I used to believe…

My name is Cara...When I was little, my family owned a caravan. When my parents sold the caravan and bought a voyager, I thought I would have to change my name to Voya!

I used to believe…

My sister was a year older than me. At some point (probably when I was 3, she 4), I told my mom that I wouldn't wait until next year, when I would get a chance to be a girl and see what it was like.

i once thought that some days your face changed to look like someone else's

i decided one day on my way to nursery, that i looked like this girl who i didn't like and refused to go in (involving kicking and screaming). my mum didn't make me go but she was furious because i wouldn't tell her why.

I used to believe…

When I was little my older brother used to tell me that I was mintally retarted and I believed him for the longest time...and then one day I asked my mom if I was and she told me that I wasn't and my brother got in trouble for making me believe it!!!

I used to believe that lies can get bigger and bigger if you hold them in. So when my sister went up to me and asked if i forgot to flush the toilet. I said "YES! I AM SORRY! I PROMISE I WON'T DO IT AGAIN! I WON'T HOLD IN THE LIE ANYMORE! IT WILL GET BIG AND I WILL BLOW UP!!!"

I've always ha d a little pop belly (I still do), all my friends had them too, so when I went off to school and us girls were playing house and we all pretended we were pregnant, it came as a shock when one girl lifted her shirt and she had a huge belly, and another was as flat as a board. After that I was stumped, "Why did these girls look different?" I came to a conclusion, they were other animals, not humans because humans all have pop bellies.

i moved to a new town when i was little and most of the kids and teachers had brown hair brown eyes. i thought i had my blonde hair and green eyes because i wasnt from that town

I used to believe…

When I turned 18, I remembered that when I was younger (and chubby), I thought that when i turned 18 i would turn skinny. Like all 18 year olds are skinny or something.

i used to belive that if your shadow punched or kicked another shadow , the other shadow would get hurt... and so would the person with the shadow! i would spend ours beating up peoples shadow's so i could say, "my shadow did it!"

I used to believe…

when i was like 6 years old some guy in my class told me that they had changed the girls toilets to the guys toilets and the guys toiletd to the girls toilets. so i (being a girl) had to go into the guys toilets. And when i needed to pee i went to the guys toilets and some guy started yelling at me

I used to believe that a "tattoo" was a bar of soap. My kindergarten teacher told us that getting a tattoo would make us go crazy. My mom was giving me a bath, when I started screaming once she picked up the soap. I was screaming "DON'T GIVE ME A TATTOO! I DON'T WANT TO GO CRAZY!"

I used to believe…

When I was little I got so mad because I was making a sign that said "Happy Birthday Katie" and my dad said that birthday was spelled birth day like on the day you were born.I got so mad that I started screaming and crying all because "birthday" was spelled "birth day". haha

I used to believe…

When I was little I didn't really understand the concept of a 'Birthday'. I knew it happened once a year but I didn't think it had a set date so every year i'd ask my mum what day my birthday was on.

I have brothers who are quite a bit older than me. When I was 3 or 4, there were a few books on my brother's bookshelf that I was told would hurt me if I opened them. I remember being 7 or 8 and my mother and I were cleaning off the shelf. She reached for the Fred Flintstone book and I began screaming, "Don't open it! Don't open it!" I thought a razor blade (the most deadly thing I knew of then) was going to fall out of the pages.

What a cruel way to keep your baby sister from coloring in your books.

I thought that babies were born with baby clothes including the bib. I thought that babies were so innocent that they can't arrive in the world shamefully naked, as nudity to me was the synonym of unprecedented perversion.

I used to believe…

When I was younger, and used to play hide-and-seek, I used to think that nobody could see me if I couldn't see them! Wonder why I always lost that game, seeing as I would just stand in the middle of a room and close my eyes!
