Twins in the Family
I'm a twin. When I meet people and say «This is my twin brother, Nick,» they are usually very impressed. Nick is thirty seconds older than I am. I always remember this and you can often hear such things in my family as, «No, Patrick, I get the front seat, I'm older.» Now, imagine someone of your age, who’s always with you and has the same friends. In fact, he is my best friend in the world, but I can’t say we don’t fight. I don’t have a room of my own. I share it with my brother, but we share all the other things, too. We share toys, a computer and PSP games. We wear clothes of the same colour and we have got common friends. But we are very different in character and our interests are different, too. I am interested in filmmaking while my brother likes to collect models of cars. My favourite singer is Paul McCartney but my brother is a fan of Michael Jackson. I enjoy reading adventure books while my brother likes detective stories. If you ask about the difference in character I can say that my brother is practical, caring, kind and easy-going. My brother thinks I am creative, sociable and easy-going too. If you think that having a twin brother can help much at school you are mistaken because the teachers know very well about all the «twin-tricks». And my brother and I study as hard as we can. I am good at Maths, Geography and History and my brother is good at English, French and Literature. So, we help each other a lot. In fact, we never forget we are twins and care much about each other. My twin brother will always give me good advice because he knows me better than anybody else in this world.
