My Nichole

My little brother, Nicholas, I call him "Nichole" or "Nicola" (Like the Ricola commercial). Nick is Numela Valu (That is Samoan for Number 8). Man this kid used to be so annoying when we were little. He was such a NERD, we thought for sure he was a fafa. But then again, all of my brother's went through their femmy phase.

I can talk to Nick about anything, and he knows he can, and does, talk to me about anything. We are 3 years apart but sometimes it feels like I'm 10 years older than him =)

I remember one time, me and Nick smoked banana leaves on the roof of my dad's house. That was so dumb! LOL And I Think he even confessed this to my dad, because he felt "guilty"---whatever! SELLOUT! haha

Nick was quite the football star, just like the older boys (minus Riki). He looooooooves his football. Nicholas can speak Samoan, which is AWESOME. I so wish I could, but I don't think I'm any less Samoan, because I can't. Nick was a very smart kid. He rocked it out in Geography, something I still don't get.

Nick is a good saver!! My dad would give me $3/week as an allowance, and Nick would get $1/week. Dad said we had to pay tithing every week. Let's do da math people's...10% of $3=.30 cents. Believe it or not, I could NEVER save that .30 cents. I always had to borrow from Nick. LOL Usually he was a punk brat about it, but sometimes he let me "borrow" the .30 cents.

Nick's been through some "bad" times, as we all have. I'm proud of him regardless, and I love him regardless. I wish we all lived closer to each other, but then we'd probably not get along as much!

I love you Nichole,
Rina
