When I was about 10 I was convinced I was a Ghostbuster. I was so eager to prove it that one day I went to school dressed in an old sweatsuit that I had converted into a "Ghostbuster suit". I had a laser made of paper towel rolls and a backpack which I completely ruined by drawing on the Ghostbusters logo in pemanent marker. I even had a ghost trap made of a kleenex box. When nobody believed me I got angry and proceeded to "zap" them all with my "gun". My teacher sent me home and my mom was not pleased. Especially about the backpack.
