When I was little I saw the Child's Play movies with Chucky and the Nightmare on Elm Street movies with Freddy Krueger. I had a girl talking doll that was about the size of Chucky too. I always thought that Chucky, Freddy, and my girl doll were out to get me and would hide under my bed or come when I was asleep. I would sometimes run and jump to get in bed. I also believed that my Cabbage Patch Kids dolls protected me. I had 3 of them so I would lie with 2 on one side of me and one on the other when I was going to sleep.

Until I was aobut eight I used to belive each month started with just the name. For example, Janauary's first day was simply called "January and was followed by January 1st. "February" would be the first day of the month followed by February 1st.

When i was 5 i thought that i was the only one in the world with my name, so i was outraged when i started preschool and some one else had the same name as me.

I used to believe that when you weren't wearing shoes you were "bearfoot" as opposed to barefoot. It made perfect sense to me because bears didn't wear shoes.

When I said "shut-down" mode the toy would "power down" , meaning they couldn't feel anything when me and my sister were done playing.We created this because we don't have a shelf and put our toys in a big wooden box thing and the toys would get crowded.

When I was little, one of my friends had a toy fire truck that had a big red button that said "fire" on it. My friend told me that pressing it would make the truck light on fire, so i never played with it ever again.

When I was 5 after I saw ToyStory I thought that my toys would come to life when I left the room or went to bed ect. And If I treated them bad they would come after me in the middle of the night. So I always 'played nice'

In cartoons, the superhero characters always have a cool pose while flying or whatever. I used to believe when i went to sleep in these poses, i'd wake up wakeup a superhero.

When we had a nationality-day coming up at school, I asked dad where we were from. He said I was half scottish and half finnish.
We had visited our grandparents (from my mother's side) in Scotland before, but I didn't remember hearing about Finland before.
Our last name is Finn (dad had taken mom's name when they married, he has later on said people couldn't pronounce his old one), so I figured it was somehow connected to Finland, and soon decided, my family has their very own country! I don't remember how long I believed this, but I just remembered it, when we were watching a movie where a woman announced she was the princess of Finland. I was a weird kid.

When I saw the movie Toy Story it made me believe that if you treated your toys with the utmost care they could come to life. I remember I would go as far as bathing my toys and shampooing my barbie dolls hair.
