What We Think About As Children
мαнєη∂яα

Children can come up with the craziest ideas and ask the most unexpected questions such as, “How do chickens fit in those tiny eggs,” or “The Easter Bunny poops jelly beans.” We were kids at one point, maybe some of us are still kids, maybe some of us have kids of our own. Regardless, everyone knows what I am talking about. That’s just the beginning. Here’s my list of what we think about as a child:

1. Pink cows make pink milk

I used to believe that white milk came from white cows and chocolate milk came from brown cows. So I was always looking for the pink cows that produced the strawberry milk. Hey, child’s logic.

2. Where do babies come from?


3. Why are the clouds crying?

Don’t cry clouds! Let me sing rainy time songs to make you feel better.

4. Santa!

5. All cartoons are real

I am going to meet the real Spongebob Squarepants and Bugs Bunny.

6. Kisses heal booboos

I have an ouchy here, an owie there, a sore here…

7. The understanding of magic

It’s gone! I’m never getting it back! I’m going to cry until you make it reappear.

8. Tooth Fairy

9. I can fly

All I have to do is flap my wings like the birds and the bees.

10. When I grow up I want to become…

A princess, a superhero, Taylor Swift… the list only grows.

11. A book

You could care less about the words. You just want the pictures.

12. I’m a big kid

I can get my own pop and make my own food, but I can’t even tie my own shoes yet.

13. The Pool

It must be 100 feet deep and the length of three football fields!

14. Meeting a new family member

Who are you? What are you doing here? Why are you hugging my mommy? That’s my mommy, you stay away. I have dibs.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
