When I was younger I used to do random things a lot...
I used to hold my breath so African kids could breath it... then when I needed to breath I tried my hardest to breath less in LMFAO... omg im so bad
I also used to try and make a wireless plug socket... didn't work?
I used to listen to high school musical and sing it around the house pretending I was Gabriella lol

Ate a pip from an apple and refused to drink water for the rest of the day so it wouldn't grow into an apple tree in my stomach!
LOLOL jen that's funny
oh I watched a film with kid ninjas in it (god knows what it was called) with my brother so we'd bounce around the house trying to be ninjas.
My class used to collect pencil sharpening in tic tac boxes. Weird children. We used to invent our own games such as hide the closepegs and down the plug hole lmao!

Was trying to think of stuff like holding your breath in tunnels and playing head games with pavements and walls and stuff on the road but I still do all of that...
I used to mix blackcurrant and orange squash and drink it neat because I liked it really strong does that count
When I was younger I had this Pokemon sticker book and in the front it had the story of how Ash ventured on his journey when he turned ten and I though I would do the same.
We used to have stuff on top of our TV and I genuinely believed that if you took them off you could open the top of the TV and go into the cartoons
me and rokgal; used to draw on walls with mini lipsticks if that counts
and then in shopping centres when there are coloured tiles you can only step on like certain colours lol then again we still do that soooo
we used to always push eachother into things as well so there used to be a pet shop ( Rozi; hahahaha) and outside it there was a big pot of water and we'd push eachother into the thing of water afterschool and our mum would get rly annoyed
do they count

Aww time to reveal how sad and lonely I was as a child again Emily; is that your hxf name
Told this story before but I used to have an imaginary "friend" who was actually a plastic kid's hula hoop.. I named him Hoopie and I used to rush to the toys shed every breaktime so none of the other children could steal him. Then I'd spend the whole break just walking round with him chatting to him about my life lol... :(
i loved my imagination as a kid, everything felt so amazing :(
Can't even remember what I did that was weird now

We used to get different colours of knitting wool, hang it off the bag hooks outside of the classroom at lunch time, plait them, and then sell them to other people at school.
Since we couldn't all plait some people would just twist two colours together, they were cheaper.
this thread is gr8 and it makes me feel funny
i cant remember anything i did but i know i was a freak like all of u!

OMG WHEN I MADE THIS THREAD I HAD ONE IN MIND BUT I FORGOT IT AND I JUST REMEMBERED!
I used to think lie detectors work for anyone... so I could put it on someone and ask them for the weather and they couldn't get the answer wrong lmfao.
I always used to wonder why Jeremy didn't ask himself mhmm
I filled up water balloons and pretended they were guinea pigs. I used to wheel them round in the washing basket trolley like a pram. Then we got a puppy and that ended up being wheeled around in the trolley.. poor thing.

Ok the one thing I remember the most are '3 page stories' not to be mistaken with page 3 don't worry. I used to write these stories and they'd only be 3 pages long and it used to include parents giving birth to like 10 children, but the genders had to be equal, so if I had 2 girls there must be 2 boys too. Also in the stories, I had to include twins in it and going on with the equal thing the families would usually all have a set of twin girls, a set of twin boys and mixture of boy and girl. They all started with the wife wanting children so the dad agreed and everything.
Also, in infant school I didn't play with many people or have many friends so each break I'd either play hopskotch or, we had these lines on the play ground so I pretended that it went road, path, road, path, road etc. so I had to cross when no children were coming my way or anything and it was safe to cross.
Omg a few things we always got told off for, putting shaving foam all over the bathroom; we also used to wet toilet roll and throw it on the ceiling, we thought this was appropriate to do anywhere and as we'd seen them in Cleethorpes toilets we decided to do it there too.
Used to always have water fights at my friend's house.
I used to write the wrong way with my left hand if that counts.
I used to spin around until I became dizzy and not step on the cracks in the pavement etc.
I use to cry every day before going to play school too.
I genuinely believed my alien jelly toy thing could have babies :(
