Getting good grades is really something, but it is not everything.

I was a bit sad the day before yesterday because my younger brother and I fought again. But last evening, we learned to forgive each other.

He asked both I and my younger sister to answer a riddle. The three of us started discussing about riddles.. Then my mother and father joined us. My father also grabbed his turn in asking all of us.. His riddles though were rather silly and really needs you to ask him for some clues.. When he tells you the answer and we'd tell him.. "Why didn't you give that as a clue?" He always answered, "You didn't ask me." So the game continued and all of us went laughing for silly answers to questions.. Until sometime, one of our visitors, my aunt, hearing the commotion, suddenly joined us.. The moment she started delivering her riddle story, we laughed, because that was really unexpected of her.. my brother, immediately solved her riddle which made all of us laugh even more.. we were telling her how old her riddle was.. Hahahahha! lol..

So there the night went.. I continued what I was doing at our computer.. Just thinking to myself that our family was blessed last night to have been given the opportunity to bond.. :)
