Dear
Little Sister,
Have you ever seen
this photo that you sat on the gray sofa when you were pretty little? Actually,
it was taken when you were three years old. You were so adorable in that photo.
When Mom was going to take a picture of you, you were shy but you still
remembered the victory gesture.
You are almost as 165
cm tall as I now and it is not the height that we will call "little and
cute", right? However, you are still a cute sister to me. You have a sweet
smile when you are in a good mood. You have lovely voice especially when you
talk to me on the phone. Nevertheless, you don’t have round eyes which I think
are cute. Instead, you have big eyes with single eyelids. As you look at me,
somehow, they show seriousness and firmness. Your eyes reflect your
personalities. You are earnest as well as determined to do the things you
believe are right.
There is a clear
difference between the present of you and the little of you in that picture.
You are 18 years old now. The challenge waiting for you ahead is The College
Entrance Examination. Your face shows some fatigue. I can imagine how late you
stay up and how lonely you study without me by your side in our double room
because I study in Soochow University so I moved to Taipei. The midnight has
passed but the desk lamp is still bright. You sit at the desk with your
textbook open. You play music since you say music can make you concentrate on
studying.
I always encourage you
to study earnestly so that you can get in the good university you want and I know
you never forget my words. Also, there is one more thing that I’d like to
remind you. No matter what difficulty you face, look on the bright side and
smile as you smiled in that photo.
Love,
Eileen
