Conception

I thought the idea of creating the world was interesting, if problematic and slightly terrifying.  The idea that a person, such as your mother, exists only when you conceive the idea of them was really interesting.  However, I think you would have to make yourself crazy by thinking like that, so I can understand why philospohers would look for loopholes out of it.

Towards the beginning of the year, my friends and I had this really silly joke about how one by one we were going to turn twenty and just stop existing, but since I was the baby, I was going to be just sitting in the dorm for a month talking to my friends who weren't actually there and looking completely crazy.  I guess it makes sense if you think about it in the way where people only exist when you think they exist, but I really don't see how that could be true.
