Satisfied

I just got home after dropping my sister off at DD. Gawd, I missed driving. Even if it was only a 10 minute trip, it was worth it. Actually, I'm not allowed to drive anymore since my license had expired last February. But there was no other choice coz both my parents are at work today. Yes, I was the last resort. Boohoo! So sad. Before, even if I was too tired to drive, they'd still ask me to give them a ride. Anyway, my sister can drive, however, my dad won't allow her to drive alone, which is a little too much I think. She's been driving for about 2-3 years already and still my dad is hesitant to leave her on her own. I feel sorry for her at times coz it means that my dad still don't trust her driving skills. But how would she learn if he keeps on pushing her aside? But how would she learn if he keeps on pushing her aside? They should know that they can't protect her all the time. She needs to make mistakes for her to learn. I actually told my parents to let her drive by herself today, but they still wouldn't. But why? What are they afraid of? Look at me. I've been into a lot of minor accidents before. Years back, I remember crashing our van in our damn garage and the back windshield was totally wrecked. We ended up ordering a P10,000 worth of windshield in Japan (our van was a Honda import). It's the stupidest thing. I wonder why my parents still let me drive. Does it have something to do with the birth order?

I love being the big sister because I usually get what I want before anyone else, which is great. Sounds unfair? That's life my friend. But just to let you know, I'm not the favorite daughter of my parents. They don't have any. Well, maybe KB. But she's different. She's very special and she needs more attention than any of us. She has CP since childhood, so she needs to be cared for. Anywho, being next in line is not always a happy place to be. Parents expect a lot from their first born. I should know. There's always pressure and responsibilities are too much to handle at times, so you have to learn to sacrifice a little. I'm not complaining or anything. I am actually happy about the way things are.
