I used to believe…

When I was younger, I used to believe that when I slept and kept my palms open, a bird or something like that would "drop one" in there! I believed this because my older cousin told me a story back then of a little child who went to the bathroom and didnt have any toilet paper so he had to hold his poo in his hand. I was very crazy back then!

i always thought there was a bank of 'health' : that if someone was sick in the family, they could draw on this bank to prolong good health. And that the way to fill up the bank was to count to over a hundred.
Sort of the same principle people use prayer for now.

i use to believe that girls could pee and what they peed from was a perfect circle. It sound stupid right...

i used to believe that deodorant would stop making you sweat EVERYWHERE, so one day i walked downstairs and my mom asked me why i had white powder all over my face...

I used to believe…

for some odd reason I was sure that my food, once swallowed, went down to dwell in the land of my stomach, and would have all kinds of adventures.. so, I literally used to speak to my food (how embarassing) and try to tell them who was allowed to be king, in the realm of my tummy. the worst part about it was when a friend came over, and i didn't want to eat my food without instructing it, but I also knew I would be humiliated if I was found out! This was about the age of 4 or 5.

I used to think that unless someone said, "Sweet dreams" to me before I went to bed, then I would wake up screaming from horrible nightmares - but I wasn't allowed to TELL people to say sweet dreams, because then it wouldn't count.

I used to believe…

You know how, when rub your eyes really hard, you can sort of see swirls of color? I used to be convinced that when I was rubbing my eyes I was making fireworks go off inside my head. I would rub my eyes just for fun.

I used to believe, that if I yawned at the same time someone else yawned, we were automatically the same age. Don't ask me why or how, I just believed it happened.

I used to believe…

My mom called a vagina a bottom and (im a girl) so i always called my wee part a bottom. So just imagine how i was when my friend told me she had to poo with her bottom.

I use to believe that if I had something to drink while going to the bathroom that the drink would go right through me and I would keep on weeing until I finished drinking.

I used to believe that if you ate off of others people plates or their left-overs they would get diahhrea, so i would always cry when someone tryed to eat my leftovers or off my plate in fear they would get diarehea

i once had a dream that, after a running start, i was able to fly a few feet over the sidewalk in front of my house. the dream seemed so real to me that for a while i actually beleived i could do it.

I used to have dreams that I could walk around in the air about half a metre off the ground. It happened so much that I got confused and thought I could really do it. I remember jumping off stuff in the garden and being mighty disappointed that I'd lost that power.

I used to believe…

When i was little i thought that if you stared in the same place for a really long time withought blinking (in the dark) that a fourth dimension would open up. I also thought we lived in the fourth dimension.
I would try and my eyes would dry out.

I used to believe…

My older sister told me when I was young (so it had to be true) that we had a propeller in our stomaches that spun really fast and chopped up our food. So when our stomaches were empty, the blades rubbed the sides and is what made that grumbling sound.

I used to believe that God lived inside you, like there was a real person inside of you,and that he ate the food that you had already eaten
