body functions: special powers

when i was younger, i used to think that i could fly. my playground had a hill by one side of it, and for ages all i did was run off the edge of the playground and launch myself into mid air, and obviously fall to the ground. it was only when some even younger children, laughed at me for doing so, that i stopped *blush*

Once I had a dream where if i ran real hard and jumped id fly and then i flew around my neighborhood and then for a few months i told kids i could fly and thoiught i culd fly

When I was about 10 years old I used to believe that if I stared directly at the sun I would get some kind of super-vision (because of retinic impression). Luckily, I stopped doing that after a few days... now I'd be blind!

My daughter was always trading her lunches at school for less healthy snack foods... On day I casually mentioned ato her that most mommies had a special power called "Mommy Radar" and if she lied to me, I'd turn it on and know if she was lying or not...

I then asked her if she ate all her lunch up, and she said YES... I asked her if she ate all HER lunch up, or did she trade it, and she said NO... she ate it all up. I then told her I was gonna turn on MY "Mommy Radar" and see if she was telling me the truth, and she started to cry and told me she had atually traded her sandwich for a Jello Pudding pack.

I actually KNEW shedidn't eat her sandwich because there was no sandwich wrapper in her lunch bag, but for years, she thought I had "Mommy Radar" LOL!!!

When I was very young, I once held my forearm vertically right in front of my eyes. I could still see ahead, and I figured that I can see through my own body parts. I told this to my family, and they just laughed and told me to turn my arm horizontal. I did and I couldn't see any more, but I didn't understand why that was.

When I was 8 years old I believed that a human could fly if he realy believed in it...
So while I was waiting for one of my freinds I took few steps and yumped- flying 2 meters forvard(in horizontal position!),down the staircaise,...I landed on my tummy...it vas painful... but you know I don`t regret it!=)

I used to think that if I squinted my eyes, that people that appeared dark were evil, and people that appeared somewhat light were good. Suffice to say, I really hated my Grade Three class, so technically it DID work.

I used to believe that I would turn into Miss PacMan if I played the game enough. This kinda scared me because every time I went to the arcade I would play the Miss PacMan game.

When I was in primary school I knew this kid two years younger than me who believed that he could fly. Every recess he would run up and down the playground flapping his arms and believing that he could fly. He even built up a following of children who would run after him flapping their arms madly in an attempt to take off. It was fun to watch.

i once had a dream that, after a running start, i was able to fly a few feet over the sidewalk in front of my house. the dream seemed so real to me that for a while i actually beleived i could do it.

I used to have dreams that I could walk around in the air about half a metre off the ground. It happened so much that I got confused and thought I could really do it. I remember jumping off stuff in the garden and being mighty disappointed that I'd lost that power.

When i was little i thought that if you stared in the same place for a really long time withought blinking (in the dark) that a fourth dimension would open up. I also thought we lived in the fourth dimension.
I would try and my eyes would dry out.

There was a ledge outside my house that my cousin and I would climb upon, flap our arms and yell "Peter Pan, Peter Pan, teach my how to fly!" It was a constant disappointment when we landed on the pavement. This went on for some time. We just thought he wasn't listening.

One night, when I was about 4-5, I had a nightmare and I went into my parents room and I eventually fell asleep in their bed. I dreamed about flying. The next morning, lo and behold, I woke up in my own bed! I firmly believed that I could fly in my sleep and when I was told that my dad carried me back to my bed, I refused to believe it! I realised how silly this was a short time later.

When I was around 5 or 6 I came home with a bad report card. It was cloudy and looked like it was about to storm. When I got home my mom looked at my report card and then yelled "JESSE!" loudly and at the same time a very large lightning bolt flashed. I thought that my mom could control weather and because I was her son I thought that I could too by yelling my name. Three months later I was playing in my backyard in a snow storm with my friend. Remembering what happened previously I said "watch this" and yelled my name. Strangely, at the same time I yelled a powerful gust of wind blew me onto my face into the snow. I reasoned it was because I was too young to control my powers.

When I was little, I believed eating spinich would make me strong like popeye, so I used to force it down my neck. One day I was walking along the beach when I saw a 'rock', i picked it up and to my surprise I broke it on two, I told all my family who were ahead. I was so pleased with myself until I was told it was a hard horse poo!
