I was reading han's resume for his application to various us universities...
and.. i have to say i was impressed...
haha.. i guess.. there're a lot of things that i don't know about my lil brother..
though he's way taller than me.. though he's bigger than me..
though i've always acted like the younger sibling when i'm around him..
in my eyes.. he's always my lil brother... my one and only lil brother...
the small kid whom i always feel i need to look after... =)
Over the years.. I've never realized... how much he has grown and matured...
being the younger sibling.. it has never been easy for him i guess...
he told me that it was stressful being my younger brother some years ago...
that was something that NEVER dawned upon me...
cause we.. the both of us.. we excel in different areas in school...
he was always bright in math and science.. brilliant in sports... especially badminton...
i'm the exact opposite... i suck badly in math.. but i was better in languages...
i can never even manage to serve properly.. let alone play badminton..
but i was always busy with scouting when he was busy whacking shuttlecocks and umpiring...
i participated in debates and public speaking.. he on the other
hand was always into math and science quizzes.. i was the more outgoing sibling while he was the more quiet one..
we are different.. very different...
but what i lack.. he made it up with teaching me...
he taught me how to at least serve... cause to him.. i'm hopeless to be taught how to play... XD
he taught me the rules of badminton.. so i can watch badminton matches with him.. and together we can cheer for our favourite players.. =)
we stayed up late and watched football together... we booed when Man U lost...
those were the days..
my parents never compared the two of us..
but i guess some of our teachers and relatives did..
and somehow he felt it..
he has always wanted to be as good as i am if not better than me..
* though i never thought that i'm good.. i always thought he was way better...
maybe... just a little quiet when he's with people.. =) *
and that's where the stress came in for him...
that's what made him push himself i think.. to study that hard...
seriously.. i wasn't half as hardworking as he was...
it always amazes me how he manages his tight training schedules and schoolwork so well...
imagine.. 4 days of training per week.. with tuition and homework in between...
how did he do it? =.=
all his hard work paid off.. when he did excellently for his SPM and was awarded the JPA scholarship.. =D
When i was told.. i think i was so much happier than he was.. haha..
and well.. well.. few months at INTEC and that guy came telling me that he has a girl friend...
haha.. and i was the first to know.. i was happy for him.. but i could never imagined my younger brother with a girl friend.. hahaha.. waaaayyyyy beyond my imagination...
and guess what?
half a year later.. he was actually telling me to go get a boyfriend and stop being so choosy... =.=
Koh.Young.Han.. I'm NOT!!
Now.. when i talk to him.. i no longer see the lil kid whom i called names at.. =p
i see.. a guy with aims and goals.. who knows what he wants..
he has grown.. so much.. =)
i'm glad..
he's leaving for us next year.. and i know i'll miss him badly..
who else can make me laugh like a hyena and not care how ugly i look.. XD
who else will say that i have a face like the moon with lotsa lubang and can still get away with it...
who else can say that i walk like a duck and still have me laugh over it...
worse.. who else to act like a kid and fool around with?
3 years... it'll be fast.. right?
hmm.. just wanna tell you, han.. that i'll always be proud of you.. =)
