Are They Siblings?
A lifestyle is how we live our daily life. All the activities we do reflect our way of thinking, developed year by year. Surely how we are brought up by our parents influences our life. But at the same time studies, meetings and experiences can make us different from people and even from our family.
My sister, my brother and I are the best representatives of this “theory”. Our parents have grown up us in the same way but we are different. Especially my brother and my sister…

| She is
Simona, my eldest and only sister. She is still staying with us despite she’s 23
years old. She obtained the degree one year ago. Now she is graduated in Science of
Tourism and Local Communities. She hasn’t found a proper job yet. After many short
work experiences, now she has found a good job. She works for a firm that elaborates documents and data for other companies. It is a “good” employment because firstly it has long-medium term and it’s better in comparison with most of the jobs offered in this period. Secondly it leaves her free time to do her hobbies and support her guitarist boyfriend. In the free time she reads, writes poems, surfs on the web (she holds her own blog) but overall she creates furnishing objects made in papier-mâché. She doesn’t practice any sports, because she hasn’t enough time! However she keeps fit with a diet without meat and fish: she’s vegetarian. She has really changed in the last 5 years: she is more realist, pragmatic and happier. To be really happy she needs: “Initially more money, then money and … money! I haven’t enough savings to move away and build my own life. Not only a new house but maybe I would attend a master course in Tourism or Management”. In her life she has learned to keep her feet on the ground, to content herself but even to improve her condition.

This is my
brother. He is not so bad like he appears. He is 22 years old but everybody who really
knows him says he’s more mature compared with boys of his same age. He works as
skilled worker in a glass manufacture. He is “skilled” because he does
everything his industry asks. After obtaining the certificate as baker and confectioner, he worked in a bakery and afterwards as cook. These employments weren’t well paid and he had to work 6 days a week at uncomfortable hours. So he started working in a firm as a worker, but it’s not what he desires. He would like to become an entrepreneur to make a huge amount of money and, in his opinion, to work less. He wants to increase his savings, so he works a lot, “for the 3/4 of my life”. In the remaining time “I sleep, eat and go to the bathroom”. He has also a girlfriend who has been supporting him since 3 years. So he’s obliged to go out too. He doesn’t play any sports but years ago he went to gym, to boost his muscular mass. In that period he ate only meat. Now it is still his main meal, but he eats some vegetables too. About himself he says: “I’m very handsome, interesting and dumb. Call me if you want a date… so you’ll recharge my mobile credit
