A Place Where Twins Get to be Twins



So cute. I wish the whole episode was online. I think that Dr. Nancy Segal is awesome. Reading her book Entwined Lives made me want to be a psychologist and study twins. When I read this book my sister and I were going through a period where it became obvious for the first time that everything was not the same for us and that there were areas that one of us was better at then the other. My sister was the more athletic of the two of us, and that was hard for me. She won awards and got moved up on teams, while I felt I was left behind. In my attempt to find answers I got Entwined Lives. I loved it. Now I don't want to be a psychologist, after a year of studying it in college, but I think that I will do something that involves twins eventually. 



This makes me so sad. I can't imagine losing my sister. What do you do when you lose your other half? On another note, I love when he says that "twins get to be twins" about the Twins Days Festival. I think there is so much truth in that statement. I've never been to the festival but I think it would be so nice to just be able to be who I am, and not try to be like everyone else, because I would already be like everyone else.
