My mom always counted 1 2 3 if I did something I shouldnt.
She always said if she counts to 3 something bad would happen.
I always ran away when she said “2”… :face_with_raised_eyebrow::face_with_raised_eyebrow::woman_facepalming::woman_facepalming:

I believed that my parents always done something with food or drinks on Christmas Eve. I could stay up any other night, but on that day after meal I couldn’t stay awake. So I assumed they done smth. :sweat_smile:

I believed the sky was one straight blue layer. Like once you pass the blue layer, then it’s just the darkness of space instead of a gradual transition.

I believed when a person got the hiccups there was a slice of tomato in the heart that caused it (idek)

I believed there was tiny people manually controlling the processes inside my body.

I believed I would be able to get a good college education for free without falling into crippling debt and find a good paying and fulfilling job in a healthy job market so I could buy things I wanted and needed with that money.

Ha.

I was a very naive kid. Like once someone asked me if I wanted a sugar daddy. And me being all innocent I was like “Sure!” Because I thought they meant like…a candy? Then this dude screamed to our class and told our teacher that I wanted a sugar daddy, and I started to cry.

I don’t know who said it to me at the time .
But that if I swallowed a seed, there would be a tree growing inside of my stomach.

That really freaked me the first time , when I accidently swallowed a seed from an apple

I tought that the word “fist” was a even worse than bad word and should never even be mentioned, because someone could get upset.

I thought Asia was in space.
I also didn’t know that the people in movies (such as The Parent Trap) were actually real people, I thought they were fake.
