When I was young, like 4 or 5, I could see what I thought were a whole bunch of little dots. In elementary school we learned some basic stuff about atoms and cells and since everything was made up of them and my teacher said they were too small to be seen w/o a microscope, I truely believed that I was the only one in the world who could see atoms and cells. Turns out i needed glasses. Go figure.
