Bucuresti de inchiriat

Once, we were in the checkout line at the market when she decided to perform and soon all of the old ladies were gathered around us.  She has this head of brown curls, and I swear it has super powers.  It seems to mesmerize adults because when she starts shaking her backside, the curls bounce all over and the audience all gush over her hair.  Her hair?  Can’t they see and hear what body part she is trying to show off?  They truly don’t understand her art!

I have two other sisters too; collectively I call them the FrouFrou (Frooo-frooo) Crew.  Frou Frou means showy or elaborate dress, and that says it all.  There is the baby, Aria…oooh the baaaabyyy, really?  I don’t get it. Sure she is cute and all but come on, all she inchirieri apartamente bucuresti does is sit there, drool and poop.  What is so exciting about that?  I don't understand why people gravitate toward small children...I think they are annoying. She can’t dance like the three year old, or sing like the almost eight year old…oh yeah, her. Well what can I say about Sofia?  She’s inchirieri apartamente bucuresti alright, no…not really.  We end up playing together most of the time because she is closest to my age, but she always wants me to be a prince in her play or some lowly servant…ok, usually a lowly servant.  I am tired of dress up games and all things pink!!!  It's not fair for a twelve year old boy to be surrounded by so much pink!  Frankly, I don’t think it’s healthy for my psyche.

My entire life is overtaken by boas and singing.  It just isn’t right.  Dad and I are outnumbered and arguing with the FrouFrou crew is exhausting and pointless.  Escape into my imagination is my only option, that or forcing my parents to adopt a boy.  Okay, escape it is. I am surrounded by estrogen, even the inchirieri apartamente bucuresti neighborhood kids are girls.  I avoid most of them by keeping my head down and not making eye contact as I walk to school.  There is only one that is sort of OK, her name is Skye.

Apartamente Inchiriate

She doesn’t act all froufrou-ish; she is more of a jock.  Skye is on the swim team at school and is the best swimmer they have.  She even beat all of the high school boys, but never brags about it.  The back of her shoulder has this really cool birthmark inchirieri apartamente bucuresti that for some reason I can only see when she’s in the water (unless it is just because she is in a swimming suit and I can see her skin).  It's shaped kind of like a snake with wings. Skye and I have English class together and our lockers are side by side, so we usually end up walking together and talking.  There’s something about her that puts me at ease.  I don't have to inchirieri apartamente bucuresti worry about how to act and our friendship is easy; she gets me.  Most times we don't even say anything we just hang out.  We walk on the beach a lot, too; she says the waves calm her.  Being with her is a welcome respite from the all-things-pink madness of my life at home.

Ever since the baby was born, I realized there would be no more chances for a brother to play with.  I can’t believe that I am destined to be surrounded by glitter and fluffy things.  Ugh.  I am finding it increasingly necessary to escape into my imagination to block out all things girly.  I imagine inchirieri apartamente bucuresti dangerous adventures with pirates, or traveling all over the world on exhibitions looking for something others haven't discovered yet, anything other than pink.
