you know the saying "fall back, spring forward"? When we set the clocks back an hour in the fall, I thought we were actually traveling back in time by 1 hour. I thought we had to redo everything we did in the past hour. And when we set them forward in the spring, I thought we were traveling 1 hour into the future. I didn't understand why we did it every year. I wondered "Why should we travel back in forth in time so much?" haha, I was stupid...

when i was like in the first grade i would like to stay up late on the weekends, but my mom would always tell me to go to sleep. well, one night i stayed up all the way to midnight, but i was so scared that the devil would come through my floor and get me, since i heard that 12:00 was the "bewitching hour". i finally got over staying up past midnight, every once in awhile, i get scared again and go to bed.

I used to believe tat leap year was a year when all the frogs came out and jumped on leap pads with numbers on them.

When I was little I thought that all you had to do to time travel into the future was to run really fast in a straight line. One day I went to my brother's track meet and asked my parents why he wasn't in the future yet, and they explained. Ha.

I used to think if you stared at a clock the time wouldn't move and i used to be amazed at how fast it would change when i blinked.

When I was little, I asked my mom what Labor Day was. She told me it was a day when all grown-ups didn't have to work, and kids had to do chores all day. I avoided my parents all day on Labor Day so that I wouldn't have to work!

I used to believe that January 1st was that day that everyone rushed to the stores to by a new calender.

My dad once told me that a button on his watch, when pushed, would "beam him up" to another time. I was afraid to hold his watch-hand for fear of touching it by accident.

I remember my first leap year. I remember seeing the calander had an extra day for the month of February, and I began to think that every year, February added another day to the month. I figured it out the next year when there were only 28 days again.

You know the saying "Don't wear white after labor day"? Well I used to think that you couldn't wear white at all because "after labor day" lasted up until the next labor day so I never ever wanted to wear white. I believed that until age 13. That's when I finally asked my dad and he told me that it was from labor day until easter.

When I was little, I used to believe that when the night would come that it would stay night forever until I went to bed.

I use to think labor day was neighbor day where you would go out and visit all your neighbors.

I just used to think that seconds were minutes and minutes were seconds....I believed that until about 5th grade.

I know...it's sad.
