I am always afraid to forget my toothbrush when I go traveling. Sometimes, when I sleep, I see it in my dream, and remember that I must pack it. So I wake up, get out of bed and run to the bathroom for my toothbrush. Then I pack it in my bag, and go back to sleep. But in the morning I remember that I must brush my teeth. So I go to the bag and open it and begin to look for the toothbrush. As a rule, I have to take all the things out of the bag before I find it. At last I get it out of the bag and use it, and then I forget to put it back. So at the last moment I have to run upstairs to the bathroom for my toothbrush, and finally I carry it to the railway station in my hand. (Jerome)
