I dedicate this post to the man whom i give all my love,admiration & respect to.

Since young,ive always look up to u. I always wanted to follow in ur footsteps in wadever u do. Everyone loves u coz ure smart n funny n draws e crowd werever u go. Girls fall for u in a heartbeat & all guys wanna be ur fren coz u own such a great personality. U were e sch's soccer captain & even Clementi Khalsa club capt wen we were younger.Dad would be so proud,coming down everytime u haf a match to support u.

I strive to be jz like u. Trying to match u in every way. All those countless no. of trophies tt were in my rm was almost as much as urs. Intelligence? u were in e best em2 class,so i took one step further n got a spot in e em1 class. Everytime u pulled a prank on me,id be sure to complain to dad n make sure u get scolded & perhaps even cry. we hated each oder den,wit u always calling me a suck-up. but hey,uve always been much closer to Mum.

As we grew older,i appreciate having u around. Wit so much drama under one roof,no friends or relatives could ever understand wad both u & i went tru. Only e 2 of us cld say wad we really felt n noe tt e oder one understood. We still fight occassionally but now,it's jz great conversation & laughter around e hse wen we're all at home tgtr. We cld chat tgtr till late downstairs or jz haf a ball of a time watching dvds tgtr or doing sth tgtr like doing e laundry or learning to play e guitar or playing soccer tgtr wit Edry.

Ive always complain to friends how i hate u sometimes being so fierce.But all these years, uve been like anoder father to me,bsides being jz my brother. Wen i come home late at nite,its u waiting outside e door expecting my arrival n ready to give a warning n its u who rush to my aid wenever i called late at nite n say someone's following me.

U've always tell me how lucky i am to be e 2nd child.That i have someone to guide me tru life,unlike him having to find his own journey,bearing e most responsibility as e eldest child. N uve went tru so much,i cld hardly imagine wad u must have been feeling n thinking all these years.No matter how strong n confident u look on e surface n faced so many obstacles,uve hardly ever broke down in front of us siblings.

Uve worked hard for e family.U fell many times n u pick urself up n went again. All e times u treated us family n hardly buying anyting for urself wit ur own salary. Working till 4 in e morn during ur poly days. n I also rmrbed how worried i was n cldnt stop crying wen u were admitted to e ICU after ur ummpteenth time in a motorcycle accident.

Now that ure facing a hard time, i wan u to noe we're all behind u,that we'll get tru this tgtr,as a family. Ure stronger n more capable in anything den anyone i noe & im sure u'll be someone amazing if given e chance. everyting has its reason n im sure e light at e end of e tunnel is jz abt near. Only anoder true unique talented woman would fit u n our family. & wen e day comes u find tt right woman, perhaps in anoder 5-6 years down e road,wen our family's in a better state den now,im gona take my cap off to u n tell u, "that's how it should have been from the very start" coz u deserve more in life than this.

Blood is thicker than water,i noe this nw.
No words can describe how proud i am to have u as my brother.
Ure e best brother n e best role model i can ever have.
i love u bro <3
