Letter to Nathan

Dear Nathan,
You're still 6 right now... and you're being treated like you're your sister's age just because she cries if life's unfair.
boy, you're pretty freaking cool. You're not old enough to really understand video games, cars or music... but I promise you, when you're older, I am here to be your mentor...
Oh, and probably your other boy cousin too... but we'll join forces to make you PERFECT! hehehe...

Anyway, to begin... Music:
You wanna be cool? Here...
MGMT, The Kooks, The Smiths, The Beatles, Beach Boys, Hedley, A Tribe Called Quest, Yellowcard, Eminem, Anberlin, Arctic Monkeys, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, The Ataris, Belle & Sebastian, Counting Crows, Cartel, Coldplay, Jack's Mannequin, Something Corporate, Kings of Convenience, My Friend The Chocolate Cake, The Shins, Scouting for Girls, We Are The Emergency, The Bullet Holes, Sondre Lerche, Jeff Smith, Run-D.M.C., Relient K, Sleighbells, Making April, The Killers, Flyleaf, Band of Horses, The Apples in Stereo, Switchfoot, Three Days Grace, Mumford and Sons, John Mayer, Future of Forestry, Brooke Fraser, The Eels, Between The Trees, Sugar Ray, Beastie Boys... and a few more... come see me later, once you've mastered these.

Now, TV:
Big Bang Theory,
Scrubs,
The Nanny,
Friends,
Seinfeld...

and any more your cousin wants to add.

Cars:
Not an AUDI.
anything but an audi, really... EW!
Motorcycles are cool, as long as they're not Kawasakis...
ummm....

Telling people that you once beat your sister in a game of football, 10-0... isn't cool... BUT! Telling people you beat ANYONE in a game of Foozball is cool...

VIDEO GAMES:
Lotr... WILL ALWAYS BE AN EPIC!!
Kingdom Hearts 1 AND 2
Crazy Taxi,
Croc
Pong
inFamous, and Red Dead Redemption are fun...

umm... I can't think of anything new right now, but i promise i'll tell you lots of things...

If you want a girl to like you, treat her like a gentleman, like every guy could possibly be treating her better... like you've got to make her feel precious and loved and like she's fragile to you... like you think she'll break if you touch her. Like the princess from Princess and the Pea... how she can get a bruise just from laying on a pea that's heaps of layers down the line...

love you hon... Treat your sister well too...
Also, teach her how to be safe and how to beat up other boys.

<3
