i'm different

I used to be positive that when I left the room, my parents would turn into glowing green skeletons. They would then begin to plot against me. I used to try to catch them transforming all the time! Opening and closing the door on them real fast didn't work. :(

When i was younger, my brother always used to tease me...(like they do) We would argue about who mum would love more...and one day, to really pee me off...he turned round and said "Mummy doesn't love you...you gooseberry!" I don't know why...but from then on i always thought i was a cabbage pacth kid, but found under a gooseberry bush!

I used to believe that my life was a giants dream and that when he/she woke up then I would dissapear. I then came to the conclusion that my dreams were or another world which dissapeared when I awoke. I used to pray as hard as I could that he/she would not awake and make me vanish.

I used to believe that the whole world was full of aliens and i was the only human and that when I left the room everyone would urn to there "normal alien self"

When I was little I used to believe I was the only Jackie in the world. My bubble was popped when a new girl came to school named Jackie. I was so mad at her.

Jackie

I used to believe that everybody saw things completely differently - like, I was the only one who could see humans as humans... and maybe other people saw them with tails and stuff. Don't ask.

When I was young, I was blessed with a very good memory. At 5 I was able to remember and recite poems, songs, and stories after only hearing them once. I could play checkers with the best of them. Because of this gift, I believed that I was not of this world. I believed that I would not grow old like people of earth. I believed that when I got big, I would be stronger than people of earth. I believed that when I got bigger, I would have special powers, like closing my eyes and seeing what was happening somewhere else. I also believed that when I got big, I would be able to leave my bed and go outside and play. Then, I turned 6!

When I was small I played with doll houses and so I believed that we were just dolls being played with and up in the sky where we couldn't see them was a few kids playing doll house.

Brandy

When I was little, I used to wish that when I woke up the next morning, I would have shrunk to the size of a thumb, or that I would have changed into a squirrel. I would imagine what it would be like in school etc. I was convinced that this would happen one day.

when i was in 3rd grade, not even 5 yrs ago, i had watched to movie The Exorcist and got totally paranoid that i was going to get posessed. well i got so paranoid that i thought if i said the word Chobosoko, i would be posessed.

When I was little, around three, I was really concerned about what I wanted to be when I grew up. So, one day, I stood in front of the mirror and said to it
"I am going to be pretty, I am going to be atheletic, I am going to be smart" I said these things over and over. When I did go to school, it happened to be a very small school and I became my main three wishes compared to everyone else there. I believed this until year 8 when I went to a bigger high school and relized it mustn't have worked. I never gave my secret away though.

When I was a little girl, I used to believe that we were all puppets. Whenever I did something wrong I would tell my Mom it wasn't me they made me do it. I don't know where I got this idea, but, I believed it so strongly that I would lay in my bed and try to quickly swat at the air to feel the strings. Silly I know!

Ang

i used to get paranoid sometimes that some people could read my mind ( didnt truly belive it), but just to be safe, i'd sorta, make excuses in my own mind after thinking something potentially embarrasing or offensive.

Brain-shy

when i was younger i used to believe that i was special, didnt have any special powers but i knew one day i would be someone who would save this world....funny thing is i still believe it

Resic

I used to (and still do a little bit) that I was the only person who actually existed. That everyone else was just an illusion in my mind and that my whole exsistence might just be a dream. I could actually be in a coma or something like that. Then the Matrix came out and made it worse.

I had myself convinced that everyone sees colours differently. Like, just because I see something as the colour orange, maybe to someone else the colour orange looks like what the colour blue looks like to me. Etc etc.

I out-logiced myself as I couldn't figure out what colour is the TRUE colour for being a certain colour. So I decided that the way I see colours is correct becuase the name of the colour sounds nice with the colour that I see.

When I think about it, I still can't reason that out properly, and I'm 18!

Lindsey

One time I overheard my Mom and a neighbour talking about a teacher at our school being a "homosexual". Later I asked her what that meant and she said that he "fell in love with men, not women". I was in love with a boy from my class at the time and having learned a fancy word I kept telling my friends I was a homosexual.

I'm a girl by the way.

Trinity

When I was a kid, I was a bit of a tomboy. My lovely brother and father absolutely convinced me that I was born a boy but since my parents already had a son and really wanted a daughter, they had cut off my... genitalia in order to make me a girl. I completely believed that and was really angry at my parents for making me into a girl against my will. :-)
