When I was about seven or eight years old, I believed that I was a dragon. When I was angry at someone at school, I would roar and growl at them. I also used to bite and I'd pretend that my jacket was my dragon wings and I'd pretend to fly.
Even though now I know that I'm a human, I'm still obsessed with dragons.
when they first taught us about the solar system at school i had a strange belief that a evrything that was happening around me was happening in every other planet.i thought that a girl who looked just like me existed in every planet.
I used to think that I was "part cat" when I was growing up, and me and my cousin used to play catwoman and batman. Lol. It was alot of fun, actually. My parents still tease me for thinking that I was part cat, and I insisted it was true until I was about 9 or 10 years old. I told everybody, and today I wish i didn't. I am so embarassed! I even used to eat CAT FOOD! It actually doesn't really taste that bad. I really like cats, still, and we have 3 of them! Lol.
Not my belief - My 5 year found a rock that he believes was a duck egg and that if he took care of it a baby duck would hatch from it. Well me not knowing that he thought that when he showed me his "duck" egg I said thats not a duck egg. Hearing my wifes immediate intake of breath, I shut up quickly. As I watched the tears welling up in his little brown eyes I quickly told him it was a small dragon egg much like the big one on the movie "Eragon". The happiness that came to his little face was very much worth it. I did tell him he had to prove to the little dragon that he dserved him and had to be good and take care of the egg. He skipped off with his dragon egg and put in the dvd, Eragon and talked to his dragon of why it should hatch right away. My wife asked me what was I going to tell him when his dragon did not hatch. I told her the dragon theory was way better than the duck theory. Plus it will give him a little responsiblity. Now I can tell her he will have a story to post here. :-)
I was completely sure I was going to be accepted into Hogwarts when I turned 11. I acted out scenes in which I got my letter; arriving on the Hogwarts Express; and meeting all of my new wizarding friends. I'm 14 now and It's still the only wish I have. I wish it was real...
I used to belief that mermaids lived in underground drains.
I used to believe that a stranger would kidnap me from my bedroom in the night so I made sure that my parents opened the curtains of the tv room so they could see when the stranger came with the ladder to climb up and take me.
i used ti believe when i blinked everyone turned into ninjas.
When I was young, the "Planet Of The Apes" film series was popular and I was into them in a big way. I used to think that I was the only "real" person on the planet and that all others were really gorillas like in the movies! They simply wore human costumes whenever I was around. Of course they were smart enough to know when I would be watching t.v. or movies, so they put on their costumes when they knew I would be watching. When they were alone and away from me, the masks came off.
I used to believe that when I slept over at my grandmother's house (on the 4th flour of a apartment building), Superman would come one day and give me his powers so I could take over his job as the young Superboy!
What do you want? I was 6 years old!
Up until the age of eight, I used to think all Sophies around the world formed a kind of sisterhood. They, of course, shared the same interests, the same mood, the same character. They worked undercover and they were oh so special
I had the exact same feeling about left-handed people except that they were even more special.
Believe it or not, I'm a left-handed Sophie!
I used to believe that I was a robot, because I have heard a sort of chirping sound from my head ...
I also believed that I was destinied for greatness and that all the people I met in my life would be interviewed to give an insight into the kind of person I was ...
and another thing I believed - I could get any woman I wanted, it was just a matter of me meeting them (actresses and models included) and them falling head over heels in love with me ...
apparently not.
I used to believe (and still kind of do)that life was like a virtual reality game and people would wake me up from it in the real world. If I put it back on though I wouldn't remember it.
There's always lots of films on TV about children who are adopted but that only come to know the truth about their parents when they're 10-12 years old. So, because of such films, I actually spent my younger years fearing that I might be adopted - and what a shame that would be, because I really liked my "parents"!
I thought that, until I reached the age of 10, I could never be sure that they were my real parents, because they would always lie to me about it. They would think I was too young to understand the situation and that I could be traumatised, and so they wouldn't tell me the truth no matter how hard I asked!
Apparently, I wasn't adopted after all...
i used 2 beleive i wuz an alien that had to save the world from "bad guys"
I used to believe that I could control the sun by moving a bowling pin (which I had won at a bowling alley) like a remote control :d
i used to believe that "the end of the world" is at the end of my street and when i was walking down the street i thougt that somebody is unrolling the carpet made of the world...;)
My parents were always big fans of Lord of the Rings and other books by Tolkien. One day, I stubled across a copy of "The Return of the King" complete with appendicies. I found the hobbit family trees, and was surprised to see my name on on of them (Diamond). We lived on Long Island, and I thought Cleave was another word for Island. All of these things clued me in; I was a hobbit born to human parents, and one day I would marry Pippin. I even told my classmates; so proud was I of my fate. Oddly enough, I ended up married to someone very much like Pippin.
When I was a very little, before i started school I truly believed that the whole world or at least what I knew of the world revolved around me. I thought that everything only happened when I was around. I thought when I wasn't there everthing just stopped. One day I stayed home from school and I was shocked and horrified to find out that cartoons were still going on on TV while I was not home. I found out the truth. I ended up with a kind of obsession for a short while of trying to find out what my mom and everyone else did when i was not there. If they were having fun without me.
I thought I was invisible when I was young, so in Kindergarten I would run around screaming in kids faces that no one could see me! I would dack them and run off with their pants coz I thought absolutely no one could see me. After getting a time out, I finally found out the truth. I was a stupid kid.
