family
Dear readers,
have you ever known someone your whole life and realize you don't really know them?
no am not talking about a boy that i thought i loved and knew everything about and the second i got comfortable he turned on me. Am talking about my older sister. My whole life i thought i honestly knew her. i could tell you tons of things about her you would never know. There are so many things some of you have heard about her that she was a bitch or she's a know it all or she's controlling. But sometimes when we're not killing each other theres this whole other side to her that I've never seen before. I guess they always say don't be mean to your sister cause when you grow up you'll be best friends. I mean i wouldn't say we'll be best friends but i never thought that shes like a great mentor.
Am probably calling everyone a mentor these days cause am in what the call that awkward transitional period of my life where am not a teenager anymore but am trying to figure my way through the real world. but she was defiantly the last person i expect to hold my hand and guild me through this.
And every know and then she'll tell me a life story that i never would have believed was true. But sometimes you have to tell a little sister a life story that maybe a scar from a long time ago but will help her learn something about life. haha maybe you have no idea what am talking about. But i've dated this guy for like 3 years and we've been best friends for 4 and i thought he was someone for the longest time and i knew him better then i knew myself. but we got in a fight today which was over something stupid and i realize i have no clue who the hell he is and why i even put up with him.
my sister told me a story - ok it was more like a few comments versus an actual story- but this guy she was dating for the longest time who i thought was the perfect man she just suddenly one day broke up with. I never really understood what happened i just kind of assumed it was her fault (i know am that horrible and hate my sister so much that i blame her). but honestly this guy was good looking, nice, athletic, smart. so what could have happened? well my sister was bossy, smartie pants, crazy possibly, etc.
but i guess thats what i thought then.
but then today she was talking to me about college stuff - or course i was prepared for the "your not smart enough" or " you need to do better" or "you haven't been studying" or something along the lines of what my mother should say. but she actually gave me a reality check about what i really want to do. Cause i guess i've been "slightly" slacking. But she really made me realize that if i want to be a vet i have to really want it. well anyways in that time she told me story about her bf and how she knew him for 4 years and suddenly he turned on her. I was shocked at first (but secretly in my head i was thinking that she probably caused it cause i want to smack her sometimes too) but when a guy hits you thats just something wrong with him! no matter how crazy a girl can be if a guy hits her he as the problem. He needs to have the balls to walk away not hit her.
but it just made me realize i have no clue who my sister is. suddenly she's giving me the reality talks and helping me and telling personal stories. But if its one think i've learned its that family is the closes thing to real you have. people you meet in life you may think are a certain way but you never really know.
