(Day 15) - Dum Dum Duuuum~ Midnight Episodes. Blood Still Thicker Than Water. Labels: Surprise Me God experiment
My body clock's gone all haywire now.
Been sleeping extremely early... in the morning, and then waking up 10-12 hours later.
For good measure.
Those who had known me over the years would know that I suddenly and miraculously turn into a pig as soon as the first day of holidays strike.
A nocturnal one.
Well, it's close to 5:30am now.
Just got home from supper with the elder brother/kor.
Going to type this, catch the sunrise.. before hitting bed.
Kor and I seldom talk. As siblings have this secret code of not showing affection unless affection is defined as smacking the other in the pancreas with a wooden spoon. But when we do, talk can go on and on and on...
I remember one part of the conversation we had just now. We were wondering what we'd do if our parents were to suddenly drop dead. Morbid, yes. But it's just convo.
Not to mention a reality check.
Cut long story short, we were discussing insurance and CPFs and stuff until he casually mentioned he'd quit school to get a job to support me through my education if the money left behind didn't come to us. If there was a need for us to support ourselves, he'd take care of me...
In his words, it's more of a "Of course la! Family still need to ask, for what..",
But it still left me with an I-don't-know-what-to-say-to-that emotion.
It could just be pure older brother responsibility doing the talking, but it still always warms the heart to know that there'd be this someone who'd be there in times of crisis. Even though he doesn't show it; and mostly super annoys my existence..

Little things like that, especially between siblings, just screams of the grace of God upon my life.
