When I was a kid, I convinced myself that I was psychic by staring at a ball of crumpled tissue paper and 'making' it move.
It was windy that day.
My brother had figured out to watch the oncoming traffic to see when their traffic light changed. So he totally impressed me with his super powers when he waved his hands and said "Green light now!" and the light would change. It took me some time to figure it out.
I used to beleive I had a super-power of strength and speed when I touched my neck with my two fingers on my right hand. Like when I was in a race with the neigborhood kids I would touch my neck and 'get a burst of speed'. Yeah, I was quite a nut.
I used to believe I was an android after seeing the movie D.A.R.Y.L.L. I even thought of a cool name from my own name with dots in it. I used to think my parents repaired me at night when I was sick, in a secret computer room and they didn't want me to know. (Or anyone else, since I was a secret operation)
When i was a child, would make vocalize at as high a pitch as i could. When i would not make any sound at all, i assumed that i was producing ultrasonic pitches and that only dogs could hear me.
I used to believe that I could fly like Superman if I had the right cape and got a good running start.
When I was about 7 I used to believe that I was the only person in the world that could blink.
When I was younger, and got my little brother is this too, we'd gather feathers and tie them around with a rubber band. We'd flap around the front yard and jump, hoping to fly. I thought if we collected enough, we could fly like the birds! We must have looked really stupid! lol!
When I was little, I used to think that if I sucked in really hard and held my breath, I would be as thin as paper. I loved to scare my mom back then so when she came to tuck me in I would do that under the covers. I was so upset every night when she saw me.
I used to believe that if you brushed your teeth enough, they would shine so brightly it would cause a supernova and then you could turn into a mermaid. (I was obsessed with mermaids at the time and really wanted to be one.) I spent hours at a time brushing my teeth and got really disappointed when nothing happened.
when i was a child i used to beleave that all humans could breathe under water and had simply forgot how. i figured we could breathe by using our ears insted of our mouth or nose, i tried this for years with no avail.
when I was little i believed people read my mind, and that you had to turn a certain age, before you could read other persons minds
I used to believe i could lay eggs. My brother and my sister used to make me sit down on the floor and act like a chicken with my eyes closed and they would put an egg behind my back and id open my eyes and see the egg. Whenever i tried tyo do it when they weren't there and it didnt work i would cry.
I used to take tennis rackets and tape cardboard paper feathers on them and then I would flap them really hard and try and fly. Since I did this in the front yard, it certainly amused the neighbors.
You know how you can slightly cross your eyes and everything appears blurry or double? I used to think that I was the only one who could do that and when I did, everyone saw what I was seeing. I remember doing it and waiting for people to look confused!
When I was 9 or so, one of my favorite video game characters was a girl with black wings. For some reason, I started to believe I was growing wings like hers! I thought I saw 2 blackish purple stripes on my back where they would grow in. I marked a day on my calender when I thought they would poke out, and the night before I did a lot of somersalts knowing that I wouldn't be able to anymore, growing wings and all. I was so disappointed the next day...
when i was little (3-10) people only exsisted when i saw them. if i wasnt there to see them then they werent really around or anywhere!
I thought I could blow up my hand by putting your thumb in your mouth and blowing(that happened in a cartoon) I did this, and was convinced my hand was a little bigger.
i used to believe my wishes come true when i have this furry cloth plant. so i wished that a bee would sting my sister's butt...... it did :)
i still believe this :(
I used to think that if I put my hands around my eyes real close...along with blinking my eyes really fast and moving my hand like a movie projector alongside my head would make everything I saw stay in my head forever...like a home movie.
