There are many moments that come to my mind when I think about my past but there is one in particular, the day my youngest sister was born. I was about eight when she was born. As I am not the oldest and neither the youngest child in my family I didn’t have many responsibilities to take up when my mum was admitted to hospital expecting my sister. I still remember all the hassle she had to go through before getting in the car to go. She was putting together all her clothes wondering where most of them were and screaming her head off when she was talking to my two older sisters. As my other younger sister wasn’t that old she didn’t understand what was happening so being her older brother I had to explain to her where mum was going, but I doubt that she understood. She was still in the illusion that babies were thrown down from the sky and I didn’t want to tell want to be the one to her any different.
When my mum was in hospital my dad had to stay with her meaning my three sisters and I had to stay at home. My little sister was still crying her eyes out wondering where my mum had gone and thought that my mum had left us, so most of my night was spent making her calm down and not sleeping. All night I was waiting for the phone to ring and my dad to tell us that my mum was going to come home with the baby but I stayed up all night and no phone call came.
Three in the morning is when the phone started to ring I had just fallen asleep and didn’t realise it was ringing. It must have rang at least five times before my oldest sister picked it up. I remember my sister screaming her head off when she came into my room telling me to get up. I had forgotten that my mum was in hospital and told her to leave me alone. Then it finally hit me I remembered, my sister finally calmed herself down and told me the news. I was so happy and couldn’t wait for my mum to come home. During the full night as all my sisters and I were awake we had left the house in a big mess. Everyone was in a real rush to clean the house before my mum came home so that there would be nothing to do when the baby came home and we could all play with her.
When my mum did come home with the baby everyone had turned there attention onto the baby so my other youngest sister felt left out. She had been the baby of the family for this long and now all of a sudden she wasn’t the baby any more. Although I really wanted to play with the baby I reassured my sister that everyone still loved her the same and that no one would take her place. It took her a little time to get used to but she got over it.
Well life for me at the moment is perfect I’m currently a year 11 student studying Gnvq ICT, Design Technology, Spanish and Double science. Yes I know what you’re thinking have I gone insane, picking double science believe me I don’t even know what happened when I picked it. It’s hard enough having one science lesson in the day but two is just crossing the limit. O well what’s done is done.
Now I bet your wondering is there anyone special in my life? Well there is. I met her when we were in year 10 we were just good friends then but now she means the world to me.
It all started when I took down her number from her ex boyfriend. She was in my class for a couple of lessons and I wanted to get to know her a little more because we didn’t really talk in class. When I first rang her I could tell she was shocked. To others I come across, as quite a quiet person who keeps to himself but that isn’t the case when I’m talking on the phone. I seem to open up more to people I’m comfortable talking to and she was one of those people.
I didn’t want her to know straight away that I liked her because I didn’t want her to think that I was just phoning her to ask her out. I wanted her to know I could still be a mate as well. When I did finally reveal to her that I liked her she didn’t believe me I opened up my heart to her to let her know how I felt and she didn’t believe any of it she thought I was making the whole thing up as a joke. I don’t blame her for thinking that because I would have to if I had been speaking to someone for quite a long time and they suddenly tell me they like me I wouldn’t believe them straight away either.
As time went on she began to believe me and her feelings became more obvious. We started to flirt more and more and finally when I did ask her out she said yes. Now things are better than ever we are still together and only the other day celebrated our eight-month anniversary. Valentines day is coming up and I want this one to be extra special as it will be my first valentines day spent with her.
I’m looking forward to finishing all my exams and going onto college. I have applied to three colleges, which have my courses. I want to go on and study accounting along with maths and ICT in A levels. I want to pass college and go onto a good university where I want to do a degree in Accounting, a further this into a career.
I believe that when working you should only choose to work in a particular environment if you like it and not just because you are good at it. This makes you have pride in what you do and will give you an enjoyment throughout life. I hope to fulfil my dreams and ambitions in life.
