When i was a little girl i was very tall for my age and i used to be very proud of it and always stod up straight then a another little girl said it was better to be small and i didn't question this and deceided i had to be small so everyday afetr school i thought that i should try and curl myself into a ball so i could be small because i thought all my standing up straight had made me tall so for half an hour i made my self into a little ball and then i would empty out a little cupboard and see if I could fit in if I could i would say that my work will be done needless to say i never did.
