bathrooms

after i was finished with my bath and the water was draining out, the drain would make a sound which, to me, sounded exactly like a cow moo-ing. i was completely convinced that a farmer had previously lived in our house and after bathing his cow accidentally let it get sucked down the drain.
to this day i wont let any part of my body touch touch the drain if there's water in the tub.

You know when kids have finished brushing their teeth they put the brush under the tap and then suck all the water from it? Probably not, but when I was younger I thought that you could only do that 5 times if you were 5, 6 times if you were 6, and so on, if you did any more your toothbrush would be taken away from you. Obviously.

I used to think scales measured your feet because on time my grandma asked me what i was doing i told her i was measuring my feet and that i had a right to measure my feet to.

Once when I was really young I had a shower with my cousin. Well, the pipe had sort of broken that leads from the shower box to the head, and the head sort of started to 'wiggle' around and from then on I was scared of showers. I was cured of this fear a few years ago.

when i was 3 i was afriad i would be swept down the bathtub drain when the water was flowing out so i always made her pull me out before she pulled the plug. but then she made me sit down and look at the size of me and the size of the drain and i got the picture.

As far as I knew, people took baths because they needed to be watered in order to grow, just like plants. It made absolutely perfect sense.

The only thing I couldn't figure out about it was why people kept on giving the excuse that people bathe to keep clean. Really, being watered seemed a whole lot more logical!

I used to believe that the more water you ran in the sink, the bigger the sink bowl that was under the cabinet would get.

When i was little i thought that if i stayed in the bathtub too long it would grow teeth and fold in half and turn into a shark and eat me.

When I was really little, about 2-5 I didn't like taking baths because I thought I was going to go down the drain. If my mom pulled the drain I'd jump out quickly because I didn't want to get sucked in.

When i was little I used to believe that the bristles on my toothbrush had big scary mouths that ate the plaque off your teeth. So then i was afraid that the bistles would eat my tounge. So i was always afraid to ever brush my teeth which might explain my mouth fungus......HAHA! jk.

i used to think that if you closed your eyes in the shower, then little centipedes would come out of the shower head!

I use to believe that perana could swim up the drain of the bath tub and eat you! Or at least that is what my sister told me when I was six, right after we watched the movie "Perana". I didn't take a bath for a year(I was stuck taking showers with a plate over the drain)!
