Fun fact about me - I have a twin brother! In honor of National Twin Day which occurs during the first weekend in August each year, I decided to answer some of the most frequently asked questions my brother and I have received about being a twin.

1. Can you feel when the other is hurt?

Too bad that this is just a myth. We swear we've had moments when we're apart where we feel like something is wrong with the other twin and had been right, though.

2. Who is the oldest?

Does this matter? (Although when I want to use the fact that I was born three minutes before my brother against him, then yes, it does.) We've also been asked which of us is smarter... we'll let you decide.

3. Can you read each other's minds?

We like to think so. This question makes us feel like superheroes, which we totally are.

4. Are you identical?

This one just makes us laugh.

5. Do you look alike?

We are twins, remember? Our blue eyes and matching hair color don't get overlooked.

6. Do you get along?

All siblings fight, and my twin is no exception. (We also have two younger sisters who join in.)

7. Are you close?

It's hard to be together for almost twenty years and not be. The longest we were ever apart was when the two of us left for college last year. It was hard at first but I soon realized he was just a phone call or short drive away. College definitely helped us gain more independence as well, but nothing can break that twin bond.

8. What's it like being a twin? Do you like it?

This question is tough to answer. Being a twin really is a lot of fun. Having someone by your side from the start is something that not many people get to experience. It's a pretty special thing to be and I wouldn't change it!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
