Ugghh Siblings.....

Hiya,

Right now I hate my brother, I was going to blog about phases but now I'm going to blog about them.

I have both my parents living together and I am the eldest of three (girl, boy, girl).

My brother is very manipulative of my little sister who he is four years older than.

Mum told me to go downstairs and keeping eye on my younger siblings. I went downstairs and they were silently fighting. Every time my sister tried to whimper, squeal or call out for help he would pinch her nose and cover her mouth. I sat down on the sofa and my brother lashed out at me kicking me in the side and glaring at me.
They continued to fight until I started shouting at them to stop. They both then started telling me to turn the volume of my iPad down, my little sister parroting everything my brother said. Bearing in mind that the tv was on full volume and my iPad on two, I turned my iPad up. My little sister out of poor judgement then decided to attack me head butting my chin and making me bite my tongue. I then loose my cool and start shouting. My mum then comes crashing down the stairs having no idea what happened and starts shouting at me.

• My brother is the middle child and the only boy so he tends to get his way a lot and shows off about it when parents aren't watching.
• He thinks he's one of the cooler kids at school (he's not).
• He has school exams coming up and has to have a tutor, he plays up and deliberately fails his homework to get attention. That also means that if you want to do anything it's: no I'm busy, your brother is working, just do it yourself.

Did I do something wrong and does anyone know how to make better relationships with your siblings? Please comment below!!!!(also because I want to know if anybody actually reads this??)

First Flyer

Hiya girls,

Last week I travelled alone for the first time. I am barely old enough to travel alone and was terrified.

Loads of people get nervous about traveling, it doesn't matter if you live in the middle of nowhere or the centre of London, everybody is bound to get a little worried about travelling alone.

The truth is though that an airport is one of the safest places to be on earth. They have the tightest security (I am about to get on my plane home ( as I write this )and at security a woman gave my bag a random swab check and then did it to every other person after as well, they really don't take any risks when it comes to your safety!).

Top Flying tips:

•  Have everything you need for security easily accessible, tablets, laptops and liquids. It will make the whole experience run more smoothly and you're less likely to get annoyed looks from the people queuing behind you.
• Buy your snack and drink before you get on the plane because you will find it a lot cheaper in the WHS then you would on board the plane.
• Name your suitcase, it will make finding it a lot easier if you loose it.
• Put your boarding pass inside where your picture is so that you can find both of them really quickly and have the page of your passport you need marked out ready for checking.
• If somebody stops you and you haven't done anything wrong, don't worry. They're probably just doing random security checks for your and other people's safety.
• Have time wasters, other then electronics, for the plane. I suggest: books, crosswords, a pad for doodling, e.c.t. ... If you do bring electronics make sure you have earphones and whatever things you need downloaded from the Internet.
•  If your plane does get delayed, don't worry. Call the person who's at the other end and tell them you're delayed.
• Last but not least, don't panic. If things get really bad go to departures and get somebody to pick you up.

Tiny tip- don't leave present buying 'till the last minuet. You can get more personal gifts outside of the airport, cheaper too.

When actually on holiday respect your parent's wishes because if they find out you've abused their trust then they may not let you go on holiday alone again.

Not much can go wrong and everything that does can be fixed.

Sport or Not (secondary school)

Hiya all,

When moving up to secondary school you begin to realise that PE teachers don't like you if your not good at sport. And I'm definitely not good at any sport.

Now you get a choice:

You can not care and bear it.

Or you can work hard and try to improve.

I'm going to try to help you with both.

If you want to do the latter and improve in sport overall try to play so ball games in the garden or at the park and also just do some overall cardio and muscle building exercises to try and gain more hand eye coordination and stamina. Also taking up a sport that involves running can help with all sports.

If you just want to bear it keep your head down in games, don't make a big deal out of it, always remember your kit and never join a sport club that involves any of your PE teachers unless you're okay at the sport.

Hope that helped with something.

In two weeks I'm flying alone by myself for the first time so I'll probably blog about that if nothing else exciting happens between now and then.
