when I was little I thought I was watching a movie about my life through my mother's belly button. I thought that I was learning all sorts of things about life and when I was REALLY born I would grow up to be an incredible genius!

When I was young, I was encouraged by a friend of my parents to think that if I unscrewed my bellybutton, my butt would fall off.
When I was very little, I used to believe that the difference between boys and girls was the length of the hair. One time I saw a picture of my aunt when she was little and she had short hair, and I said to my mom, "Oh, was that when Aunt Bridget used to be a boy?"

when i was 4 or 5 i REALLY wanted to be a lion. so around my house i would go up to sum1 and roar then go up and down the stairs with my hands in front of me. My maid kept saying that i didnt look like a lion so i borrowed my friends lion costume one day and messed my hair up so it would look like a mane and i go up to my maid and roar and say "do i look like a lion now??" and i stretched out my tongue and she says " ur tongue isnt long enough" so evryday i would stretch out my tongue till i was i finished second grade. I think thats why i have a really long tongue now.
When I was little my father would tell my brothers and me that he would cut off out balls in our sleep if we did not behave. I layed awake those night because I thought it was true.

i used to believe if your finger was in your bellybutton, you'd get smarter. i'd walk around everywhere i'd go with my shirt up with my finger in it. i still do it to be honest. people look at me like im a freak.
My grandfather always told my sister and I that our bellybuttons were made by arrows when the Indians shot us. From then on I couldn't watch Pocahontas again until I was nine...
When I was little, my mom always told me that if I kept my eyes crossed for too long, they'd stick that way. Now, I know this "belief" is a bit cliche, but I had NO idea that it wasn't true until a couple of months ago!! I'm now 13. I was so suprised!
I used to think ur belly button was attached to your (mens)... tools because whenever i pressed it my tool would hurt a bit.
Well, I don't know if this is funny, but it is very true:
I was born all but blind in my left eye. I can see some light and blurry colors out of it, only when my good right eye is closed. When both of my eyes are opened, the left one just don't work. (20/800 vision in left eye).
I was 7 years old before my parents found out. After they freaked out, they asked me why I never told them I could hardly see out of my left eye.
I replied,"I thought everybody was like that, just like my right hand is better than my left hand, I thought my eyes were the same way, and that was normal." I thought I was right-eyed, and right-handed.
