When I was in middle school, one kid from another class brought a tiny pet snake to school. It was maybe a little over a foot, quite cute really. I had never liked snakes before, but as several of other kids went ahead to touch it, me too... followed the crowd lol. I even hold it in my hand for a while. It was so soft! haha ! I really thought it was cute at that moment, because it was so small and soft while in my hand.
