I am an only child
which makes me posting on here seem a little pointless. However I have discovered that this means I get to choose my own siblings from all of the friends I've had over the years, and this is one of the best things in the world. I have 3 - 2 little sisters and a big brother.

Little sister number 1 - Louise. My best friend from school, I have known her since we were 4 years old. We have been through everything together, starting periods, first boyfriend, first broken heart, that manic world called secondary school, starting uni, although she will probably never finish as she's just dropped out. She's completely insane and completely honest with me and I can't ever stay mad at her. She's also the most random person I know - "You have an attractive bum crack, I'd like to put cheese down it." She's amazing.

Little sister number 2 - Sophie. I met her when we started uni. She was the first person to say hello to me and we've been inseperable ever since. We've been living together for 2 and a half years and Im not looking forward to the summer when she's moving away to go to nursing school, as she's a medical school dropout. She taught me to cook and keeps both my feet firmly on the ground when I need it. She can be hard work at times cos she has severe depression and it breaks my heart when she's really ill, cos she's one of the nicest people on the planet and just doesn't deserve it. She held me when I cried after my boyfriend had had a bad car accident, but this was after she's only been discharged from the local psychiatric ward the day before, so it was a complete role reversal. She's had winter vomiting the past couple of days so we spent New Year's Eve on the sofa curled up with non-alcoholic mulled wine and High School Musical. I love her.

Big Brother - Chris. One of the first people I made friends with in my year at uni. He can read me better than anyone I know. He's had me crying down the phone at him more times than I can remember and yet always seems to put everything right with a curry, beer and some Eddie Izzard. He's also my brother cos we can bicker like it too - an hour ago I may have been crying on him cos my ex at the time had upset me and then in front of everyone at uni he'll poke me in the ribs and call me fatty and we'll start throwing things at each other. He's great.

So there we go, being an only child has its advantages :p
