the world

I used to believe that Sammy Davis Jr. was a baseball player. That belief went down the drain when I saw Wayne's World 2

I thought that I had 5 coins in my box (one dime and four pennies), I thought that was the same as 5 dollars

When we went to Miani, I thought it was "my ami" and I said "when you go to your ami"?

when i was about 4-6, i thought australia and america where the same place.

Up until I was about 10, I used to think that all italians lived in huge house, had mistashes(like mario), ate spagettie every night for dinner, were always joyful and sang italian songs all day and night, lol.

Once when I was young my dad once said that we were going to see Miami. I figured that "ami" must have been a name for a relative of some sort. I later said that we were going to see "Papa's ami".

I used to be a great Cricket Fan. When i was a child, i always believed that when a batsman gets out, he infact dies and becomes the past. So whenever my country's batsman would get out, i used to start weeping bitterly. [lolzzz]

When I was about 4 or so years old and my parents took me to the beach, my mom told me that if you dig under the sand really deep you can reach China. So I believed that China was underneath all beaches and if you dug really deep you'd be on top of China and could reach it.

I used to believe that there was a magical world inside my friend's forest (she lives on an acreadge)....though after finding nothing, I think I'm reconsidering XD

I used to be absolutely convinced thay volleyball was bollyball. I said it all the time and I guess that when I said it people didn't realized because no one ever corrected me. I finally realized that it was volleyball one day when I was reading with my dad. I came across the world and realized that it was volleyball not bollyball, I was so shocked. I wondered why no one ever corrected me and why I had never heard anyone destinctly say it with a v.

When I was little I would see my dad go into the bank and come out with money and I thought that that was how it was - when you wanted money you just went to the bank and they gave it to you. I know that this is basically how it works, but just didn't realise that you had to earn it and deposit it in the bank first!!

Whenever I watched a football game, and they interviewed the coach, I always thought it was weird that he was "smoking" because I lived in a warm place, so I didn't know it was cold and you could see your breath.

I thought Alaska was an island since it always appears in a box next to Hawaii on a map of the US. I didn't figure it out until high school when my friend said her dad was going on a road trip to Alaska. When I asked her if her dad didn't need to go on a boat, she thought I was kidding.

When I was little, I used to believe that Disneyland was in the clouds. Until I actually went to Disneyland, I figured out it wasn't in the sky, and I felt really stupid! haha :)

Back when I was a very small child living in Korea, my view on America was basically wide, open plains of bison and Indians roaming free, rivers of sweet Coca-cola, giant 18-wheelers crossing the country in an epic adventure, rugged cowboys, etc. Then I moved to the U.S. and found that only the Coke thing is basically true.

In 6th grade I moved from Ontario, Canada to New York, and told several of my new classmates that beaver tails are a Candian delicacy, that my old school had been held in an igloo, and that I rode a dogsled or possibly a mammoth instead of a schoolbus each morning. (Some of them caught on when I got to the mammoth, some didn't.)
