After four days of class, we can’t still feel the changes my brother promised. He said that he will change his attitude if he gets into college. He even promised he will grow up and start to get serious towards school. Unfortunately, he keeps on doing the same old thing even if the classes already started. He still goes home at eleven in the evening, plays computer at the internet café and wakes up really late for school.
I know it is a bit early to whine about this since it is still the first week of class. But, I can’t help myself from getting too mad after he says that he doesn’t want to go to school anymore. He added that he thought when he is in college his daily allowance will be five times more than his high school allowance, as if the allowance we gave him isn’t enough. His older sister who is in the same school was able to save much from the same amount of allowance I give her. He also added that he will not go to school without new laptop and so much more.
Well, my brother next to me already gave a new cellphone to motivate him. I also purchased all the hip hop clothes other than school uniform. But, he still wants more than what we can afford.
This is not a good indication for me and my brother as well. He is already very lucky to have almost all everything he needs like money for tuition fee. During our time, we have to work for it just to finish our education. Well, I had enough conforming to his whim and foolishness. He is my brother and I love him, but I can’t tolerate this kind of manipulative attitude. If he is not interested in going to school, then so be it. The idea will make us better off as we can enjoy our income rather than spend it on him.
