Wow, I guess it's a good thing my brother and I went to different high schools. I never had to deal with people thinking I was a bad student. Bro only suffered from the comparison at home, not school.
Funny thing is, he is more financially successful than I am these days. He's an electrician (did the whole apprentice thing) and does really well. Got the wife who doesn't work, two kids and a nice big ole house. Me? Not so much. And I'm the one who went to college. :shrugs: You never can tell how things are going to work out.

There's some samples available there, and in the very new future the full album should be available on cd baby.

Morning all:) As I mentioned I am very close to my siblings ( despite vast age gap of 6, 8, and 10 years respectively)When they were little I was part mommy, now we're just best friends. Right now we're all in a bit of a decline since baby sis and her husband moved to Missouri for med school ( husband not sis, she's a film school grad)and we all miss her terribly.
I am concerned about all these teachers who are judging a student based on siblings. I will admit to accidentally calling a student by his/her sibling's name ( especially if they looked a lot alike) but each kid should always be treated as a complete individual.
I can't believe I forgot my cell for the second day ( well yesterday I just left it in the car)I left my cell off and at home and I haven't done that in years. First week of school curse strikes again.
I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

This makes me think of an article that came out a month or two ago. Cover story - probably of Time. It was about the influence of siblings, and how they shape us as much or more than our parents do. Interesting - and I can see that being the case in my life.
Have their been new imponderables I missed? It's hard to stay in the loop here! Must back up and look...

My head hurts no little bit. School has begun. Not that I hate it, per se, just the work it requires. I love living with these people... but... there's always the but, right? My but is with my direct roommate. *Sigh* I shan't go into it. But it is imponderable, and it is random.
Party on.
