wide even siblings just tolerate one another, but us, we get along great, like pigs and mud. maybe its easier because in total of 8 cousins, all but one is a girl. and i guess boys will be boys. its hard not to have fun with so much time on our hands. team games are never a problem, we have enough for most games.

take some time to re-acquaint with your siblings or cousins. you might enjoy their company as much as i enjoy my family's company.

Blood is thicker than water.
