My family

I will introduce my family. There are four people in my family, my father, my mother, my younger brother, and me. They live in Iwate prefecture where place north of Japan. So we are living separate now.

My father is 58 years old, and office worker. He works hard for us, so I appreciate him. He will retire his company when he come to 60 years old, because of age-limit. He is a little stubborn and selfish, but recently he becomes to fill up. I think that due to his advancing years...(^^;) My mother is 56 years old, and home maker. She and I have many similalities...for example, looking, voice, and easygoing character. I take after my mother in every way! My younger brother is 17 years old, and high school student. He belong to foot ball club, and plays as a defender. His character is similer to my father. He is a little selfish, so sometimes we have a quarral. But usually we get along well(^^)

When I go back to my home, they welcome my home. Then I feel happy and having nice family.

Your family sounds a nice group of people. They sound like my family somewhat.

There are 4 people in my family as well, however I am the youngest. There is my father who is 54 who just recently got a job and he is going to work until he is at least 65. My mother is currently the breadwinner of my family. She is 54 and vice president of a clothing store. She loves it very much. My older brother who is 21 is currently at Northeastern University in Boston. He is studying criminal justice and pre-med.

I havent seen my family since September, so it will be nice to see them again.

You seem to be close with your family. It's really nice that you can be honest with how you feel about them, that shows sincerity. Is it common for Japanese to be able to express how they feel about their parents?
