well.. that is true.. to some.. this will b very true.. but in mine.. thr may be little scruff n family-politics issues going around.. backstabbing n gossips n misunderstandings.. but when thrs anything in need of a complete set of helping hands.. they r definitely tightly thr.. which is pretty cool.. hehehe..
