I was 17 years old, it was 5:00 pm and the bus just dropped me off. I had an extremely long day at school. I was alone at my house, and went to go stretch out on my bed. I remember just tossing myself on the bed and I faced the wall. I closed my eyes for a quick second. My friend used to go visit me periodically, and would always let herself in. I felt someone sit on the corner of my bed; I assumed it was my friend. I said, "...you can't scare me." When I turned to look, there was a girl that looked identical to me, she had long black hair, pale skin, wearing a white shirt, jeans and she looked at me with her wicked eyes, devilish grin and was twirling a knife slowly in her hand. I suddenly turned towards the wall frightened and covered my face! When I turned to look again, the girl no longer sat on my bed. I never experienced any paranormal activities living in this house, but we moved from that place approximately a year or two after that, I told my friend about that one on one experience. I later fooled myself to believe that it was just a figment of my imagination, I have not seen her again since that day.
During 2001, Mom and I later moved into this small house, which was located at the end of an alley. One afternoon, my Tia (Aunt) went by my job. By her glares and attitude, I can tell she was a bit agitated with me. I asked her what was wrong. She told me with high tone, "Why didn't you open the door, when I went by your house?" I asked her, "When"? She said, "At 9:00, I saw you looking out the window". I told her, "Tia, I've been working since 7:00, I have not been home since". I can tell by the look on her face, that she did not believe me. So I got my supervisor out of his office, and asked him in front of her, "...what time did I come in this morning?" He said, "You came in at 7:00". My Tia said, "Mija (my daughter), there was this girl in your kitchen window, with straight long black hair, just like you. I swear, I thought it was you." I can tell by her expression that she was surprised to know that it was not I in the house staring back at her.
That same summer, my middle sister came to visit from out of town. My mom went to my Tia's house to take care of my grandparents down the street. My mom told my sister that I should be arriving at 11pm from work and that I usually come in through the back door. My sister told me her husband was lying down in my bedroom after a long road trip; she was accommodating herself in my bedroom, as she heard the back door open and shut, she figured it was me. She stood up, and said, "... Are you here?" She heard no answer. She walked into the living room and saw this girl walk into the kitchen, towards my mom's bedroom. My sister called my name several times, but no answer, then said, "...quit trying to scare me, I already saw you" and followed the girl into my mom's bedroom. My sister looked in the bedroom and didn't see a thing, then walked into the bathroom. Nobody was in there either. She came to the conclusion that they were the only people in the house. She was terrified, and woke her husband up.
I was so anxious to get home; I entered through the back door as usual. They both looked at me and gave me this strange stare. I jokingly said, "What? It looks like you just saw a ghost". She told me about her experience; I then asked her what the girl looked like, and she told me, "Like you".
During September 2012, I find myself far away from a place called, "Home". I figured these "childish experiences" were doomed and my so called "twin" no longer followed me. I find myself with roommates for the time being and one morning my roommate told me, "I had the weirdest experience. I felt someone sit on my bed, I figured it was you. I asked you, "...Que tenes" Y nadie contesto. (What's wrong? And nobody answered) I got scared, this girl lay next to me, and she was a saddened soul. I was running my fingers through her dark, black hair, calming her down. I could feel her lying next to me"
I told her about my previous experience with my "twin" and she told me, "Tell your ghosts to stop following me." Hopefully she does.

Well fast forward to last night or should I say this morning. My daughter came to my room and said, "Mom, I just seen a ghost". I turned and told her, do you want me to sleep in your room? She said, yeah. She is 14 and a bit melodramatic. I grabbed my phone and blanket and fell back asleep in her room. No questions asked.
This morning, I told her that her ghost was probably a shadow that formed when a car passed by. She said, "no, it wasn't a shadow mom. She looked like a person. She had your skin tone and had long black hair. She was wearing a pink dress. She was not walking, but floating from the restroom to River's (dog's) room. She looked a lot like you".
I texted my sister this morning about it. She come over right after work to explain to my daughter that she had seen her too.
