Twice the number

Throughout my life, I have received wide-eyed responses and gigantic gasps whenever I mention this one fact: I have 5 brothers. The usual responses ranges from "How do you cope?!" or "What does that feel like?" to "You must be suffering!" and things to that effect.

So I'd like to say Au contraire! to all you fellas out there who thinks it's such a terrible horror to live with. And here I'd like to present 10 reasons why it's super awesome to have 5 brothers like mine!:
1. They always do crazy things. Like splash water on you. Or suddenly shout in the middle of the road. Or scream the songs in the car at the top of their voices. And even if you're feeling like you're down in the deepest dumps, you can't help but smile.

2. When you're in a super bad mood, they would either stay away or make you feel better: whichever you want. Usually make me feel better by abiding to my every command. And they don't really take to heart when you shout at them. They will always totally understand. And they never shout back. I don't think I can stand it if I have a sister like me. Seriously.

3. Brothers like mine are tech savvy. When your computers goes kaput, it takes them just a few seconds to fix the problem. Or if you need to have enhance a digital photo or do technical things, they're always ready to help:) Unless they're playing starcraft/warcraft and etc.

4. When you need them to accompany you, they always will:) Like going outside because you need to walk somewhere. Or driving you to a place because women-drivers-who-drive-alone-are-easy-targets. I mean, they're guys. So, it's easier. I always have 5 bodyguards at hand!:) Or at least 3. Two more on the way:)

5. They stick straight to the point. If that dress doesn't match with that tudung, they say so. Things like that.
6. They are super smart. They read things like Outliers or Blink or Tipping Point and motivational books and all that. Or, they explore around the net and show you super cool things like a super slow motion clip of a guy being slapped and how his face would elastically be squashed by the impact.

7. They don't read mushy novels or watch romance tv shows. They are strictly either cartoons or action pack or national geographic.

8. They eat a lot:D So you don't mind either when you eat a lot too. They aren't ENTIRELY self conscious of their weight and appearance like how a girl can be.

9. They're loud and noisy. So you'll never feel lonely. And when you DO come home after a looong tiring exasperating 5 days of nonstop studying, they run to you at the door and welcome you like you've been away for 5 years.
10. THey can't wear your clothes. But you can wear theirs so you have like... 5 times the number of clothes:p

So there you go:) I would never ever trade any of my brothers for anything in the world. I can for sure add more we'll leave that for next time yeah;)
