the same… only different

chan | 20/10/09life, thoughts

one of these things is not like the others, one of these things is kind of the same, but of these things is doing its own thing, now its time to play our game…

ok - so in figuring out what to do for kels birthday i really discovered how similar and how different we can be… and its really quite scary. we can finish each others sentances, but we hate each others music tastes (mostly), we can’t play certain games together becasue we can predict each other moves, but we dont like the same food, we can think we know what will be perfect for a day out, but we can get it so wrong…

i think that i may have come up with a fairly flawless formula for organising special occasions though. I think of all the things that i would like most in the world, then do the complete opposite for kel, and its perfect. i think similarly, if she was to organise something for me the same formula would work.

the day was spent with a lot of food, activities and ended with us getting to spend some time at home with puff.

i think of how often i used to take our relationship for granted becasue i assumed that all sisters are best friends who talk to each other every day and want to spend time together but i am increasingly aware these days that its not so when i look at my friends sibling relationships.

i dont know what i would do with out kel… she’s just that awesome.

    I think you did a great job with kel’s birthday, and I agree that she is indeed awesome.

    wow, I thought I’d check out the blog and never expected to see myself as a post subject.

    it was a great day, proven by our stunning artwork picked up yesterday.

    I have found myself recently musing about how good it is to have you home and so close. it has worked out so much better than I dared to hope for when it was first suggested.

    and seeing we can be so similar, that means we’re both awesome in spectacularly different ways :)
