She's blond with blue eyes.
I'm brunette with grey-green-blue eyes.
My sister has [relatively] clean hands and almost always has painted nails.
I have rough, inkstained, callused fingers and I bit my nails.
My sister has a very interesting personality.
I...don't.
My sister loves all things pink.
I don't.
My sister always paints her nails and puts on lip gloss before going out in public.
I only apply a little blush and mascara, sometimes lipstick, before going out for a VERY special occasion. Not a trip to Walmart. >.>
My sister is almost always in front of our bedroom dresser, making jewelry, colouring pictures, or doing something girly.
I am almost always at my laptop or wandering around outside looking for inspiration and writing.
She wants to marry Prince Charming.
I couldn't care less about marriage right now.
She likes "fluffy" coffee, with whipped cream and chocolate.
I like mine black, no cream or sugar.
She wrestled with an alligator when we went to Florida for my little brother's Make a Wish Trip.
I stayed safely in the audience with my camera.
She likes tea parties and fancy dresses.
I like a cup of tea while wandering around the backyard in a denim skirt and loose tee-shirt.
She's photogenic [I LOVE taking pictures of this girl.]
I am NOT.
Do you get the picture yet? ;-)
Even though we're different, we still [mostly, ahem] love each other. Last night we were up at 12 giggling over stupid things, I don't even really remember WHAT. All I know is that I love my sister, no matter how different we are.
What about you? Which of your siblings is your opposite? Which one is pretty much your twin, you're so alike?
Blessings,
~Laura
Hi there Laura!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great post! I have a sister, who in this case is older than me by 2 1/2 years.
We are so different and yet we get along really well. My sister is blonde and blue-eyed, I am a brunette and brown-eye(similar huh?). My sister likes to talk to animals, and I like to talk to humans. I love to read and write and my sister would rather burn the books and pencils! I love to sit and dream up stories, my sister likes to move around and do exercises. Though unlike you and your sister, we both couldn't care less about marriage. But she'll probably get married coz she's so much prettier than me! I want to be a matchmaking spinster:-) My sister is so photogenic and I am SO not. I always stay behind the camera when I can...
Love your blog by the way!
