My little brother~★

I had some funny experience with my family. As you know, it is hard to guess Asian’s age from there looking. I am living with my little brother who is graduate student in SIUC Art department. He is five years younger than me, but he is taller than me. Thus, when my brother introduced me to his friends, they usually think I am younger sister. Maybe because in English, there is no one word for older person. For example, in Korea, we do not call older person’s name.
We have different word for older sister and older brother. Whatever, last year we had the funniest and the worst event.

I and my brother were working on our front yard. I was collecting leaves and my brother was cutting grass. At that time, neighbor came and talked with my brother. After few minutes, neighbor and my brother started to laugh out loud. When the neighbor went back to his house, my brother came and explain why they laughed. Can you guess why they laugh? The neighbor asked my brother, “Is she your wife?” When I heard that I just laugh. However, my brother said it hurt his feeling. After that event, I tried not to act too close to him when we went outside. I don’t want to pretend like his wife or his girl-friend.

Just yesterday, we talked about this situation and one idea came out.
“Let’s print little bro, and big sis on our T-shirts!!!!”
