BOR, is it really true?
There has been research about me, how I am a only
child, The crazy thing about all of the research is that most of it is true.
Yah seems a bit far-fetched, research that “knows” me, kind of awkward. The
research is called Birth Order Research (BOR).
One of the traits listed is that I have difficult time
relating to peers. I really do have a rough time connecting to peers, like I am
disconnected from them. If that makes any sense, I don’t feel like I belong. I
do have friends, but not a whole lot of them. It is partially my fault because
I am already thinking oh they are too cool to be a friend. I don’t know why I
do it. I can’t help myself. I probably have two to three good friends.
Another trait that is listed is procrastination. I
know I procrastinate, but I can’t help it. I try over and over again to stop
doing it but I can’t help myself. I
really do need help with it. Like for the A.P. world history assignment over
summer, I procrastinated on it so bad. I didn’t know what to do. I finished it
just in time. I thought I was going to mess it all up.
While I do get along with some people, I talk to
younger or older people. I don’t talk to a lot of people in my grade. That
seems strange, but it’s true. I don’t get why I do that I just like talking to
people that are not my grade. I think that’s pretty strange to me. I can’t
believe that BOR has said all this about being an only child.
After all of the things they listed in the BOR,
almost everything is true about me. That really freaked me out when I noticed
it. I agree with everything they said about me. This has changed my view
because if my traits were all true, then that means that probably all the other
children first, middle and oldest are all true. Now that’s really creepy.
