I have a twin sister, for real!

So I was having a conversation with my mom the other day. I was tellin her that most people are surprised when I tell them that i have a twin sister. I couldn't understand why this was. Many people that I went to school with didn't realize that my sister and me were twins. Some people would even say that they didn't know I had a sibling. It surprised me cause we always assumed everyone knew we were twins and that she existed. (especially the people we grew up with and went to school with) When I say school I am referring to elementary, middle and high school. Well my mother went on to say that my sister and myself never went out of our way to let people know that we were twins. She says we never really made much of a big deal about it. It made me think back to when we were growing up. My sister and I never really went around broadcasting that we were twins now that I think about it. I think we just didn't really tend to think much of it. People tend to be really infatuated with twins. You know when people find out they ask you all kinds of questions. Here are just a couple of the ones that I get (Are you two identical? A boy and a girl can't be identical to those who don't know...Can you tell when the other one is in trouble? I have to say that sometimes we do get this feelin when something is up.) Well everyone who reads this I just want to let you know that I have a twin sister. Yes we were born on the same day and if you didn't know this feel free to ask me about her. It's nice havin a twin. I have to admit it was tough when we were at the ages of 11-13. It seemed like we would fight everyday, but it was nice growing up together. The best thing was when we were younger and it would rain (which means you had to play inside) we would still have someone to play with. We always had each other. Well I don't wanna make this to deep so I am America's nightmare...
