I know friends who have this sort of incredibly intimate relationship with their sibling. And I don't get it: it wasn't like that in my family.

It's easier to forgive them. I think it's also easier to get mad at them. You feel a little piece of yourself in them.

My brother's my best friend, without a doubt. Me and my big sister get along so well. She moved to East London, though, so points off, but she's wicked. And then my little sister is a little genius. She's super talented and such a great person, always been far more mature and cool than me.
