Triplets are incredibly rare, so having a set at MHS is also quite uncommon. Almost everyone recognizes the Leung brothers because of their identical appearance.
Aside from their shared looks, being a part of a triplet does not mean they are the same, senior Cameron Leung said.
“I have lived with my brothers my entire life, so obviously I know which one is which,” Cameron Leung said. “People may confuse us, but I would say, there might be some slight details that are different between us,” he said.
Being triplets may seem like a special thing, but it’s not that special, senior Aaron Leung said.
“I don’t think anyone would treat us differently unless maybe they mistook me for my brothers doing something else,” Aaron Leung said. “I don’t think I would have received any different treatment from other people.”
Identifying triplets is usually hard, but if you are around us for long enough, you can see that our personalities are really different, senior Brandon Leung said.
“Cameron is more energetic; Aaron, is more reserved, generally, more of an observer than to directly interfere with something,” Brandon Leung said. “I am kind of like a median between those two.”
“We all grew up with each other, so we know what the others think, so we all end up liking the same thing, like Dungeons and Dragons,” Cameron Leung said.
Recognizing the brothers is about personal connection and how well you know us, Cameron Leung said.
“It sort of depends on the perspective of, how much do you know us personally,” Cameron Leung said. “On a surface level, we all seem essentially the same. We all agree on the same thing, kind of, and have very similar mannerisms. But if you got to know us more closely as an individual, you’re still going to realize that we each have our own little quirks.”
Similarly, our home life isn’t too unique, Aaron Leung said.
“I think it’s about the same as other people who have multiple siblings,” Aaron Leung said. “I don’t think us being very similar changes anything.”
Because the family is so large, privacy may seem like an issue when living with 3 other siblings, 2 triplets and 1 older brother, Cameron Leung said.
“I usually prefer to just spend my time with my siblings when I do something,” Cameron Leung said. “They’re understanding. They’ll give me alone time if I ask for that. Having multiple siblings to hang out with means that I essentially rarely get lonely,” he adds.
Having lived their entire lives as triplets, It would be strange to be an only child, Brandon Leung said.
“As a single child, I might probably be a bit more lonely, obviously, but I would assume I’d turn into a more quiet and reserved dude,” Brandon Leung said.
Because of the rarity of triplets, some people may think of them as more unique than the regular family. However, if you really get to know them you would realize they aren’t that different from everyone else, Brandon Leung said.
“I’m part of the group, just one of the three,” Brandon Leung said.
