When I was younger, I heard about serial killers on the news. I used to think that serial killers were actually 'cereal killers' and only killed people who ate cereal. And because I was a kid and I ate cereal, like many kids, I used to believe that they would 'get me'. I lived with fear everytime I ate breakfast until I was about 11 when my mom finally cleared things up!
