*streches and smiles*

I happened to take a closer look at my ID a few weeks back and noticed that it would expire in May this year. My memory fails me as to how long it takes to produce an ID card, but I figure that I need to take my picture within the next week or so. This prompted me to have a look at my passport, since any travelling is sort of dependant on it still being valid, hehe. It's lasting until 2012, so I won't have to rush a pretty day for that one :p

So far there are two old passports in my archives, one from when I was about 9 years old and the other one is from when I went to Iceland (15 years old). The first passport was a rushed one and my dad was in charge for them to happen. Which meant that not much emphasis was put on looking spectacular *lol* But it's cute, in a childish kind of way.
Passport number two was taken just a few days after I got my braces removed and it came out really good. I'm still pleased with it. If it weren't for the fact that it expired, I would've still liked to use it ^_^;

The latest passport picture, along with the ID one, are also pretty good. My hair was braided in the ID picture and when I bought my last computer, the sales clerk said he thought I looked like Pocahontas *giggles*

I bet you're all asking why I'm babbling on about this, unless you're all dismissing me as being naturally silly again ~_^

Well, I've not come across many people who were satisfied with their ID/Passport picture and I was curious as to your thoughts on yours. Maybe you'd even like to share a story or two ? *grins and throws out pillows on the floor, pulls out the popcorn and invites everyone to take the miniature stage*


In other "sister news", my older one came home from her England visit yesterday and I'll be sure to ask her about the punctuation thing today *nods at Shin*
And she gave me a link to this absolutely freaky video before she left (which I thought was so disturbing, I deleted it *cough* but I got her to send it to me again) that I'll include in a later post. You may have to remind me about it though, since there are things in this post that I meant to have in older posts ^_^;;;


And sister news number 2, relating to my younger one and my PS2; I have been "assured" that it'll be handed back to me next week and I might even be "allowed to borrow FFX-2".

Because as she put it: "I bought it".... She actually stressed that point....

(I'm really trying not to rant about how spoilt and bratty she is, but that just made me flinch when she said it. )

Ever since the older sister bought FFVII and a Playstation, my younger sister and I have co-bought all the games released on Playstation (dad got us the console, so we shared that) and taken turns playing them. Usually she'd watch me play through a game and then have a go herself. It was a sister-sister thing.

I paid for my PS2 and FFX on my own, since she didn't have that kind of money to chip in. But she's always had access to it and for the past months she's even had it all to herself.

To then, completely out of the blue, buy FFX-2 and stall on giving me my PS2 back, added with that remark, seriously dented my goodwill against her.

But

I've worked way too hard to put things right between us these last couple of years, to see it completely wasted... so I'm going to try and be the mature one.

(yeah, I used to come down pretty hard on her in the past. But at the same time I would always look out for her and if anyone tried to hurt her, they'd have me to answer to. "Poke fun of me and I'll laugh, spite my sister and I'll kill you", you know ?)

Even if she is a spoilt brat and in need of a good verbal kicking >________>

I will end the post with some links and mention that I got Matrix Reloaded in the mail today. And I'll add some buttons later today (if I can work out my HTML alright *coughs*) *drools over all the pretty buttons*
