When i was younger i believed, one day i'm gonna fly, all i have to do, is get a whole bunch of feathers, and glue them to cardboard, and then stick it to my arms, and then i'd somehow fly.

I believed for quite a while that if you couldn't see, you couldn't be seen. Also, everything (to this day) is less scary if watched through a small space. read: a tiny crack in the blanket thats wrapped tightly around your head. :D

When I would shower, the water would run down my arm and appear to come out of my fingers. For the longest time I thought I had special water powers and that as I got older, I would be able to control them outside of the shower lol

Once I read a Goosebumps book (by R.L. Stine) in which a girl finds some secret ingrediant as well as the recipe and spell for a dough which you eat for flying powers. After I read it, I was convinced that if I got the ingrediants/recipe correct (dough ingrediants except the secret powder which came with the book) then I could make the dough and get to fly.
Of course, I spent months wishing I had that powder. Unfortunately I never found it, but I'm secretly still waiting for MY copy of that book. lol.

You know how when you buy new clothes, the sales tag is attached by this plastic thing, with one side that looks like a T? Well I used to cut that plastic thing in half and touch my sister's arm with it while making a "sssssssssssss" sound because I thought I was sucking out her juice. I called it a "general expexpius".

I used to beleve that everybody except for me had the power to read my mind, so every time i was in a large crowd, i would focus my thoughts on things that would scare them so much, they would never want to read my mind again.

I thought I had X-ray vision and could talk to animals and they could understand me.

I believed I could fly if I ran around fast enough and flapped my arms hard enough and jumped high enough eventually I would be able to soar into the skies.

When I was ten, I started to notice the little bits of dust in the air floating everywhere. I was completly convinced I could see air.

My dad had this way of whistling that I never could master. He said he was whistling 'through his teeth.' I pictured him having these tiny holes in his teeth that I didn't have, and that's why he could whistle through his teeth and I could not.

When I was little my stepfather and I used to play karate but without actually knowing any karate. I thought I was so good because I could beat him up that I then went around telling the other kids I knew karate and could fight grown ups. So one day one of the kids decided to test my skills. He kicked my ass and I was shocked to learn that I didn't actually know karate.

When I was about 4, I had a dream that I was flying all over the house. The next day when I woke up, I kept jumping off of all the furniture trying to fly. I eventually concluded that the furniture was too low to jump off of, so i managed to climb onto the roof. We can all guess what happened next...the neighbors still think I'm tottally and completely nuts...i hang out on my roof now with my friends...they all peer out their windows just to make sure I don't have another trip to the hospital...oopsies

I used to believe that when I squinted at a light these light beams (think light sabers) were shooting out toward me and that I was the only person in history able to do that.

I used to believe that i could move things with my mind. I remember at a wedding i went to when i was 5 i was moving balloons with my mind. They were floating in the air and when i commanded that they come down they would. It was only later when i watched the wedding video that i realized that the balloons were coming down because they were near an air vent. lol

I used to do this thing where I thought "I have to do _______ or the world will blow up." like "I have to knock on this door 3 times or the world will blow up." I don't know how that got started but I thought that if I stopped telling myself that the world would blow up and if I didn't do the stuff, the world would blow up.

Whenever my mom and I crossed the street together, she told me to hold her hand. When I asked her why, she told me that the people in the cars couldn't see me, meaning that I was short and therefore couldn't be seen. However, I thought that she meant that I had the amazing power of becoming invisible whenever I crossed the street.This meant that I was free to make weird faces at innocent people whenever I stepped off the curb. After I discovered that this wasn't true, I lived in fear of random people coming to get me for making faces at them.
