My four best freinds

THE WOONIES

Me, Marianne, Amelia, Melanie, Clement

Growing up with four siblings had made my childhood an interesting journey where i was constantly given the chance to live life with fuelling curiosity and creativity. Together, we were really fascinated with the world around us and would find little things (even in our house) rather ...engaging.

My siblings and i would spend hours at the garden plucking all sorts of plants to smash it up with a rock to produce herbal soup. We knew plucking those plants and ruining the garden will cause trouble with mum, so we would store the precious herbal soup into a container and hide it underneath a tree to make sure no one gets in trouble, and even if we do, we would blame it on our brother.

The drain outside our house was our mini zoo, with no entrance fee and closing hours, the older siblings would jump in to catch fishes while Melanie and i would just stand at the corner and watch with envy.

The night was always the BEST as we would pull our mattresses into our parents' room to have a MASSIVE slumber party and sometimes we would have a mini performance where the four girls would play as 'Olive' (Popeye's girlfriend from 'Popeye the Sailor Man') where we were getting bullied by 'Bluto' (played by my dad) and was rescued by our hero, Popeye (played by our brother), it was our way of having a bedtime story!

Having four siblings was indeed like having four best friends who are 24-7 with you, so i must say i am a very lucky girl to have them in my life x and yes, i am incredibly homesick as i am writing this post.
