17．When young，I dreamed of becoming many things．I wished I was an astronaut going up into space，finding new planets and jumping around in a cool space suit．I imagined being a cowboy in the having gun fights and wearing stylish cowboy boots．I pretended to be a famous footballer，using my skills to score lots of goals．I love being able to play the role of somebody，even just for a short time，to try to realize what it might be like to walk in their shoes．
Looking back，I realize that imagination is a wonderful thing．I was able to create entire environments and scenarios （劇情梗概） in my head，using nothing more than my brain，and to be able to adapt things in my everyday surroundings to fit the specific story of the day．Growing up with brothers and sisters also helped， as it meant that even bigger stories could be created，combining our ideas and putting our thoughts into action．It also allowed for more varieties in the story，as sometimes I could be the hero while on other occasions，I would be the bad guy．
One of my all-time favorite memories as a kid was recreating the Indiana Jones character in my back garden．I played the role of Indiana Jones，with my younger sister as my assistant and my brother as the evil man．We used everything in our garden，from the path to the fence，as part of the storyline to create obstacle that needed to be overcome，and we would keep the story going for hours!
My personal favorite was Indiana Jones and the Stolen Easter Eggs，where my brother hid small chocolate eggs around and my sister and I had to find them by answering questions or solving a puzzle．It was difficulty but eventually we found all the eggs and shared them together．
