Younger sisters...
I love my younger sister. I really do. I'm two years older then her, so I can still relate to her. Honestly, though: there are times that I just want to scream. I'll refer to her as E.
So, she has a job now. Fun for her, but that doesn't mean you get out of the agreement we made to clean out our piece of the garden. She apparently thinks so. She didn't have to work yesterday, so we'd do it in the morning, since she had a party that afternoon/evening. I started in the garden, while E was at the party. (I have no life)
Last evening, I told her that she'd do the rest, since it's both our garden. Response? A deep sigh, roll of the eyes and: 'if I have the time'.
WTF? >.<;;
She works _afternoons_. Not a 9 to 5 job.
Why on earth did she have to turn into such a priss now she's a teenager?! Latest count she has 8 friends. Which is 8 times more friends then I had at her age.
I know being 15/16 is a very confusing age. At that time I was in never ending arguments with my dad. A little rebellious twit I was. Also rather insecure. I grew out of that, dad and me are great friends now, I get along with mom most of the times and I love playing in the garden with our dog. I became secure with who I am, what I look like and my own sexuality. I understand that this still has to happen at E's age.
BUT, and now I'm getting to my point: at times it feels as if she thinks we all live to serve her every whim. She feels she's soooo mature to her older sister, if only because she pays to have her hair cut and I let dad do it.
She gets angry with Rex when he jumps on her and accidentally slobbers a bit on her trousers, then goes upstairs to change or spends an hour trying to get the non-existing stain out.
It's too far to ride your bike to the nearest shopping-street, she has dad drive her to her friend because her own bike is 'broken'. I offered to lend her my bike, but that wasn't convenient. And just now she left in a huff because mom and dad called her on something she's been promising to do for years, doesn't even take much time, and still hasn't completed it.
I love her, I really do, but ever since she's started to become popular, I watch and see her change into something I'm feeling rather ambiguous about. I know I'm partially to blame since I've always been protective of her, but that stops now. She needs to grow out of this stage and do it fast because it's starting to annoy even mom and that is a difficult thing to do.
