Mice Will Impersonate You My mother chides me about cutting my nails at night. The sound of clippering isn't so much of an ear candy, but what's the deal? If I don't cut them when it comes to my mind, I keep forgetting. But then, I just remember at wrong times like when in the subway train or at work. And I can't bear to see my nails undone. So, this evening I was cutting my nails before taking a bath and she went there again. In Korea, superstition has it that if you cut your nails at night, a mouse hears, comes to eat the pieces. Then, the mouth can impersonate you to do things harmful to you. I remember reading this in a cartoon when I was little. At the time, it was scary to imagine for a little girl, but I now want to be free of this myth.
