"Your Best Enemy" - Essay

[seikk]

I have never had this much fun writing an essay for school in my entire life. I really like this one, and, okay, it's only a "B" paper but I had fun with it. So I'm sharing it.

PS. Obviously there are many different types and workings of sibling relationships. This is just my take on one such functioning dynamic.

EEE!! What a fun essay! :D I really really love this. No one seems to write much about sibling relationships, even though it's the longest relationship humans usually have in their lives. I think that's part of why I'm so fascinated with the idea of gestalt relationships. I want to write a long rambly here but I've been computering all day for work and I'm starting to get a little seasick, >_< *crosses eyes* But it is a most excellent essay, yes ^_^

No seasickness. Seasickness is bad. >.<

Thank you! Maybe it's just because the relationship is such a given, and because there are so many different kinds. You can't really pigeonhole a sibling relationship.

You summed that up beautifully.

Except me and my little sister never made up. She disowned me about six years ago and we haven't spoken since. I miss her. :C

D: *hugs* I'm sorry. I know I'd miss my little sister so bad if, for any reason, I couldn't/wouldn't speak with her.

And thank you.

Eh. Her homophobia got in the way of family ties.

I'm hoping she'll come around eventually.

So very, very true.

I'd show this to my little brother and say 'so there', but I don't think he's quite mature enough to appreciate the sentiment.

Little siblings are obviously necessary. I'd probably still be sane without mine :P

Exactly.

and XD at your little brother. I'd say almost the same about my sister, but she already dragged the essay out of my bag and read it, so it's kind of a moot point.
