Recently, some people reminded me that I haven’t made a video with my brother in a long time. Upon inspection, I confirmed that we haven’t shot one in over a year (here’s the last one)! Whoa, time sure went by fast.
Since the last video, I had moved away which is why I haven’t had much opportunities to do one with him. I happened to be home this weekend, so we decided to create one just for fun. The premise of the video is to show how my brother really interacts with me whenever I’m just chilling at home. I set up the video camera on the side and told him to just come in behaving the way he normally does (which is, to say, the annoying little brother role he perfected oh so well). We pretty much improvised the entire time, so all of the reactions were real. Check it out:
Here’s a bonus clip of a lovely, tender moment between my brother and my mom. Why did I ever leave home, right?
P.S. July is still keeping me busy! I will hopefully be able to update regularly after this month. BTW, if you happen to be in the Northern VA area this weekend, feel free to check out this big Asian Festival I’ll be at working. Come say hello!
your brother needs to do your hair. still kind of cute….
Damn, your brother is intense. Freakin’ airzooka…
Hahahaha that is EXACTLY how my brother and I interact! He taught me a rhyme the other day from a youtube vid that 1:30 reminds me of: “Interior, crocodile, alligator; I drive a Chevrolet, movie the-ater.”
CLAZY CHAN CLAN
LMAO! “bay jak chow mut lay mun” HAHAHAH. oh, i love your mom.
btw, she’s so young! how old is she?!
home is where the heart is.
I’m impressed at how well he knows the friday song.
screaming about Jimmy Newtron. haha… Did he ever learn his history or his geography….or his states?
pimpin
Oh, that’s great, Alex. I rarely sit here laughing out loud when watching videos people post, but in this case your brother’s laugh is so… damn… funny.
aw, your brother looks so different from my bday shoutout vid! he’s growing up so fast……. i think he’s gonna be better looking than you alex……. lolol just kidding… or am i…….
HAHAHA, looks like your brother and I would be best friends. And did you just call him bebe?!
hahaha this was great
Hahahhahahha. Your brother is hilarious. I LOL’ed when he had played old school Britney on his phone.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAH omg, you guys are so adorable lmfao. He’s hilarious!
I read all that and then you narrate the exact same thing in your vlog! *shakes fist* Anyway, I love how your mom punched your brother in the end ahahaha.
@Lynn1013 - I know what you’re talking about! My friend used to play that allll the time.
How did you come out ugly? You’re a smart kid, but it comes with being asian. Look, you are tons more successful than me, don’t cry.
@theHealthRabbit - Psh, I can mimic that hair style if I wanted to! I’ll let him have that for now.
@fLiPgUy31O - Even though he’s older, he’s still as hammy as ever.
@Lynn1013 - Haha, you do know what song he was singing right?
@Roadlesstaken - I quiz mine quite often…but one of them is a super genius so he quizzes us with “What if” questions constantly. lol
Yay… a video of the 2 of you. I can’t believe all you have to do is just turn the camera on and he just does his stuff. You mean that what he does all the time when you’re home? hahaha…. Can I borrow your mom? It can get a bit scary in my hood at night and I need a bodyguard. (gosh – she looks so young).
hahahahaha loved it!!!
Your brother is adorable, but not as adorable as you are! Okay, I have to admit…when he laughed, he made me laugh! Younger brothers and sisters are fun! HUGS to both of you!
@ElusiveWords - Yes, although it looks like my brother is exaggerating that’s really how he acts haha. I suppose for you I can let you borrow her.
Lmao! This is almost exactly how my brother acts when I’m home… You’re not alone =)
so entertaining!!!
@AdamsWomanFell - That laugh was passed on to him from my dad. I have a somewhat similar laugh too!
@oOo_itsJuJu - He shoots you with an airzooka too?!
@windblown85 - I told him all he has to do was act like himself and the video will be easy to make haha
Awhhh, your mum is too cute, haha. I really like her hair, lol.
your mom is cute. and your bro…wow he looks sooo different now lol
I don’t envy your mom. Your brother is very … errr, well, he is very much himself.
Hahha I speak Cantonese, too haha your brother is a lot like my younger sister!
I didn’t know your brother is Son Gokou! :p
Alex’s mum, has got it goin on. She’s all I want and I’ve waited for so long! Alex can’t you see? You’re just not the one for me. I know it might be wrong…but I’m in love with Alex’s mom. ;D
LOL! your brother is soooooo funny! isn’t it great to be home in weekends? i am missing home already. =)
I act like your brother at home. lol Sweet family you’ve got there! Do you speak Canto at home?
youre lil bro grew up! he looks more manly than the precious videos that u posted of him lol
I like the way your little bro laughs, hahaha. Btw, your mom looks young…
@ArmyWife4Life2007 - She just dyed it that color recently. Normally it’s all black. I guess being a hair stylist makes one experiment
FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY.. !! You’re all buggin’ <3 <3
He sings that song better than Rebecca Black does!
Oh I laughed out loud so hard! So many favorite bits, I can’t pick one. Lol, and his HAIR. What is that, K-pop hair? He rocks it though. I love that he came back and shot you with…whatever the heck that was…
You’ll be a great dad one day, Alex. You’ve got “Go away” down to an art! hahaha ~V
@Roadlesstaken - Haha, I went to school for Cosmetology, so I can definitely verify that we love to experiment
haha your little brother is adorable! Such a dork. I like his singing, hahah! I have two lil ones and they are twins so that means double the trouble!
*PUNCH bahahahahhaa
@Roadlesstaken - I see. It’s good that you practice it as a lot of people experience language attrition. =)
Hahaha love the family dynamics :]]]
My fave part was the britney part he’s funny haha & he looks more like you now .. yes that’s a bad thing LOL JK & aw your mom is pretty
HAHA i hope you’ll have time to make more videos w/ your brother this summer. he is so random!!!! maybe you can repel him w/ stinky socks. how much younger than you is your little brother?
hmm… your brother makes life… interesting? i think your mom is pretty.
@Roadlesstaken - oh i just saw the little blue pig video! haha that one’s cute and creative xD and all these comments were entertaining to read, esp. pika’s
This reminds me of my family except I would play the part of your brother and my sibling shouting at me. lol. Looks like you have a great family and love the way you interact.
omg…your brother’s laugh made me LOL. holy crap….
Your brother is hot btw. Sorry, that’s so awkward.
@Roadlesstaken - Haha. I know, right? He was like, what? 3 when she first debuted? LOL.
Your mom is sooo cute :] And your brother is funny lol. “This is why we can’t have nice things.” LOLL.
I like these posts with the Chan family :]
@Roadlesstaken - Friday Song, lol. It took a minute for that to click, I’m not as familiar with the lyrics as your brother, haha.
LOLL your brother is a character! Your mom looks so young too!
@Roadlesstaken - Haha, he’s shot me with a sling shot before. I think I prefer what your bro shot you with =)
吊带
haha his laugh is hilarious
lmfao. dude…. ur bro is hilarious
@miss_dizzao - Prepare for trouble! Make it double!
@CareyGLY - It’s crazy! Think he can still get connections to be on the Disney Channel?
I love the videos! Your brother reminds me of my Lil sister and brother, they are always pestering us, but you gotta love them . My Lil brother is always putting my Mom in a headlock, and just likes yours, she play fights him, but usually my lil sister comes in and jumps on his back so it turns into two against one, lol.
I suppose it’s time for my catch phrase. I jump sites like jack the ripper jumps whores. Unfortunately, deleting my favorite 3 was an impulsive decision as usual, I won’t get them back but that is that. I am also ready to answer your previous question. The hardest thing I’ve had to do is yet to come but is on it’s way. I will have to watch someone I love, the first person I love die before my very eyes, and I cannot save them. About three minutes ago, I realized that I am in this alone. Things go wrong, and they usually do.. but the moment you give up is when you really are a sad sorry son of a bitch, because when you lose your fire you truly have nothing. I’m here, because I am here for a reason.
lolllllll you guys are funnie
His laugh oh my god. Had me in tears
Also, your “And this is why we cannot have nice things” was perfect
Your brother is funny and he made me laugh throughout the whole entire video! =) You two should come up with more videos.
@suefa_lee - We may be doing 5 second films for our next one. Stay tuned!
i love this post
touches zee hart also… i think i MIGHT be going or half an hour or something to that asian festival con madre, but i still can’t help out =gotta talk to her about that! maybe if you have time i’ll stop by and annoy you
@swtaznxtc90 - Yeah, too late to help out now haha. You should definitely at least stop by for a little bit, especially since it’s so near by! What day/time you think you’ll come?
Haha it makes me wish I wasn’t an only child after seeing that vid. I need a little brother to boss around sometimes.
It was cool actually seeing you IRL at the Asian Festival. You did look like you were all tennis’d out a bit.
@xXDC_luyouXx – I was fried! Not to mention I was sick too. Somehow, I survived being outside all weekend. Hopefully next time we meet I won’t be as messed up haha

@christao408 - It sure is infectious, I’ll give him that credit
@eatandrant - Yup, it’s a nickname that have stuck all these years. I will probably still call him that years from now.
@BranmacFeabhail - Thanks!
@Xbeautifully_broken_downX - I can’t believe he has that clip saved to his phone. I can’t believe he’s old enough to know about it!

@pika_whoosh - That’s both funny…and disturbing Whoosh haha
@I_love_Burma - I do miss it, especially recently since I haven’t be able to visit as often. Summer is a busy season for me!
@SillyHelena - Try to. My brother and I usually talk in English, but I talk to my grandma in all Canto. My parents is mixed, going back and forth.
@rxglasshalffull - I sure hope he does instead of more babyish!
@Keeko1 - Asian genes, what can I say?
