when i was about six i heard my dad reading a story from the newspaper to my mom.the story was about a man who got bit in the but by a snake while using a port-a-potty.this terified me so i came up with a plan.i would ad garlic to the toilet water to keep the snakes away from my butt (i was very confused with superstitions...VAMPIRES are killed by garlic) later that day i decided to try out my plan. i stole some garlic and put it in the toilet. and then my mom walked in. she started yelling at me and told me that couldn't happen in the city. but i thought the newspaper was like the modern day bible so i was still afraid to go to the bathroom. i rushed in the bathroom until about fith grade. i still rush sometimes and im in eigth grade!
