i seem to be a mix of first child, middle child, youngest child and only child.
but!
when i really tried to describe myself, i ended up in the only child category, bwahahaha! no wonder a lot of people who are not really familiar with my family background think that i'm an only child!!!
really now? the first child description holds true for me, most of the time, that is.
or so i thought. now, having read the article again, i realized that i have some traits that belong to the other classes too.
but that should be normal. otherwise, the concept of unique-ness would just melt away... what do you think?
