It's Part of Being Sisters, After All


TO MY SISTER, NYAH.

 

You drive me crazy;

I drive you crazy.

It's part of being sisters, after all.

 

Sometimes you hate me;

Sometimes I hate you.

But we still love each other anyways.

 

You are mean to me;

I am mean to you.

It's part of being sisters, after all.

 

You are sweet to me;

I am sweet to you.

But then we're fighting again.

 

We grew up together, and

 As much as we may not always, exactly

Get along, we feel weird when

The other is not around.

It's part of being sisters, after all.

 

We both love music,

We both like being alone;

We both like attention, despite that, and

We both love our little bro.

 

We both also hate being told what to do;

Your favorite word is literally 'No.'

And we both love helping each

Other pick out what to wear.

It's part of being sisters, after all.

Born in California, moved to Washington at around age five. Interests: singing, writing, reading, binge-watching shows, sleeping, drawing, eating, being awesome, playing solitaire, perfecting the art of being weird, and cute animals. Dislikes: rats, mice, possums, raccoons, weird smells, bugs, spiders that pop out of nowhere (is fine with spiders in general, though), YARD WORK, not getting good grades, FAILING AT ANYTHING, being in second place unless in a good mood, and getting hurt and/or annoyed. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE NOT HEARD THE BAND 'THE RUNAWAYS,' YOU SHOULD TOTALLY LISTEN TO THEM. THAT IS WHERE JOAN JETT STARTED OFF AND THEIR MUSIC IS TOTALLY FIRE!!!!!!!!!! I recommend these songs by said group: I Love Playing With Fire, Blackmail, Cherry Bomb, You Drive Me Wild, Take It or Leave It, Wait For Me, Queens of Noise, Neon Angels on the Road to Ruin, Wasted, and Born to Be Bad. I only just got into their music in the beginning of this month (I got a CD of their music for my birthday :). Before, I had only known the song Cherry Bomb, which I LOVED and then my dad got me a CD of their music. It's almost all I listen to. That, and a collection of Elvis' best records. Any Way You Want Me, Love Me Tender, and I Want You, I Need You, I Love You are three of my favorite songs by Elvis Presley. I like older music. Elvis was (obviously) pretty big and popular way back, and the Runaways were together from 1975 to 1979. They broke up afterwards, but WOW. The Runways actually weren't all that popular in the U.S. (AM SHOCKED AND DISAPPOINTED) but they were really popular in Europe and Japan. I highly recommend Elvis and the Runways to those who have not listened to either one of their music. Also: Listen to The Righteous Brother's Version of Unchained Melody. If anyone has watched Ghost with Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze (*swoon*), the song that goes 'Oh, my love.. My darling, I've hungered for your touch a long lonely time...'? That's Unchained Melody. Please please PLEASE give all of these songs a listen because they are all soooooooooo good!!! You will not be disappointed, for sure!!! Availability hours: Monday-Friday from 8am - 3pm Weekends: FORGET ABOUT IT, SORRY!!!
