random beliefs
When I was a kid I used to believe that if I put a regular egg from the fridge underneath one of my stuffed toys a live, baby version of my toy would hatch.
My older brother told me that if you ate nothing but bananas and vaseline all your life, you would live forever.
I used to think that people who experimented with drugs actually put them in test tubes and did chemistry experiments to see what was in them. (I couldn't see how that would be any fun.)
Everyone in my family wears glasses, and they love to read. So, when I was little, I used to believe glasses allowed to read. I always wanted to go to the optic in hopes of getting mine.
My mom used to tell me that if I slept on more than one pillow, my neck would permanently bend forward.....until I looked like a hunchback.
I used to beleive that pockets of air trapped under the ice of puddles were little bits of god, which I had to release by breaking the ice.
I used to think underground trains actually descended into the tunnel, like a rollercoaster.
My next door neighbours brother once told me that you couldnt eat the wafer cone from an Ice Cream and that they were paper/cardboard and only to hold up the ice cream...i never ate them for years!!
When I was young and saw an orchestra playing I used to believe the conductor was waving a magic wand and making the instruments play by themselves.
I used to think in "row your boat", they said "life is butter dream". I always pictured rowing your boat down a lake of butter in the sky.
