A childhood belief about i'm different

In 3rd grade, I began reading the "Unicorns of Balinor" series. From that point on, I believed that my friend, Molly, and myself were truly unicorn princesses who'd been sent to this dimension to protect the Earth from evil. We even believed that we'd have dreams of "Atalanta," like the main character did in the series.

Then, when I was in 4th grade, my friends and I used to believe that we "owned pet unicorns." We would even name them! Sometimes we even held races where we'd run across the field during recess, trying to out-canter the other. Later that year, we ended up getting into a huge fight about who owned the most unicorns, when in reality all we were doing was listing numerous names that we liked for a pet. (We got to somewhere over 400 altogether! Crazy, ain't it?) Haha, childhood dreams...
