Assignment 22: Megan Meadors

                I don’t know what circumstances in my life has affected me more than being a triplet. I know that puts me in a unique situation, so I guess I’ll try to explain it as best I can.

                Imagine this. For your entire life you have two other people who are the same age as you, have the same classes, the same teachers, and if you like it or not, you’re connected for life. Sounds pretty fun, I guess. Maybe not to you, but I think it’s pretty cool.

                Even better, I’ve gained several skills that some other people don’t have. First of all, I know how to share. That might seem trivial, but I’ve gotten to high school and people DON’T KNOW HOW TO SHARE. This is infuriating because I’ve always had to share with two other people. From playing with toys to watching TV, I had had to share just about everything in my life and I kind of just expect other people to have done the same. Let me just say that if I get to college and have a roommate who doesn’t know how to share things then we’re gonna have issues.

                On that same note, I’ve shared a room for me entire life. That’s going to help me in college because I’m used to sharing my space with another person so that’s not going to be weird for me when I get to college. So hopefully my roommate will have been the same way or at least be okay with sharing the room because otherwise, things aren’t going to end well.

                I like to think I’m a fairly good person to get along with so hopefully I don’t seem like I’m just going to hate anyone I’m rooming with. I just hope that they have these two skills, because I certainly have them and I hope they do too.
