When my daughter was little she would wonder what the sunbeams through the clouds were, especially after a rain storm. I told her they were angels watching over us and everyone else. To this day (she's now 12), when we see streaming sunbeams through the clouds we point out the angels to each other.

Quote from my dad: "If it rains while the sun is shining it means the devil is beating his wife behind the door". I *still* don't know what it means.

One day when I was about 6 years old, I was watching the weather and I noticed on the bottom of the screen it said, "Skycast: Green".

Being so young and hearing that when the sky turned green, tornadoes were likely to happen, I started crying my eyes out.

My mom told me, "They don't mean the sky is actually green; they just mean there's not that much pollen in the air. Now calm down!"

That confused the crap outta me for a year or two. :P

— Still terrified of storms.

I believed that if I would blow in a certain direction, a strong wind would circle the entire earth and come from behind me in a few days.

Because I lived in the tropics when I was little, I used to believe winter is only in December. In January and February it should be warm again. Imagine my surprise when I moved to Europe to study.

When I was quite young I knew there were two kinds of snow: white and black. I didn't know where the black snow came from but I knew where to find it -- alongside the road. One day I said to myself (because I also thought I had to explain my actions by thinking out loud, like on TV) that I was already familiar with the taste of white snow but not black snow. So I scooped up a handful and put it in my mouth. Needless to say, it tasted just awful and I never did that again!

When I was in kinder, me and my friend Jackie would sit on the play-equiptment for hours and hours with our mouths open, "Eating The Wind"...

hee hee so cute!

I used to believe that it couldn't possibly rain until there was no blue left showing in the sky. I was very surprised by my first sun-shower, and I'm pretty sure it happened while I was in high school!

When I was riding in the car a rainbow appeared in the sky out the front windshield. I wanted my father to drive faster so we could go under it before it disappeared. I discovered that rainbows were optical phenomena and not physical objects when playing with the garden hose. The rainbow produced by the spray would always be the same size and if I tried to get closer or change my viewpoint it would vanish.
