the woes of being an older sister

i spent today at home. with my sisters and family friend, heather (she's only 9). our mummies had gone to chit-chat at some rowdy club selling tequila shots for 50cents each. no, i kid :P as if that would ever happen. the mums were at some nice peaceful cafe eating lunch and having coffee while the kids made their own fun at home.

i was, HAD to play mother hen of course. since i'm the oldest and i have to learn how to be 'responsible'. pfft, yeah right. so i put DVD's on, took them to the park, made them lunch and attempted to entertain them while the rain poured. oh god, i felt like so old when i was cutting the crusts off and asking for their preferences in filling (nutella, peanut butter or jam).

the mummies came back around mid-afternoon and saved me :) i dont even get PAID for it! so now i am back to normal, being a 'moody' teenager. *rolls eyeballs* oh apparently i've got to stop doing that, my mama says its a bad trait (both the eyeball rolling and moodiness). but who am I to care? :P

ALSO i couldn't find my phone before. i kept on looking around and around for it. i was definitely put it on the front table before. very strangely, i found it plugged into the charge. wtf? i took it out and attempted to turn it on. but instead of coming up with my wallpaper, there was a plain white screen. obviously some idiot had broken it and attempted to put it back without anyone noticing. of course everyone denied touching it. i bet it was chelsea or natasha, they're always playing with my stuff. argh, younger siblings. they're such brats sometimes (most of the time). i know i'll probably get a wave of hate-mail for saying that, cos the majority of my friends are the youngest sibling.

not happy, joe

so this morning I was as happy as a....errr...well i was happy, ok?
I had only woke up about five minutes ago and was still lying in bed, thinking about what to bring to the swimming outing. when suddenly my youngest sister, natasha walks in and start to say in a mocking tone "you can't go! you can't go!"

I already knew what she was refering to, but just hoped that my assumption was wrong. "go where?" I asked faking confusion. "to swim with your friends! hahahahhahahaha..." replied natasha. for once in my life, I wished I had been wrong. (oh and i also kicked her outta my room for bringing in BAD news)

WHY CAN'T I GO? 1) I am 'mildly' sick 2) it is cold and windy outside 3) Apparently I will get sicker if I go swimming bcos my hair would get wet.

however I can find a solution to all these things: 1) i will get better 2) wearing a jacket and long clothes will prevent me from feeling cold 3)the pool is INDOOR and there's this thing called a hairdryer.

but NO ONE listens to hillary. NO, no one does :( that is why i am confined to this prison hole instead of being out and about with my friends. sorry guys :( but its not like i dont want to go!

halfies, babies and boyfriends.

ok, you guys can guess from the title that this post is going to be veeeeeery 'interesting'

yesterday night, i went out with my family to have dinner at this chinese restaurant in burwood.
chan's garden restaurant...i think it was? so everybody was busy chomping on noodles when mum points out this really really really cute baby. she's got these browny-blonde hair, big brown eyes and she's wearing a cute pink beanie with a little bobble on top. not only that but she's giggling and smiling (OMG she has dimples too!) while her grandpa spoons her food. "awww..." everyone coos at her.

usually people would just talk about how cute she is and stuff. not my family though. they'd rather talk about the fact that she's a halfie and how halfie babies are soooo much cuter then 'normal' ones (plus how they look hotter when grown up). great, does that mean i'm ugly? maybe compared to halfies? :( so i zoned out for a bit, cos there was this cartoon in mandarin on the tv :)

when i come back to earth, the subject's changed. now it's about boyfriends. how did we get to this? hoping that none of it would affect me, i put my head down and pretended to be really intersted in the contents of my tea cup. dammit, plan A was ruined, as they wanted my opinion CRAP, its time for my back-up plan, SET PLAN B INTO MOTION IN 5, 4, 3, 2, 1....GO! urrhh...that would've worked if only i'd actually had a plan B.

last year my parents had this WHOLE lecture about not having a boyfriend until I was 18 and finished with my HSC. that's all gone down the bin right after the interesting conversation over dinner. it seems like I, Hillary from the 18/04/09 had been granted permission to have a boyfriend at the age of 16. wowee....its nothing short of a miracle, is it? also after the long part about halfies, my mum said she wanted PRETTY grandchildren. my first thought was 'isnt that a bit vain?' but then i realized that she was hinting something :S

christine reckons its a hint to drop outta school in year 10 and be a teenage mother. so now folks, thats my life plan! hahaha no, not really. or as georgia would say APRIL FOOLS!

first blog

FINALLY i've made my blog. took ages going through the sign up. i kept on asking questions about this and that (probably annoyed my friends in the process).

pressure is mounting! how am I going to live up to everyone else? all their first blogs are interesting and funny. It doesn't help with the fact that I keep on deleting things, cos i reckon they'll sound stupid (knowing the stuff that comes out of my mouth).

well tra-la-la-la....i think its time to go. my eyes are kind of hurting from staring at the screen too long. plus i was supposed to be off ages ago- whoopsies.
