In fifth grade my teacher had this thing to motivate us before a test. She would give us smarties to help us get smarter. Well I know it sounds weird, but when she gave them to us everyone would pass the test, and if she didn't no one would. So to this day (i'm in college) I eat smarties before a test. lol
A childhood belief about sweeties

others believed things like this
- everybody else were robots and I was a human test!
— Chas - I used to believe that whenever I got an F on a test it stood for fantastic. — megan
- If you pick Dandelions then you wet your pants. Honestly...I've never tried and I'm not going to test it!— Charlene
- I used to honestly think that Smarties were medicine.Anon
- Dark brown Smarties were poisonous.Anon
- when i was a child i used to think that my belly button was for storing smarties— GemSue
