Heights--------------------------------------------------------------- Not that bad when you're rock-climbing without a harness (just like 20 ft), but once, I was in the 118th floor of a building. It had a glass floor, and I was terrified. Spiders--------------------------------------------------------------- Their beady, soulless eyes are creepy, but I don't care much about them. If I see one, I just kill it (sorry, spider fanatics). Public speaking---------------------------------------------------- Sometimes I stumble over words, and I cannot, for the life of me, pronounce "uncomfortable." The ocean----------------------------------------------------------- I'm an okay swimmer, so I'll survive unless I'm too far from land. Failure---------------------------------------------------------------- It's so depressing to know that if you'd stayed up just an hour longer to study, you could've gotten that question right. If you hadn't procrastinated and actually took notes, you wouldn't have gotten a C-. But my parents don't care much, so it's not bad. Well, bad test scores somehow reach the recycling bin before they see. Losing a loved one------------------------------------------------ No. Just no. I do not want a loved one to die. If my friend moves away, I'll still be in touch with them, but if a family member dies, I don't know what I'll do. Growing older------------------------------------------------------ It's not that scary to me, but I actually want to be legally able to move to my own house or apartment, because I will explode if my brothers try to break in my room again. Cockroaches------------------------------------------------------- I once found a cockroach in a bathroom, and it ran around and made skittery noises on the ground. My mom eventually stepped on it, and it made a crunch noise. Needles-------------------------------------------------------------- It's satisfying when a needle pokes in my skin. It tickles and itches a bit, but the sensation is quite pleasant. Darkness------------------------------------------------------------ Sometimes I get shivers when I get up for water but something behind me creaks, but I'm good with darkness. Holes----------------------------------------------------------------- Does it mean deep, dark, ominous holes in the ground that reek of horror and death? I have never seen one, never plan to, and definitely will be afraid of holes if I ever see that. Class reportings--------------------------------------------------- I don't understand what that means, so I assumed it meant writing a report on something and presenting it to the class. Small spaces------------------------------------------------------- I like small spaces. They're comforting. Strangers------------------------------------------------------------ My parents have taught me to never talk to strangers, so I have some fear drilled into me, but as long as they're not offering me candy that's in their car, I'm generally fine with them. Clowns--------------------------------------------------------------- What was the original point of clowns? To give little kids nightmares? Bye!
