It is normal for adolescents to fantasise and indulge in hero worship so long as it is not indulged to extreme levels. Daydreaming is a common phenomenon especially among teenagers where they create their own world of fantasy and like to think of things which are removed from reality. Something that happened in Sophie’s case. She is a school-going girl and fantasizes about Danny Casey, an Irish football player. Her ambitions and dreams were all a figment of her imagination and portray her as a very impractical and unrealistic girl. She is well aware of her middle-class background and the fact that after her schooling, she and Jansie (her friend) were earmarked for a biscuit factory. Still, she would dream of opening a boutique, becoming a fashion designer or an actress, etc. And would lose sight of everything around her.
