Who am I?
You have two hemispheres in your brain- a left side and a right side. The left side controls the right side of your body and the right side controls the left half. It's a fact. Therefore, left-handers are the only people in their right minds." -Bill Lee
My brain
Although I use both the left and right side of my brain depending on the thought process necessary, I am most comfortable while using the left side of my brain. That means that I like more structure, control, clarity, focus, direction, responsibility, organization, planning, mathematical and analytical skills, listening skills, rational and logical thinking.
