When I was a kid! I always wanted to grow up to become an Armed Robber... I would raise my chest and proudly say " I want to be a Great Armed Robber" always thought they were honest careers and tough people are often involved.. Damn my Uncle for deceiving me all those years.

Until I got scolded in Primary 2.. Then I understood with an explanation from my teachers..

CuteTj: As a male kid, i was told that the slightest body contact (even just holding hands) with a female will automatically result to pregnancy. I never discovered the truth until i started taking biology classes. I feel like giving my mum a knock for the smooches i missed earlier on!

Badt guy.

.If everywhere suddenly becomes silent, an angel is passing.
.Money grows on trees.
.When i and my cousins go out to play witout my parents permission, while coming back, we'll cut a grass and speak to it, telling it that we are lockin my parents mind from flogging us, then we'll tie the grass into a knot and throw it away.(It always worked. Lol)
.If i swallow an orange seed, it'll grow on my head over night.
.Willi-willi lived at my uncles backyard(we never stepped our foot there)
.There re people living inside our radio and tv set.
.Whenever an Egret is flying by, esp in the evenings, we'll sing "chekeleke yem mbo ocha bia were oji" meaning "chekeleke give me white finger and take my black finger" it worked, we notice white marks on our fingers after the bird passes.

as a kid used to believe there was someone always lurking around our kitchen and toilet every night. i was usually scared stiff to go ease myself beyond 10pm except someone volunteers to go with me. I always had this impression that the guy's face cannot be seen, very dark appearing like a shadow but always comes lurking around till day break when he leaves and returns again at night. so going to toilet was a no no, i'll rather bear it if no one comes with me. grin grin grin
