Marshmallow

Since writing my blog about my obsession with Facebook, I started to think about the other things that, not only myself, but those around me are obsessed with. I started with my sister. My sister is a smart young thing (16 years old) and she's a bit of an enigma to me. We are different in so many ways.. We really don't look that much alike. She got more of my mother's features while I was blesssed with the nappy hair and the big lips of my father. She's smart, funny, fun to be around.. But, I couldn't really pinpoint what she really, really loved. She isn't obsessed with Twilight or the Jonas Brothers.. DOn't get me wrong, we have long talks about whether Robert Pattinson is really that pretty or if it is just some creation of media hype (we agree he is, indeed GORGEOUS), and many a time we have drove my mother crazy blasting the Jonai from one of our rooms and singing like lunatics. She loves to read, but isn't obsessed with H.P. or any certiain series. She does really like these weird mystery books were often a killing game is involved or books with a mythological creature involved in some love scheme (I just read a book of hers called Aphrodite's Kiss.. about superheroes). She is not obsessed with Myspace (and she does not have a facebook, I asked and she laughed in my face). She really likes music, she used to play the viola. But nothing that was soo consuming.. nothing that compared to HSN for my mom, or facebook for me. I couldn't really think of anything definitive. Then, I remembered a funny incident where she sat there and ate a whole bag of jumbo marshmallows. A HUGE bag. She killed them in a matter of a television show! I was amazed. My sister loves marshmallows. Little ones, the multicolored ones, the jumbo ones... Better yet Peeps (basically marshmallows dipped in flavored colored sugar). She has the same reaction my mom does for HSN.. She gets shaky, very excited and a little obnoxious, impossible to be around. So my mother has HSN, I have facebook and my sister has fallen to the little devil the marshmallow.
