    Moogle How long did you believe?

    (SPOILER)In Santa!

    I remember I was about 9 or 10 years old. I wandered around my basement and stumbled upon one of my gifts hidden under a bed in the guest room down there. It was a brand new super nintendo. That's when I knew.

    It's okay if you still believe. That's why I kept it spoiler-marked!

    I was preety young when I knew, 5 or 6. I think I just sat there one day and worked it out logically that my parents did it all. And I have a big brother too. hahaha

    I think about 5ish maybe 6. Because being the youngest my siblings would tell me things and my mom was starting to get lazy about "from santa" boxes. She would just put them under the tree with the rest a week or so ahead of christmas. So of course I was like "Well santa doesn't come a week early! That's not right!" Of course the meaner older siblings would tell me he didn't exist.

    I remember the first year I ever saw Star Wars V, looking into the ceiling and asking Santa for a lightsaber! :O

    I was always told that Santa wasn't real, so never.

    I never really believed. I think I came to a definite conclusion on his lack of existence around 5.

    I don't remember what age I was specifically, but I know my two older brothers told me.

    Being the oldest child, I learned when I was 9. I sobbed myself to sleep for like an hour! I remember yelling at my parents:

    "I know the easter bunny is a fake, and even the tooth fairy! But SANTA? WHY!?"

    I don't remember how old I was but I decided that, even with the time zones in his favour, one man wouldn't be able to travel to every damn house on the planet. Therefore he's a fake.

    I think I was 9 or 10 when I figured out it couldn't be possible but I think it doesn't matter the whole Santa Claus deal is part of the magic of Christmas. If you've ever seen the excitement in children's faces, be it younger siblings or your own children, when they go to see what Santa has brought them. It really makes Christmas for me!

    On December, 1996, my great gramdmother on my mother's side who has now passed told me she heard Santa coming through the window. I told her that Santa didn't exist and that she should stop snorting crack. Okay, that second part didn't happen, but I did say Santa didn't exist. I suppose it was around then that I stopped believing.
