Dear Big Sister:
You only call me when you want something. That's why I don't answer my phone or return your calls- your intent is always the same. I'd love nothing more than to give you what you want. But I can't, cuz I'm a big girl now. When I was in high school, and you were using, homeless and living in the woods, I wouldn't let the family turn you away. Not because I was sure you'd get clean, but because I loved you. You think I never knew. I did, I just didn't care. I was your #1 advocate, and not out of guilt, like with mom. Now your life is much better, but we're not really closer. You hung up on me the other day, just because I wouldn't obey a last minute request. I'll be the cold, selfish b*tch you call me behind my back, if it makes you feel better. It's time to grow up; I don't live to please you. Even still, I just wish we could share a close bond like when we were kids.

Dear Neighbors:
I hate you with your stupid Christmas lights and seasonal home decorations. Do you ever rest? Do you really need to paint the driveway each season? Does your lawn need to be so impeccably green and landscaped? You're missing out- weeds attract cute squirrels and they love my yard. You could also ease up on the family reunions; it reminds me how much my family sux. Not your problem, I realize, but it would help. You're the typical collectivist, block-my-driveway-with-your-shiny-cars, Puerto Rican family. And so what I ran into your daughter-in-law's car; it shouldn't have been parked 2 inches from my property. On a lighter note, after 6 years living across from each other, I haven't introduced myself. I'm not a hermit, I just don't wanna meet all 20 members of your immediate family.
P.S. I hope the last section doesn't offend anyone. I'm describing a personality and cultural conflict, not an ethnic one.
