Dear Stranger
The anticipated moment is finally coming although I haven't decided how I should feel about it yet until the day finally arrives. I will finally meet this so called sister in law of mine when my brother comes back from Vietnam. After speaking with my little siblings, it makes sense that we all feel indifferent about this event because we have no connection with my brother's wife. My parents are excited because their first daughter in law is finally coming and they have met and talked to her plenty of times whereas we have no clue about anything about her nor spoke to her before. The way I see it is that they have been married for a few years now knowing that one day she will be moving here and yet neither my brother nor herself made any attempt to speak with any of us. If she doesn't give a flying fug about us then we shouldn't care about her either and my idiot brother never even spoke about her to us either so basically she's nothing more than a stranger. I understand my brother is not the type of person that is capable of speaking or expressing his feelings but we should once hear from him that his wife name is blah blah because we all know her name isn't my brother's wife. After my father picked me up from the airport, we were discussing a few things and he just had to point out that I should be nice to her. I could care less about her at this moment and I can play nice as long as she doesn't get in my way because I run this bish, this is my house. However, hearing my mother speaking with her over the phone, she seems either soft spoken or as ignorant as my brother. I had always wanted a verbally strong woman for him because he can't seem to do that for himself so we'll see how they complement each other.

Real Love Can Wait
How do you know when someone's love is genuine? You really can't but you can make a decent guess. Some people think that for a love to be real, you have to be spontaneous and crazy and just rush into things, but that's not love, that's just hormones. The reason why it's hormones is because after everything is said and done, you will realize that you're screwed because your mind was clouded and lost in the moment that you both didn't think things through. Sure, the excitement will last for awhile but since everything was so rushed, you have built a life together so fast but what's next? You're young but you can't do anything because now you're married with kids, have debt up the ying yang, a mortgage, and a low paying job. You may think you're happy now but years down the line, you will see that you wasted your life by trying to start it so early. If you really love someone then you would do everything to give them the world, but you can't give them much if you have no real foundation to build on. I have noticed a trend in high school sweet hearts, who have dated for about a decade or more. The ones who did not go further in life by going to college or a technical school, they are the ones who either have low paying jobs if they have a job at all or have kids that they cannot handle or both and are usually married right after high school. Whereas the ones who did go to college tend to finish school and find a high paid job and work a few years before even thinking about planning the wedding and having kids because before they make the next leap, they would have the time and money to live for themselves and enjoy life before moving onto the next chapter in life. I just think having kids when you're young isn't a measure of love but more of a means to lock someone down so they cannot escape you but that's not love, that's just pathetic and plain crazy.
