*if I break my shiny ball-shaped hair packer,I'd find sweets.I kept breaking them in 2 but never found any sweets.
*swallow orange seed and it grows out of your hair
*a bank must be shaped like a tank cos they sound alike.difference being the "b" and "t".besides one is used to store money(according to my mum) while the other is used to store water(that I knew).
*a tooth can buy a bag of salt(my dad always said so whenever he would help take out a shaky tooth)
*if u throw your tooth on d neighbor's roof,u sing so that the lizard can see ur teeth first before d rat cos when d rat sees ur teeth,it can't grow back.
*willy-willy from d tv has disappearing powers and can wait for me at d stairs or in a dark room if I'm not escorted.always afraid of that damn ghost!
*ugly looking flowers can talk
*if a cat spits on your leg,the leg turns to a cat's leg.

The rumour of India beating Nigeria 99 - 0 first surfaced in 1987 and I was in primary 4 then,so its not a child's news as you were prolly yet to form in mummy's womb.

It was even composed. We believed he tried to score, the ball turned to bunch of palm nuts, but he shot it anyways, and that was the only Nigerian goal.. He died, and that made fifa to expel India from football tournaments..

I thought everything that appeared in the Newspaper was the Truth. grin

Also those Actors and Actresses that dies in the films were real. I use to marvel how someone will allow himself to be killed after being paid. I thought they were brave and left the money for their families. grin grin

I thought if you see a corpse, the person will come to you in the night. grin grin grin grin.

I believed many silly things too:

• Mail traveled through pipes/ducts that were somehow invisibly interconnected all over the place.
• A watermelon grew in a mom's belly until it grew super big, then she went and traded it for a baby at the market.
• If I swallowed seeds, plants would grow out of my stomach. If I swallowed gum, my intestines would be glued together forever.
• If it rained when the sun was shining, God was watering his garden in heaven.
• I captured a butterfly and when I let it fly away, somehow that made me a butterfly healer.

Ok, go ahead and laugh. I always laugh at my silly self, lol lol lol grin cheesy grin cheesy

Children truly have wild imaginations grin grin grin

I thought if I played with my shadow it would kill me when i was sleeping,i was petrified to even look at my shadow...thanks to my older brother for feeding me that bs.

I thought ppl were inside the tv

I thought by the year 2000 we'd be living like the jetsons

If i didnt brush and floss before bedtime the sandman would take me away when i'm sleeping...again thanks to my older brothers for that bs
