What are some things you thought as a kid?

Other than the regular stuff like Santa, tooth fairy and the Easter bunny?

When I was about 5. I thought that moving meant putting our hands together and these magical faries would come, spin around us and take us to our new house. Like when on dragon tales, how Emmy and max would when they're going to dragonland. Lol.

I also thought that I was native American once because a lady called me Indian. So, I'd start chanting these things because I thought my "real parents" would come for me. Lol. I was devasted when I found out I wasn't.

That's what I miss about childhood, making up your things and thinking you're right. (:

BQ: Favorite cartoon shows growing up?

    I thought I was going to die for literally years since I was about four because I ate rhubarb leaves and my mom told me they were poisonous after. I never told her because I thought she'd be mad because she told me not to eat them. So i spent the longest time how long it was going to take for me to die. Now it's just funny though haha. I told my mom the other day.

    BQ: Arthur XD I still like it.

    BQ2: My grandma has a picture of me at her house when i was five and I look adorable lol. It's funny because i thought i was extremely ugly as a kid.

    I thought the reason it got dark at night was because God was holding the world in his hands and turning it around and around, and it got dark on whichever side his hands were covering.

    I was afraid to eat Goldfish crackers because I thought they were real fish.

    I thought some people were born adults and some people were born kids and everybody just stayed the same age.

    I thought the idea of outer space was fictional. I was shocked when I discovered there actually were other planets out there.

    If when I was in bed, a body part (except my face) was sticking out without a piece of clothing on them, that somebody would tickle me or chew off that body part.

    I used to be convinced that chucky from child's play was in my closet. I made my mom put one of those touch lights in there and I would lay there paranoid half of the night. My mom's boyfriend had a chucky doll and he would sneak it in my room at night, and it scared me to death!

    BQ2: One of me on my 6th birthday with a cookie cake.
