OLD: Flapping to Levitate / Frustrated / Captain America

I have a memory of being able to levitate if I jumped as high as I could in one place and flapped my arms. I don't know how long I subconsciously believed this, only reflecting upon how absurd it was when I almost said it out loud when I was not quite a teenager.

When I was very young, I somehow thought I invented the word 'frustrated' as well. I can only attribute this to some delusional dream.

Probably more coincidence than dream delusion was when I found out my action figure that I named 'Captain America' was actually a super hero named Captain America. I still feel weird when I see that character. I don't plan on seeing the movie.

OLD: Lucid Flying at Day Care

When I was in elementary school my mom owned a business and could not watch me during the days of summer vacation. I would go to Gymnastics Plus for daycare, which was essentially running around in the gym all day. In high school I had a dream that I was back at Gymnastics Plus for some reason, and the whole gym was replaced with a large indoor pool. I realized this was a dream as G+ did not have an indoor pool. I preceded to fly around and dive in and out of the water until I woke up. This is the only time, to my knowledge, I have ever dreamed lucidly.

Bros Before Books

I was in a high school English class with my friend Jon K. that was being taught by David Schwimmer. Jon was writing between the margins of the 'in-class use' books - as in using them like notebook paper - and putting them back on the shelf. When Mr. Schwimmer found out he freaked out and had certain trusted class members - former high school classmates Annie K and Christina B. - write a "Who and Why" explanation on the chalk board and they both accused me because they think I'm an asshole. The rest of the class agreed I probably did it. I was shocked because I didn't know so many people didn't like me.

I proved it wasn't me by comparing my writing to the writing in the books. No one could deny my handwriting was very different. I was happy to be off the hook, but I knew Jon was getting closer to being caught. He was quiet in class though, and I did not think anyone would tattle on him.
