When I was 6 or so, I had months and years reveresed in my head (ie: 12 years in one month). So when I was told Christmas was 3 months away, I was horrified at the thought that I wouldn't get another gift till I was nine.
A childhood belief about general
others believed things like this
- My sister used to think that because I was 15 months older than her, I would die 15 months before her!— Nicola Braden
- My sister told me that if you had sweetcorn in your poo, you had six months to live! I cried for weeks — Billy
- I always thought that after 1999 it would be 1990 again, but with different months and days of the week
— optional - Until about 6 months ago (I'm 21), I believed a bidet was used to wash your feet in.
Eep!— Rebekah - I thought that Dad's were always older then Mom's, come to find out my mom is a few months older than my dad.— Nicole
- I used to believe reindeer made it rain because for many years it rained on christmas eve night.Anon
