Tell me about your brother(s)

Isolated [Edit] [Delete] 03:10, 11 April '09

I'm dying to DiScuss this with someone so it's turned into a thread.

When I left Canada, my brother was a slightly eccentric, chubby asexual video games geek. Seriously. He never went out with friends, wasn't into anything but sitting on his bum playing one of the hundreds of games we have on the 40-inch tv he bought solely for that purpose. But since I've left, he's:
-lost two stone and weighs barely over 10st now
-started buying smarter clothing instead of wearing the same things over and over
-gone on a date
-taken out a gym membership
-gone to a party and arrived home in the wee hours of the morning
And now he's going to be in a John Cusack movie. Every week I speak to my mum brings more jaw-dropping info about the life of Cam.

My other brother is a congenial, popular and intelligent tennis prodigy.

So...what are your siblings like? Are you similar in temperaments? Do you get on? If you had to compare, where would you fit in-are you the success story or the one everyone shakes their heads at and wonders what went wrong?

Though I've made some cool accomplishments- namely, moving overseas by myself- I think my brothers are generally more interesting than me. Also, I'm not impressed that of the three of us, I'm going to be the fat one, without actually being fat.
