Am I A True Gemini?

I have been doing a lot of self analysis essays for school. It made me wonder what my zodiac sign says about me. I am a Gemini. A twin. They say Gemini's have a lot of contradictory traits. The yin and yang of the zodiac I guess you could say. I found a list of positive and negative traits of a Gemini to see how I stack up. The vague characteristics are in red my thoughts on how it fits me are black. Running point tally in blue.

Positive traits

Adaptable
Open-minded and easy-going that they are, the Gemini are adaptable individuals as the desire to enjoy each moment run deep in them. 
I am definitely adaptable. My brother once told me I have the ability to be whatever I need to be in any situation.  
Yes-1 No-0

Versatile
A wide variety of subjects interests them, and hence, the Gemini will try their hands at many different things. They will not get stuck in a fixed routine. 
Oh I am interested in so many different things that people can't keep up. I'm always changing the focus of my obsessions as well.
Yes-2 No-0

Enthusiastic
The Gemini are one enthusiastic lot! They are always up for doing something new and exciting, and their enthusiasm is often infectious. 
Guilty! I love trying new things. And I'm like the pied piper leading other people along.
Yes-3 No-0

Eloquent
Blessed with excellent communication skills, the Gemini are eloquent people. They can sale anything to almost anyone! 
Ok first of all it is sell not sale. Second ya'all know I can talk. I'll talk to a fence post if I think it is paying attention.
Yes-4 No-0

Witty
The Gemini can easily impress you with their wit and humor, leaving you entertained. Besides, their spontaneity adds to their natural charm. 
Oh you know I'm funny! And spontaneous. Well I'm spontaneous when I have the time to be. 
Yes-5 No-0

Intellectual
Since they are always interested learning about as many subjects as they can, the Gemini make an intellectual lot. These smart and sharp individuals will not shy away from voicing their opinions. 
Honestly do I even need to say anything here?
Yes-6 No-0

And now for the negative traits. As much as I like to pretend that I am perfect I suppose I must admit I have them.

Negative traits

Inconsistent
The Gemini are so sharp and quick that it is difficult for them to stay interested and engaged in the projects they start off. Such inconsistency is their major weakness. 
Oh yes, this is far too true of me. I'm flighty. 
Yes-7 No-0

Superficial
The Gemini-born are often labelled as superficial people because of their inability to delve deep and pay attention to details. 
Hmmmm...I don't know that I would be considered superficial. Although I do have major issues with paying attention to details. I shall give it a half point
Yes-7.5 No-0.5

Indecisive
Whenever they are supposed to decide something, the Gemini are invariably in two minds. Their indecisiveness sometimes costs them lucrative opportunities in life. 
I am very indecisive. I will over think whether I should kick the bucket or not when that time comes. But, once I make a decision I stick with it.
Yes-8.5 No-0.5

Lack of Focus
The Gemini can get bored very easily, which is a direct consequence of lack of focus. Their energies are often scattered. 
I've barely made it through this list without wandering off. 
Yes-9.5 No-0.5

Nervous
The Gemini are energetic but have a tendency to bite off more than they can chew. This leads to nervousness and makes them fickle. 
I AM NOT FICKLE! Sorry that irritated me. I can see how people would see me as nervous excitable. Half point.
Yes-10 No-1

Well I don't think we can argue about it any longer. It is definitive. I am a Gemini. A lovely, fun, passionate Gemini.
