For Christmas, when I was 5, I got a Baby So Beautiful, which is an American doll that is designed in millions of ways, which means it can look like any little kid. I got one that looked exactly like me brown hair, green eyes and big red lips. I thought for a while that my sister and I (who got one too) were famous and everyone was buying our dolls. This happened until I looked at the catalogue.

when I was little and pulled a face at my sister, my mother always said, that if the wind changed directiond, my face would stay like that

I used to think that if I closed my eyes I would be invisible

I used to think for some reason that when you wore clothes with buttons on them, you put on the shirt and then somebody came up and sewed them on your body and they stabbed you with a needle as they did it. i still rarely wear shirts with buttons.

When I was little, for some odd reason I used to think that when you got your ears pierced, it was this big medical process. You had to go to the hospital and then they put you in a hospital gown and strapped you to a board that took you through a machine and when you came out the other side, your ears were pierced...how they were actually pierced was beyond me.

when my brother was little my mom would have the hardest time trying to get him to keep his shirt tucked in. One day we were getting pictures done and he kept untucking it so my mom told him that if he didnt keep his shirt tucked in he would get a hernia. My dad had just had a hernia operation so we saw how much pain he was in. He never untucked his shirt again until he was about 14 and learned the truth.

When I was not quite two and my mother had just finished changing my (cloth) diaper, I told her "Now Mommy lie down. I change Mommy." I believed that all adults wore diapers, just as I did. I thought the toilet was for washing them out.

there was a guy at my church whose eyebrows were pointy so it looked like he was angry all the time. My sister and i believed that he was in fact angry all the time and we named him "the angry man".

i once thought that some days your face changed to look like someone else's

i decided one day on my way to nursery, that i looked like this girl who i didn't like and refused to go in (involving kicking and screaming). my mum didn't make me go but she was furious because i wouldn't tell her why.

I've always ha d a little pop belly (I still do), all my friends had them too, so when I went off to school and us girls were playing house and we all pretended we were pregnant, it came as a shock when one girl lifted her shirt and she had a huge belly, and another was as flat as a board. After that I was stumped, "Why did these girls look different?" I came to a conclusion, they were other animals, not humans because humans all have pop bellies.

i moved to a new town when i was little and most of the kids and teachers had brown hair brown eyes. i thought i had my blonde hair and green eyes because i wasnt from that town

I once was told that ONLY virgins get acne. After sex, no new pimples grow. I believed that.

When I turned 18, I remembered that when I was younger (and chubby), I thought that when i turned 18 i would turn skinny. Like all 18 year olds are skinny or something.

i used to belive that if your shadow punched or kicked another shadow , the other shadow would get hurt... and so would the person with the shadow! i would spend ours beating up peoples shadow's so i could say, "my shadow did it!"

All races other than those of Asian origin had exactly the same facial features. The only thing different were the hair color and texture, and skin color.

I thought that babies were born with baby clothes including the bib. I thought that babies were so innocent that they can't arrive in the world shamefully naked, as nudity to me was the synonym of unprecedented perversion.

When I was younger, and used to play hide-and-seek, I used to think that nobody could see me if I couldn't see them! Wonder why I always lost that game, seeing as I would just stand in the middle of a room and close my eyes!

i used to believe that if u got permanent marker on yourself it would stay there for ever and ever
