Having a Sibling is having an assurance that you will have a Best Friend for life. Siblings are family, but the formalities generally associated with a family can be cast away when to comes to dealing with siblings. My little brother (not so little now), was one Best Friend I could never get tired of. The fact that we shared a good percentage of our genes and a roof above our heads made it just impossible to not love him. I had not seen him for almost six months and was excited that he was coming to visit me. I drew many plans and eagerly awaited his arrival.
I kept seeing the clock and could hardly sleep the night before he arrived. Unfortunately I had work and requested my best friend to receive him at the airport. My brother was extremely co-operative and accompanied my friend. They had a great time together and had pizza for breakfast. They had several common passions that included motorbikes, TV-series and annoying me :P
As I entered the house an hour after his arrival, I felt a wave of nostalgia creeping into me. He was finally here! We exchanged notes and chatted as my roommate pampered us with biscuits and coffee.
Over the next few days we tried several cuisines including Chinese and Thai Vegetarian Food. We visited Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum and several other iconic places in Singapore. We had a great time revelling in our shared craziness.

Salute! In front of the Parliament
On the last day of his brief Sojourn, we had planned to visit the Bird Park and head out for Dinner, however our plans were thrashed as I caught a cold and fever and could barely move. We spent the day chit-chatting and eating whatever was available in the house. My room mates and friends entertained us and we had a lovely day. I was glad that I had the cold as it gave me the opportunity to spend time with my brother and friends without having to sift through the hustle of the city.
The next day, as I accompanied him to the airport, I felt sad that he was leaving, but knew that I would be meeting him again as I was going home.
The places we visit are seemingly insignificant as compared to the people we meet. A big thanks to all my buddies in Singapore for making my brothers trip to Singapore a memorable one.It would be difficult to thank everyone who took time to visit us and made this trip a memorable one,but some people really need to be thanked! A special thanks to my best friends Mahalakshmi and Siddharth and my Roomies Ananya and Shruti for filling in for me.
