I remember watching a television show about how SOMEDAY the sun would turn into a red giant and burn the Earth up.
Well, I thought that meant like NEXT WEEK, so for days I kept glancing at the sun through squinted eyes to see if it was getting bigger.
A childhood belief about outer space
others believed things like this
- when I was young I used to believe if I squinted my eyes and it was windy my eyes would stay like this forever— Jeanne
- When my mom would say that my eyes were bigger than my stomach I thought she meant it literally.— Amanda
- i use to think that i was part of a tv show that a giant was watching— victoria
- My parents used to tell me watching television turns your eyes square.— Ruth
- I thought that "tomorrow" was one of the days of the week— Frank
- I always thought that after 1999 it would be 1990 again, but with different months and days of the week
