Bleagh....corny posts are soooo not me. But I have the urge to just type something out corny and embarrassing XD For the birthday boy XD
Right let's see.....Daniel Chai...
Daniel has been my brother for 16 years. I kinda lived off perfectly fine without him the first year of my life (Actually it's 1 year and 4 months and...9 days!) XD Maybe cause then I was such a cute brat with no worries in the world except my phlegm overloaded lungs.
And theeeen....Daniel came into the picture! Hah! Talk about baby rivalries. I aaaalways had to give him this and give him that, just because I was the "elder sister" =.= And maybe that time he already knew that I was at an disadvantage (I mean, kids are scarily smart! Maybe our IQ decreases as we age O_O) and would go around picking fights with me and he would always ALWAYS want my stuff!!! MY STUFF!! Heck when there was a time I played with dolls (yes, dolls) he would fight with me over them too! Come to think of it, maybe he was doing it on purpose....what happened to all his rubber ducks and cars?!
And the thing we always ALWAYS fought over was....Mc D Power Rangers figurines O_O I wanted the black one...and I said he could take the white one (well I thought white ranger was cool too! So I let him have the cool one) But would he take it? Nooooooo...He wanted the black one too! So when I decided to take the white one...HE WANTED BOTH! Greedy bastard. Pfft....
Anyway, so there was the stage where we were like cats and dogs. We would play, laugh and fight. And we even made up a song where Daniel was King of the World...Ahh...good old times.... Then after singing that song we would give a really big "AHHHH" and roll down the this.....hmm...I don't really know what to call it but we just destroyed the baby crib and made it our playground.
Our favorite food when we were younger was eggs and salt. Never grew tired of it. =P Especially when my cousin would come over and we would all put a blanket over the computer desk and act like we're camping.
The thing about Daniel that I
admired the most then still admire now is his ability to eat EVERYTHING! I mean everything! And with that he always got praises from my mom and I would always be compared to him. Which made me soooo jealous! He could even stand the taste of Scott's Cod Fish Emulsion whereas I would run away at the very name of it. He would eat celery, brinjal...just....everything! So my mom would always go "Esther, look, if Daniel can eat it why can't you?" Bah....jealousy jealousy.
In fact, come to think of it, when I was younger I was ALWAYS compared to Daniel! (bad for me) When we were in primary school he was the "
pandai pandai" one where he would finish his homework, have nice handwriting, and all the teachers would tell my parents how good he was.
Me? I always had to bring my parents to meet the teachers cause I would hide my workbooks, telling the teacher I lost it, and not do my homework to the extent my workbooks were all cleans (and it started in Primary 1!). So yea....MORE jealousy...it was always Daniel this, Daniel that...You should be like Daniel like this, and Daniel like that...
Not to mention because Daniel resembles my mother more. I always had this thinking that she loved him more. Cause my mom always scolded me even when Daniel was in the wrong cause I was the "elder sister". =.= More jealousy anyone? =P
Also, our fights were really ...fights! Well since I was fighting this brat who was the same size as me. And there were no such thing as "gentlemanly kids in fights" So obviously no backing down. Fights would range from fists to objects(will not name them) and the famous "how Esther got her scar fight", our rule was no pinching. Pinching was cheating. If you want to fight, fight with your damned fist.
Aaaaand....well I can't say I always lost during the fights, I won my part and Daniel won his part. When fights end we would lock ourselves away from each other until something caught our interest and we would just click and start talking all over again.
Because mom and dad were rarely home, with work and all, the two of us grew up quite close. We were watched over by the maid then, and the both of us would play pranks on her (now that I think about, I feel quite horrible). We needed to learn to settle things between ourselves on our own since by the time my parents could come home to settle it FOR us, it was waaaaay past and we would be laughing and playing like it never happened in the first place.
Owh and Daniel was always the cute one. Pfft. He was cute in pictures, cute when he laughed and even cute when he cried! =.= Jealousy jealousy!
Theeeen....puberty hit! And that guy developed a freaking split personality inside the house and outside the house. At home he would be hyper as hell and go all dramatic on me, while outside he would be quiet and sit in the corner and just stare at the ground. =.= The result? Everyone thought he was EMO! And I tried time and time again to tell everyone he wasn't! But would they listen? Noooooo.... And thus, came the name Emo boy. O.o
Then he begin to open up, made friends, and stuff like that. And we just grew closer and here we are today! And NOW! =.= There are no fights cause there's no need to fight. Daniel wins, hands down. T_T
And so was the life of D Cai. Who is currently playing HoN and DotA and would teach me lots of new stuff. Daniel was the one that introduced me to MCR and ANYTHING that is English and non-gospel. I lived under a rock for the past 15 years of my life so I only knew gospel songs and a few old songs which I heard on TV when I was younger. Daniel was also super afraid of this frothy Ultraman monster we call "Alagu xing ren" LOL! Daniel's afraid of insects and heights. He loves to sleep and go all drama on me (still does ya know?) and he has been permanently polluted by Naim's lameness and Wei Jin's idiocy and Marcus's meanness =.= Ahh but we still agree on lots of things. =P Like HoN addicts are idiots which will die when they open beta =D
People say we're an odd pair of siblings. I don't really know about that. I mean, what's wrong with MSN-ing your brother when he's downstairs and SMS-ing him when we're in the same car and calling him when we're in the same building? It's perfectly normal! O.o
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIEL!
YOU'RE ONLY 16 ONCE! DROP THE ROTI BAKAR!
GET YOUR SHOES!! XD
My brother is awesome. He's the ultimate jerk and the ultimate kind brother.
That's what all brothers are hmm?
He's sleeping now. God knows what time he slept last night
XD
Love you DCai! Don't forget my diamonds next year!
