A dream that never come true...

More often than not i would find noisy kids onboard irritating and will naturally volume up my FM radio to 'cover' the annoying ear drum piercing scream, weep and laughter. However the sight of two siblings caught my attention today and i actually turned down the volume just to listen to their conversation haha :p. I even had the urge to snap their pic but afraid that their parents will sue me haha!

Each of them was holding a little puzzle book (those word finding puzzles that i used to play in my younger days) and were busy working on it. The smart looking brother was more serious and he would smile to himself whenever he find a matching word while the younger sister was abit restless and kept looking out of the window. After awhile, the sister began to disturb his brother and that's where the interesting part came in.

Sister: "Kor, i'm very cold, can you turn away the aircon cause i can't reach it..."

(i'm very sure she was just trying to catch his brother's attention since she was wearing long sleeves and the aircon wasn't even blowing directly at her :p)

Being a big brother, he did what his sister asked him to and returned to his book again.

Sister: "Kor, how many pages left?"

Brother: "A few only...Don't talk anymore, complete yours before we alight. See, you have so many pages left."

Sister: "Of course you are faster cos there are answers behind yours but not mine mah..." (cheeky :p)

(Brother ignored sister and again, she tried her luck to strike another conversation.)

Sister: "Kor, how come there's water outside the window? I can't wipe it off leh..."

Brother: "This is because the water condenses and become vapour and furthermore the interior is colder than the exterior so you can't touch the vapour."

(I got to take my hat off to the 7/8 yr old kid! He was so patient and explained in details, with actions to his sister, not knowing if that makes any sense to the 4/5 year old girl.)

I always have a dream and that's to have a elder brother. Yes, i'm the elderest in the family and some of you might ask, why not elder sister? Well, i just hope for a elder brother haha! That is because he can protect me when in danger, pacify me when i cry, adore me EVERYTIME, fight back for me when i'm being bullied, educate me and tell me facts & stories keke! But this dream will never come true...I told Mum about it but she said i'm too kiasu...Rushed to be the 1st to born! Hmm...Lame...haha! As if i have a choice yea...LOL
