What is the most notorious thing you have done, as a child?

[remember_Cedric]

It need not be just one.....it can be A LIST!

I was "Ace Ventura*" when I was a kid. I loved to set my neighbour's pet free (birds, usually).......... without their consent, of course. And, I'd usually leave some sort of markings behind (after my handy work), like Zorro.

Now, out with your guilty pleasure!

I won't even talk about them. Too ashamed.

I tried to set the school on fire when I was 9 years old. The plan was that while everyone was evacuating, my friends and I would loot the tuckshop for candy and ice cream.

Quite brilliant. That reminds me of a similar "crime" I did back in middle school. One night, my friends and I ambushed the soccer field with pinball size firecrackers which are not easily visible due to its color. They 'pop' away when stepped on, and imagine there were, I think, thousands (or more) of them.... So, the next morning, fun begins

wondering if these are considered notorius:
1. stealing my neighbours' stamp albums. not caught but somehow my neighbours found out. Stamp albums are returned possibly by mum. Can't remember what happened later.
2. taking own money from own piggy bank without mum's permission to buy box games
3. lying to and asking mum for money to buy assessment books when money was used for cinema tickets
4. lying to teacher that dad forgot to buy a ball-point pen. actually i did not ask as i know it will cost some amount of money to buy such a pen.
5. joining neighbours to go to a "closed-down" school to see if there is anything we can take (or is it considered stealing)
6. insisting sisters to return money i lost in card games

I laid a deuce over the edge of my relative’s (by marriage) roof in China. (My cousin also did it) Not as a prank though cuz we just had no place to go... Other than that, I didn’t really do anything evil as a kid. I did steal some cards a few times.

Then puberty hit, and for various reasons developed a streak of meanness in me. Though I still didn’t really do anything that bad. Never bullied people or physically hurt anyone.

i shattered our ceiling light in the living room trying to do an "around the world" trick with my yo-yo. when my mom came running in, i had already stashed the yo-yo and told her that the light just fell and broke on its own.

In elementary school I forged my parents' signature so I could go on field trips.

As a child, there was no pair of boobies in the neighbourhood that I had not felt.

Observe girls taking a shower--in secret, of course.

[GuGu]

ummm.... i was told that when i was about 5 or 6 years old... i... got in my dad's car, which was already started by my dad cause he was leaving for work or something but he ran back inside cause he forgot something, and i somehow backed up into a tree.

[milKBoi]

i used to steal people's lemon on this lemon tree.. wait i still do it now hehe
Besides that i was a perfect good boy

[Bubblegum]

I played with matches while my parents were away at work but I'm glad that I didn't start any fires. *pats chest*

[jiang bao]

Observe girls taking a shower

I was like, yeah you da man.

--in secret, of course.

Then I saw this part, and I was like, oh.

Let down.

[remember_Cedric]

A Kusu Island documentary had reminded me of how I had "kidnapped" a young turtle from my school during my elementary days, secretly kept it in my room in a obscure corner and how I had starved it to death because I totally forgot about this secret pet of mine after returning from a one-week junior camp.

T_T Sorry, turtle.

I ran crazy around the old Adelaide airport on 1st June 1989 when I first set foot in Australia. I got loose from my parents as they were at the baggage carousel. Hopped onto a baggage trolley and went whizzing around the area for around 30 mins before they caught me. It was not easy as I was quite a small child back then and could duck under all the barriers and scream at high pitch. I also had round watery eyes so everyone forgave me.

... I also had round watery eyes so everyone forgave me.

Reminds me of Puss In Boots from Shrek.


**On another note**

I have a few notorious things that I did when I was a child. If cops were to arrest children unter 9, I would be one of them. I was 8 and stole my first makeup set. It was a small lip color pallette and I hid it under my sleeve, undetected by the workers and my caucasion grandma.

I stole alot in my younger years. I was so bad back then.

Another notorious thing: I beat up a boy in 4th grade. He was a bragger and said he could beat anyone up and even girls. I stepped up the challenge so during recess, we fought. It was like you see in the movies. We kick, jump kick, and threw punches at each other. All I remember was kicking him in the stomach and he fell to the ground. Of course, the teachers saw it and we got in trouble. It's funny because not too long ago, I saw him again and talked to him about this incident. He remembered us fighting but didn't remember the outcome. LOL.
