I used to believe that buffalos really did have wings…

They must have just been REALLY small

I used to believe if you went to the cinema and looked at the screen you would turn into that character. *blushes* I DIDN'T WANT TO BE SHREK!

I used to believe that my stuffed animals would get up and walk around in my room. If I didn't treat them well and put them away like I was supposed to, they would sit on my pillow and stare at me all night, giving me nightmares. One guess who planted that seed:
M. O. M.

Haha I love those!

I used to believe that if you accidently swallowed an apple pip..

A full blown apple tree would start growing inside you.

Weirdly, it didn't seem to worry me as much as it should!

1. That Santa Claus actually invited me to the North Pole

2. That George Forman wasn't real

3. That I'd find a girlfriend in high school

4. That I was actually Holden Caulfield

1. The care bears were going to get me.

2. Lemony Snicket was real.

3. I'm going to die at age ten.

1) I used to think teachers lived at school.

2) I used to pretend I had a guinea pig.

3) If I pointed at people and coughed they would get ill.

4) The lollipop man is awesome.

My parents used to tell me that the tooth fairy was real, but I knew otherwise. I even did a test to prove it- I didn't tell anybody that I lost my tooth but put it under my pillow anyway, and when the tooth fairy didn't come that proved that it was all a total farce and someone else was putting the money under my pillow.

But I played along anyway and pretended she was real because I thought my parents still believed in it and didn't have the heart to tell them otherwise.

I used to believe that if I properly sat on the toilet, a venomous snake would bite me on...y'know...

I knew for years that she ain't real I just wanted money.

I also had this dream-catcher, and believed that if you shook it or accidentally bumped into it, the bad dreams would escape and I would have the nightmares again. I only believed in this because one time I hit my head on it (it was hanging from one of my ceiling fan pullstrings), went to bed thinking about it, and had a terrifying nightmare that I had dreamed a year or so before. It still creeps me out, but I know it isn't true... XD I was ten, so you'll have to cut me some slack there XD

Well, when we went to england and visited tourist-y places in london, dad led me to believe that the queen invited us for dinner. I even left a space for her signature in my diary.

I should have known better, really. >.>

I also used to think that each country was a separate planet! I think that was because of a picture I saw in an encyclopedia about the break-up of pangaea.

I used to believe that 'politics' meant 'gore'....

I was not a gullible child >.>

I occasionally believe I have telekinetic powers, but they never pan out.
