special powers

In my recovered 1st grade journal EXACT WORDS:
If you wish for something on a star, and shoot for with a laser, you get what you wish for!

I used to think I had the ability of telekinesis (moving objects with your mind). I don't know why I thought this, but one day I invited my friend over and tried to show her. Obviously, I couldn't do it. I just told her my powers weren't working.

When i was about 6 i would go to my brother's baseballs games and play with other kids who had siblings playing baseball. There was a big rock there and we were convinced that if you jumped off it you could fly for a little while if you really believed. So we would take turns "flying" off and i jumped pretty far so i thought i was a good believer. part of this may have come from the song "i believe i can fly"

i believe i can touch the sky, i think about it every night and day, spread my wings and fly away...

I used to believe I could fly. I used to share a room with my brother, and we had bunk beds. I had the top bunk. One night I had a dream, I was flying all around the world after I rubbed a magic genies lamp and wished to fly. I woke up and it all seemed so real. So, being the 5 year old I was, I jumped at least 7 feet on to the ground and popped all my knuckles on one hand INSTANTLY. MY face hit the ground and left a small bruise. That was the day I grew up

While pretend-erasing my brother with a small eraser, he told me he'd actually disappear if I used it on him.

When I was little, I used to believe that if people were touching you, even through clothes, they could tell what you were thinking.

I have no idea why.

After wathching Mary Poppins, I thought that if I opened an umbrella on a very windy day and jumped into air, I would fly away like Mary Poppins!

I was about 7 or 8 and I had watched the horror movie Carrie. It scared me out of my mind! It also had me convinced that i had the ability to blow things up with my mind and i was so scared that i was going to start killing people with my powers!

Anon

i used to believe that if i tryed hard enough i could turn in to a pather because i read a book about a boy who turned in to a tiger! i lay for hours on my bed scrunched up in the feetil position wishing as hard as i could, but to no avail.

When i was in 3rd grade i believed that i got magical powers from my dog yuki and that i could communicate with her when we opened the pantry door in the kitchen because there was a magical portal inside.

One time I went over to my friends house, and he has a very younger brother who never liked the peels of an apple. My friend got tired of peeling to apple so I told him to make something up. His brother was obsessed with becoming stronger, so we just told him the apple peals would make him as strong as a dinosaur... he believed us...

I always believed as a child that we were able to do more than what we were taught to do, eg: we could jump much higher, run at the speed of light have extra strength etc. I used to spend hours at the top of the stairs willing myself to jump to the bottom without touching a single step, i fell down them alot!
I also believed that what we saw wasnt really there and that there was more going on than we realised, we as humans when we are born are taught that this is just the way life is, uniformed, to my amazement The Matrix film was released and it was just as i had always believed!!
And then this craze Jump started, i rest my case.
