My family has a very interesting composition. There are 8 of us siblings, 6 from my mother and 2 from my step-mother. We were born in what they call the 'selang bunga' composition - girl, boy, girl, boy etc.. all the way to the last one. Between my sisters, we don't look like we're related unless we're standing all together, or with the one that's immediately before and after us in sequence. For example, Nazeehan and I don't look alike at all, unless we have Najwa standing in the middle - then the similarities emerge.

If you've been reading my blog regularly, you'd know that my sister Najwa has a daughter, Aeisyah Humaira' who is approaching her first birthday in 2 months' time. Interesting that while she definitely looks like her mother, those who remember what I looked like as a baby insist that she looks a bit like me. Either way, it's nice to have another left-handed person in the family - based on the fact that Aeisyah likes to pick up things and slap people with her left hand, my sister has deduced that she is the 4th left-handed person in the family - after me, Nadia and Abduh!
I found this old photo of Najwa and me - take a good look and then have a look at my vast repository of Aeisyah pictures...

ok..now aeisyah do looks like her mother...and najjah..u're so cute till now!! :)

ive come to observe that sumtimes ppl already have some of their character/ traits in-built since day one. (since they were born)
like i use to think that ppl change as they grow, but now i feel that some things will never change in a person.. i know this will lead to the nature vs nurture debate but i just wanted to make this point because when i look at ur baby pic, i can sense (??? or 'see') that 'inner strength / determination' which i felt when i met u at the toastie event. just had to say this. :)
put up my baby pics and see who's the cutest? hehehe.. (everybody in the family knows its me!)
