I used to believe that your shoelaces could get caught in an escalator and you would get horrifically mauled as you got dragged into the tiny space between the floor and the stair.

I used to believe that babies where really old people that had 'turned young again' and that graveyards where only there for decoration. I believed this until my dad gave my sister, brother and me 'the talk'

I used to think that every star in the night sky repersent one of my previous friends from the past. Everytime i looked @ them, i would hum a melody and the stars would start to shine brighter. I still like to hum and watch the stars because of the comfort it brings.

I used to believe that convicts who had done really serious crimes, and have had death sentences were forced to play part in a theatre or film production where they would be killed on set (aka, actors who die). This was inspired when I went to watch a play in the threater where someone was "hung" on stage. I now know, they were wearing a harness.

When I was in Kindergarten we were practicing a fire drill on the school bus. They put my whole class on the bus and shut all the doors. I thought they were really going to set the bus on fire and I freaked out because there was no adults on the bus to open the back door. I remember standing there in line screaming "Who's going to open the door!?" (I didn't know they could open it from the outside) I really thought if I we didn't all hurry and make it off the bus we would die. I ran off the bus and my teacher had to calm me down and assured me nothing bad was going to happen. So I got back on the bus after everyone else was done and went out the back and everyone clapped. I remember feeling so relieved that I wasn't going to have to fight for my life that day and I little silly realizing that it was so easy just to jump out the back.

when i was really little(about 2-3), and my family and i would ride in a car with the windows open, i used to be pertrified that i would fly out the window, so i used to hold tightly onto anything i can grab. i was ssssoooooo scared.

When I was little, I thought you weren't supposed to have favorites in your family, you were supposed to love everyone the same. But secretly, my grandfather, my mother's father, was my favorite of my grandparents. He died when I was 8, the first of my grandparents to pass away and the only one to die during my childhood (didn't lose another g-parent til my 20's). For a long time I thought God took him away from me, to punish me for having a favorite and not loving all my grandparents the same.
