When I was 8, I remembered that when I was 5, I asked my parents to get a pet for me. So my 8 year old self wanted something like a dog back then, but my parents told me no. Now I realize my parents didn’t want a dog because of the high maintenance.
Now, fast-foward to 10 years old, when I wanted a parakeet. I wanted a parakeet so it could fly to my hand and chirp lovingly. But I was so mistaken…
To convince my parents to get a parakeet, I had to write innumerable articles to make them half-convinced. When I finally convinced my mom to go to a pet shop with me and buy a parakeet, it didn’t happen. It didn’t happen because an employee told my mom and I that parakeets were just for show. They didn’t really bond with humans, so my mom and I decided to ditch that plan and buy a reptile. I really admired reptiles at a young age, and I still do to this day.
So I went to the reptiles aisle and after talking to the employee about the best reptile for HALF AN HOUR, we decided to go buy a Bearded Dragon. I was supremely elated when we brought the Bearded Dragon home.
And that is the story of how I got my pet after begging for 5 years.
