This may be boring for most but I thought I would give it a try. It has been said by many that your life is determined by your birth order. Being the oldest has its own forms of pressure. I have spent most of my life being told 'now set a good example because your sisters are watching you.' Then being named after a Mickey Mouse mousketeer. I never saw the show until there were clips shown years later during biographies on the members. This adds the mental pressure to be like 'Annette-the good one.' Needless to say, I did not go the rebel child direction which some would have chosen. Instead, I tried to keep the clean image. My sisters all tried their rebel times and talked about how much FUN it was. When everyone FINALLY became adults I had my relapse into the childhood I really didn't experience. Years later I am STILL a teenager at heart. I continue with my 'adult responsibilities' but still try to find the time to enjoy myself with my friends.
I do have very strong opinions, thanks to a father and favorite uncles and cousins, who were not shy about sharing their views. I formed my own views and believe strongly in them. In later blogs I will try to share some of them with all of you. Hope you will not be too bored. Enjoy the ride.
