I cant believe i was ever intimidated by...

i cant believe i was ever intimidated by my older brother. Growing up as kids i feared that if i used any of his stuff that he would "beat me up", so i never did. The thing is, i never asked him if i could play with his stuff so i never knew if he would say yes or no. Now looking back on it i cant believe that i was like that. Now my brother and i are very close. We share everything together just fine, and get along very well. he is actually my role model as i am looking forward to following in his footsteps. He is now a mechanical engineer, as i hope to be someday as well.
