I was watching Gladiators today and it’s so annoying how the referee ALWAYS shouts CHALLENGER ARE YOU READY then GLADIATOR ARE YOU READY as if we’re all deaf. I mean, can you imagine one of them saying, ‘oh wait, let me fix my shoelace’ in the middle of it. It gets so annoying after a while.

Oh my gosh, my brother’s going through a certain stage where he thinks he’s so cool by dancing like Mr Bean in the middle of our lounge room (which is enough for me to be blinded by) and acting as if he’s one of the characters in numerous movies with super powers and unrealistic fighting skills. Who else has siblings going through the same thing??

Stage 1: Ninja stage
After watching TMNT shows, he buys heaps of those action figures and is constantly taking them out on the floor and making them fight each other. And I thought this was bad.

Stage 2: Pokemon stage
Collecting cards and models to his heart’s content and upon arrival to my cousins house always makes sure he has asked them (at least once) whether they want to ‘battle’ him. While I get bored watching them debate how much HP was left I go excuse myself to use the computer. ><

Stage 3: The Jedi stage.
Simply walking by his room to see him waving a fake plastic lightsaber (which he though was called a lifesaver until I told him) around crazily making SZCERM noices and “fighting” an invisible robot. Uh huh. I was scared too. And he still occasionally gets it out to whack yet another invisible being.

And currently…

Stage 4: Indiana Jones
It is so weird how one commercial can spread to seeing Indiana Jones products everywhere. Like 10 different Lego versions, DVD box sets, fake whips with SOUND EFFECTS. YAY! >< In fact, as I write this, he is watching one of the movies now. But insists on my dad watching with him as it may get ‘scary’ but when I inform him that it is M rated he says it doesn’t matter and that he can watch it. Hypocrite. Every time, I mean LITERALLY every time, something that reminds him of that guy in a cowboy hat swinging onto a truck he gets all excited and starts jumping up and down saying LOOK LOOK! The other day we passed a bus stop poster. Oh boy. Instantly, OOH OOH! LOOK AT THAT! As if I had never seen a poster before.

So, who else has a brother going through this same thing?? Or maybe my bro’s just weird. Sounds slack but the truth hurts. I’m not trying to be mean. Just writing ideas for my to-be-bestselling book, LIFE WITH MY BRO. Haha. Joking.

Anyway, enough about my life. I’m meant to be doing Commerce assignment now so this post ends here. X

No, wait, here. X
