As a kid


I'd put my arms in my shirt and tell people I lost my arms.

Would restart the video game whenever I knew I was going to lose.
 
Had that one pen with four colors, and tried to push all the buttons at once.
 
Waited behind a door to scare someone, then left because they took too long to come out.
 
Used to think that the moon followed our car.
 
Tried to balance the switch between On & Off.
 
Watched two rain drops roll down the window and imagined it was a race.
 
The only thing I had to take care of was a school bag.
 
Swallowed a fruit seed and I was scared to death that a tree was going to grow in my tummy.
 
Closed the fridge extremely slowly to see when the lights went off.
 
Secretly peep into my toy room to see if my toys came alive.

Imagined that every outdoor game I played was a mission to save the world.


Yup, did all of the above...
