Did you know turtles can breathe through their butts? Now‚ I know this may sound weird‚ but it is true.

Turtles and Tortoise are different in many ways. Turtles and tortoises are reptiles‚ the only ones to have a shell. Their bodies are protected by a shell on top and underneath.

Sometimes at night‚ when it is so dark the darkness becomes almost smothering‚ I lie awake listening to the cars outside and the endless barking of the dog next door. I think back through my life‚ to try and comfort me into restful sleep. I remember summers from my middle school days. The images yellowy‚ orange‚ warm‚ happy. Endless weeks abroad‚ the sun almost unbearable in its cruel sunburnt heat. A time when swimwear wasn’t a terrifying thought: flabby thighs‚ see-through bikinis were things
