DUMB CHILDHOOD THOUGHTS.

That being an adult would be so much more awesome than being a kid.

If you're trapped in a falling elevator, jumping at the moment of impact will keep you alive.
..Turns out it doesn't quite work like that. Even if you have pretty strong legs.

After hearing my parents talk about one of those sayings like "Going to Timbuktu" or whatever people would say on a long ass drive. Maybe that was only a Newfoundland thing- I've never heard the "saying" before or since then.

Anyways, after hearing that I assumed "Tim Buck Two" was a shop like Buck or Two and asked when we'd get there.

I believed the HIV virus was made in a laboratory by humans, and released by accident.

I thought I'd remember everything I've ever done when I was a child.

I legitimately thought drinking alcohol would grow your facial hair out faster when I was, like, 10. Now my brother thinks it for whatever reason.

Yeah... crazy mindsets run in the family.

The back of my village is a vacant lot and bushes. I often visit the back of the village to check if "the gate to the pokemon world" is opened. So I could go in and be a pokemon professor then I don't have to study or find a job.

#It's still not opened :P

I thought that movies continued during commercial breaks and that I was missing key scenes during the breaks. (the turning point came, I still remember it, during an episode of Rescue Rangers where a robot dog was attacking our heroes and I distinctly remember it being the exact same scene after the commercials and I sort of went "oh")

I don't remember this (not completely) but I thought when starting school that I would stay there for the whole time (possibly something I got from books about boarding schools). So apparently when I got home from my first day at school I told my mom "they let us go home!" No wonder I had been incredibly anxious about my first day of school.

That actors who ham it up and overact are, in fact, acting perfectly natural and that's how everyone in real life acts.
