I used to believe…

When I was really small and just saw one of the Aliens movies I was convinced that if I didn't sleep with my mouth covered by a sheet I'd be facehugged in my sleep. Even now I'm so into the habit I can't sleep if I don't have the sheet or quilt up to my nose.

I used to believe that there was a toenail fairy. When I was about 5 someting happened to my big toenail to make it slowly fall off. When it finally completely seperated from my toe, i told my mother, who told me to put it under my pillow and the toenail fairy would come. Sure enough, the next morning there was a crisp dollar bill under my pillow.
I always bragged to everyone how i got money from the toenail fairy and no one knew what i was talking about.
In case you were wondering, my toenail did grow back fully.

When I was little, I could never go into this one section in this small museum because of this huge tortoise shell. This shell was hung on the ceiling over a flight of stairs going down and I would think it was going to come and get me, so we would have to take the elevator.

When I would always drive in the car with my mom when I was little, I would have this imaginary friend that would do backflips only on the tops of the houses that we drove by. My friend would just do continuous backflips from where the roofs form points.

When I was nine or so, I heard the legend of Bloody Mary. However, my sister was called Mary, and since my parets would tease her by calling her Bloody Mary, I thought it meant her.

I used to make really little houses out of leaves and sticks under trees so the fairies will have some place to live.

I used to believe…

At night, when i lay in my bed, next to the window, if i were restless, i would sometimes sit up and look through the window. Every time i looked through the window, the next door neighbors lights turned on (This was just a coincidence). But i thought that they were spying on me. Somehow, i got the idea that they were aliens.

I used to think that the 'floaters' you sometimes see behind your eyes were fairies. I got many, many odd looks from people when they heard me talking to them, and I built little houses in the backyard for them, complete with furniture made of moss and sticks.

When me + my sis were little we believed we were vampire slayers. We used to walk around with sharp sticks and think that vampires really existed. Too much Buffy i am thinking.

I used to believe…

When I was small, I always saw snakes coming out of the walls at night. (They looked like thick worms, and were colours like the ones you see from looking at a bright light and then looking away.) The biggest was the KING SNAKE, and the whole room would *shake* to announce that he was coming.
My mother tried to tell me that snakes did not come out of the walls, but then they started coming out of her too. So I decided that there was an invisible switch on the ceiling that I could flip with my eyes, and that switch would make the snakes freeze. In a couple of nights they figured out that I could freeze them, so they went away for good.

i had imaginary friends i always talk to them i and be dramatic like i was captured be a cuty and stuff like that i started when i was 3 till i was 11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I was very young I was watching a "Friday the 13th" movie on tv with my Dad. (It is the series of movies with Jason, in case you don't know.) There was a scene with a little girl saying her prayers at her bed with Jason hiding underneath watching her. My Dad said to me "see, if you're good Jason doesn't kill you." Scared me for years. Thanks a lot Dad.
