When I was little, my sister had her ears peirced and I wanted them done but I was too young. So one day I asked her if I could change them for her. She went on and told me this whole story when a little girl had her sister change her earrings for her and her heasd fell off.. and I was scared to death for months.

I used to think that instead of bones and blood and tissue that you body was made up of tuna.

After reading the story The Twits by Roald Dalh I thought that if my stomach was itchy it must mean I am dirty because that is what its says in the book. To this day eveytime my stomach gets an itch I think of that book!

I used to believe that mice lived in our bodies. They controlled where you looked, if you had an itch, it was the mice poking a stick where you had to itch, etc. This lasted for years until I started learning about the body.

When I was little I didn't know what saliva was, so i thought everyone had a different drink that appeared in their mouth, and i thought mine was water. I thought my dad's was orange juice.

your eyes change colour if you tell lies. Your brains will fall out if you pick your nose. My mum used to say she had eyes in the back of her head.

I used to think that if you cut your leg in half, it would look like a cucumber!!!

After your teeth fall out when you're a kid, your gums fall out. Then you get new gums and teeth.

i don't know where this one came from or how i started believing it but i used to think that is you went to bed with your socks on, they would stick to your feet.

I used to believe that if you made a funny face and someone hit you in the back of the head, your face would stay like that.

Gotta love my mom :)

I used to believe we each had little flames inside and under our arms (so what if I couldn't see them), and that was why it was so warm there.

I begged my mother to let me pierce my ears when I was 5, and after a while, she agreed. As the day got closer, I heard that they'd be using an 'earring gun' to do the piercing. She found me crying, because I thought that it was a handgun loaded with an earring, and what if they missed my ear and got my face?

When I was 8 or so, I was convinced that "prosthesis" meant the same thing as "prophecy." Needless to say, I was teriffically confused when the school counselor read us a book about a little boy who had no hands....XD

I used to try to talk in a really deep voice when I was little because that's how my dad talked. My Papa told me if I kept it up my voice box would get stuck in low... I didn't talk deep again until I was in high school

I used to believe that only people that were in love had a heart.
