- Finally, i almost completed the work which was given to me. Cannot say completed, coz 1% is still remaining and is completely out of my duty/right/ability to do that 1%... but if that tiny part goes wrong (which i would not be able to help), the whole 99% would be gone!

Younger brothers are nothing but pain in the neck.. he started this fight over the TV remote (he wanted to watch stupid IPL AND some premier league), then passed on to who will fill the bottles in the fridge (which he finishes off), then for scattering clothes on MY bed (this is so irritating!) to finally giving money for ice-cream(i don't understand how can he expect me to give money even after such fights)!!! and unfortunately, he's so huge, i just cannot exihibit my physical strengths(??) in front of him.. my right arm is still aching.. :(
