Yes it is normal, they are indeed two different pointers, but both point to the same structure; that means that they go through the same list, thus the same element collection.
If you want two different lists, you can choose between:
1) make two different type structure and pointers (type chair_1 and chair_2, pointer mychar_1 and mychar_2)
OR
2) use only one type structure and one pointer, and add an additional field - ex. ID - which can be set each time you create a new element. Example (one structure and one pointer):
Personally, I would use the 2nd choice.
