Hi
My identical twin sister and me are 14 and we will be going to high school in August. Yesterday we decided to go shopping for a shirt for the state science fair that we won and ended up buying 3 outfits each. And we ALWAYS dress alike. Well guess what? We got totally different outfits!!!!!!!!!!! Im so happy. Not that we never didnt like dressing alike but I just got tired of everybody asking why do u dress the same and stuff like that. I get my feelings hurt really easy and Bethany could care less so i guess the reason I started dressing different is so people would stop nagging us about dressing alike. Oh and theres one more thing. Today we are getting our hair cut different!!!!!!!!!!! Our hair is short and Bethany wants to get it cut because to her its gotten too long but im going to tell the lady give me a style to grw my hair out so that when I become a nurse I can put my hair back into a ponytail.

I'm just impressed that at 14, you already know what you want to be in life. That's great! It's also great that you are finding your own identity away from your sister. That way the two of you can learn from each other instead of competeing through out life.
I didn't know I wanted to be a nurse until I was 26 years old. I hope you stick with us for a long time so you can get some encouragement while you prepare for nursing school. Be sure to make good grades so you can get a scholorship to pay for college, that will be one less worry to you and your parents. God has definitly chosen you to be an angel as all nurses are.

Yes, congrats on winning the science fair. It's you're lot in life when you're a twin I guess that you attrack attention. I work with identical twins, they are very close and are both nurses and are always attracking attention. I guess you just have to keep a sense of humor about it. I think though as you enter adulthood, you'll find your own separate identity and dress differently.

I'm sure you and your sister will always feel close, even though you enjoy individuality.
