Twins

This year we have a bumper crop of twins in the centre. Some parents have actually asked me why we have so many twins?? I am not too sure why they think I have the answer to every stupid question on earth.

Actually till now I cannot figure out the biological question about twins. Although I have the best Biology teacher in the centre, I keep getting confused by the egg and the sperm. Is it two sperms and one egg or two eggs and one sperm? There are few millions of sperms swimming up the valley and there are two winners, thats what I know.

Ask any twin's parents and they will tell you the most commonly asked questions would be "Who is older?" and " How to tell them apart?" . I think they wish they could tag onto one of them that says "I came out first". Must be sick and tired of the same questions from the time they have given birth to the baby combo. And they always tell you to tell them apart, there is this tiny little mole somewhere in the forehead or chin of the younger or older twin. I have to squint and move so close to examine the mole that I end up drooling on their faces.

But it must really annoying to have another person looking exactly like you. It's like having a mobile mirror with you all the time. Sometimes I look at the mirror and I get scared by my own image. Imagine walking into a room and see yourself lying in bed reading a book. It's kindda freaky isn't it? And I know this particular pair of twins who enjoy dressing alike, maybe it's the mother's idea or clothes are always sold at a discount if you buy a pair of each everytime. The good thing about being twins is that you can always be assured of a job with the magicians. The bad thing is you can get beaten up for something which the other sperm did.

So if you have nothing to do, look at the photos and try and figure out who came out first. Get the right combination and guess correctly, I will appoint you as my official 4D plus Toto number picker.
