What is a fun fact about yourself that people might not know?

During my childhood, I won a bronze and gold medal. I thought it was real gold so I carried it with me all over the place and was so attached to it. My aunt told me one day it was not pure gold and I still carried it with anyone because I had a deep connection with it. I realized that it was my first prize so I cherished it and did not let it affect me that it wasn’t real gold
