When I was about six years old I took a One-a-Day vitamin from my grandmother's medicine cabinet believing that I would grow large muscles and become extremely healthy. The entire day I kept going into the bathroom to look in the mirror to see how much my muscles had grown. I believed this would happen because of the commercial One-a-Day had on TV.
