My Father used to tell me that Unicorns existed a long time ago, but everyone liked them more than Jesus, so God killed them all.

My Aunt once told me that the sheep wool we found in fields was in fact bits of cloud that had fallen from the sky.I believed her for years and years and developed quite a collection.

There is a room in the museum here full of stuffed birds and drawers containing eggs, nests, droppings, etc. I had a nightmare after visiting the museum that the drawer full of worms and the one full of nests was the same, and birds' nests were actually made of worms. I was thereafter afraid of touching nests for fear that the worms would be agitated and wiggle away, leaving the birds homeless.

Eu acreditava que quando uma pessoa era mordida por uma tartaruga, só conseguia se soltar dela se desse um trovão na hora.

Também acreditava que se fizéssemos "careta", e um vento forte passasse na hora, a cara da gente ficava igual à da "careta" pra sempre.

I used to believe that if I didn't cover up my ears with my quilt when I was in bed bugs would come and live in them, I still usually cover up my ears.

For my 8th birthday I had my heart set on getting a budgie. My mum and me went to work on a list of things that the bird would need. I was quite perplexed though as to why the bird would need a " cuddle fish ". It took me a while to realise I had mis-heard cuttle fish for beak sharpening. I did, however have to most adorable picture of my little bird going to sleep every night snuggled up to his pet fish.

When I was about 11 yrs old I asked my mom how kittens were born and she said "through their mother's mouth". For many years I believed it and thought nothing about it. I was well into my forties when I found out the truth through a friend.

My mom's friend had a Himalayan. Being a cat owner myself, I had never seen a flat- faced cat that way before, and I asked her why he was that way. She said it was because he ran into the backyard fence when he was outside as a kitten. Every time we went over to her house, I would ask the cat, "And how's your face?"

i used to believe that when you got bitten by a flea they crawled under your skin and played poker then when you got an itch it was when one of the fleas won a poker game and there antennas tickled under your skin.

I used to always color cats either blue or orange. This is because my friend had an orange tabby and because Tom, from Tom and Jerry, looked downright BLUE in a lot of the cartoons!

When I would undress to go into the shower, for some reason my dog seemed to follow me around and try to play with me more than he normally would, which led me to believe that dogs had a perverted side. When i realized he just wanted to smell my upper arms, which were usually covered by my shirt, i got over that fear.

When I was about 7, I would catch flies and put them in a set of plastic drawers I had. I would put a soda bottle top full of water and a few of my little toys in with them, figuring they would have a party or make a city. Of course, once they died the next day I always wondered what I did wrong. I'd try to give them new toys, but they never lived.
