Descriptive Essay About My Sister

Parents spending the majority of their time with a sick child, often leave their other children to take care of themselves.Parents can tend to focus entirely on one child when the others are in need. In the book, My Sister’s Keeper, by Jodi Picoult, a family goes through something many people couldn't even imagine, their daughter being seriously sick. In the town of Upper Derby, Rhode Island in 2004, Brian and Sarah Fitzgerald, the parents in the book, have a sick daughter and learns that she only has a limited amount of time to live.

When most people hear my full name , “Joann Botani," they automatically assume I'm Italian, but truth is I am actually Middle Eastern. From what I know my dad does have a little Italian in his blood but the name “Botani” actually comes from a city in Turkey. I come from an upper-middle class house hold and I have two younger siblings, a brother and a sister. Being the oldest has its challenges because there is so much expected from me whether it is school, work or social life. I tend to think my younger siblings have it easier because I am the one who pushes the boundaries with my parents and because of that my siblings usually get to do what ever the want because it is not as extreme as what I do. It has always been easy for my younger sister because she is the “princess” of the house but I am my dad’s favorite while my brother is a momma’s boy. My family is very competitive when it comes to school and grades, my little brother and I were always duking it out

One can say my relationship with my sister is umm... complicated; one minute we’re fine and the next we want to rip out each others eyeballs. But yet, so many other siblings are like that too, so my sister and I are nothing spectacularly out of the ordinary. In fact, one can say we have a healthy sibling relationship, because of this weird love-hate complex. One great example of an average sibling relationship comes from Harper Lee’s book, To Kill a Mockingbird, where Jem and Scout Finch have a very iconic sibling relationship. My relationship with my sister is extremely similar to Jem and Scout’s relationship.

But, although we are siblings, we are very different in this sense. Presently, I still do not know what I want to be or where I want to end up, even with the help of courses such as Civics and Careers. My dad often lectures me about knowing what I want to be so that I can plan the future out. Moreover, my sister is a very extroverted person, whereas I am introverted. She is very social and not shy at all towards people she does not know. I, on the other hand, am very shy and not good at speaking in public. My parents often scold me for being so shy and quiet and tell me that my sister got to where she is because she was so social. In particular, the largest expectation that was passed onto me from my sister is academics. For the entire time that she attended school, she was always excelling in all her classes and never had any difficulties. Consequently, when I started to go to school, my parents had the same expectations for me. Although my marks were relatively high, they were always low compared to what my sister had gotten. My parents always expected more of me and pushed me to be exactly like her

Few relationships are as special as the bond between sisters. Siblings know us greater than even we know ourselves sometimes; it’s through this insight, their insight, that we can see ourselves better and grow into who we aspire to be. My relationship with my sister is no exception; she’s my best friend. She’s a part of why I am who I am today, and it all started with a name.

The Elder Sister is a painting by a well-known French artist William-Adolphe Bouguereau. This work of art was completed by William in 1869. As a result of research made on this painting, it was found that the painting was anonymously given to the Museum of Fine Arts Houston as a gift in 1992.

In fact, our differences lead to unity in times of outer conflict. According to the article “Theoretical Perspectives on Sibling Relationships,” “as siblings mature, they become more responsible to the needs of one another” (Whiteman, Shawn D., Susan M. McHale, and Anna Soli). That is true for me and my sister. As we’ve grown older, we have learned to resolve our differences and focus on building our relationship as adults. We may be opposites in interests, but our polarity draws us closer together. Though our conversations still resemble those of Laura and Lizzie--“Lizzie with an open heart, Laura in an absent dream” (209-211)-- we now confide in one another with secrets that we would not dare tell anyone

Siblings are annoying. Anybody who isn’t an only child will agree, even if they absolutely love their brothers or sisters and have a close relationship with them. With my brother and two half-sisters, there were plenty of fights and more than enough trouble to go around. Due to our slim age difference, I usually favored him when it came to picking fights. Even as I’m sitting here writing this with him sitting on the couch across from me I just wanna punch him in the face because he ate an entire Domino’s pizza without me even getting one slice. However, the weird thing about siblings is that no matter how infuriating they can be or how much pizza they eat without sharing, at the end of the day they’re still family.

Ever since we were little, my sister and I never got along. I was the blonde haired, blue eyed, goody two shoes, while my sister was the tall, broad-shouldered, aggressive little girl who made sure to always get her way. I remember the first time meeting her. I was three years old with pigtails and bright pink ribbons in my hair. I held my baby sister in my small, delicate arms for the first time. I was eager to go home and play with her. Little did I know, that sixteen years later we would become bitter enemies.

I come from a four-person family. My mom and dad have always been in my life therefore they are the people who raised me. After seeing my parents have a successful marriage, it has influenced me to want the same thing in life and having my first marriage be my last. I have an older sister who is 23. While growing up, me and my sister had a very close relationship. As we grew up, we started to drift apart. I learned a lot from being the youngest child. While being 3 years younger than my sister Taylor, watching her grow up and deal with situations taught me many personal life lessons. Watching her grow up taught me the good and bad things in life and helped me follow the right path. While going through school, I already knew what to expect when it came to the class description and the teacher just by having my sister go through it just a couple years before me. Even though being the younger sister, my whole life is all I know, I couldn’t imagine

My wife is a lovely woman who is surrounded by people who love her, has food to eat, clothes to wear, and a roof over her head, but often spends her time wondering about the things she doesn’t have in life. These things being jewelry, fancy clothes, lots of money, and an overall luxurious life style. I want to give her all these things and give her a chance to go out.
