BOO - Rachel Bragg

When debating which of the prompts to use, I considered the first one, but lets be honest. If the zombies attacked, I would be the first to die because I would just cry and hide in the corner, thinking that would somehow save me. So it wouldn't be much of a plan, just an intense amount of panic until a zombie ate me. This prompt probably wouldn't be very long.

So I'll just talk about what scares me, because there are lots of things.

Spiders. And most small bugs. You would think that something so small wouldn't scare so many people but I'm going to try and explain my fear. When I see a spider, I instantly expect there to be more where it came from. So the idea of thousands of spiders living under my bed is terrifying. I also hate ants for this reason. I'm not necessary scared of ants, I just don't like how when I sit in the grass for longer than two seconds I find ant bites all over my legs later. I just hate tiny things that can crawl on me without being aware of it. The fact that I can't see small bugs like spiders unless they are right in front of my face scares me.

I have always been afraid of the idea of driving a car. I am fine riding with other people, but thinking about having that kind of responsibility for the lives of everyone in the car is insanely frightening. Now that I have practiced driving a bit the fear is slowly fading, but it is still present. I'm just a nervous driver.

This last one is kind of ironic because I'm going to have to face it in a little over a week. Public speaking. I can't explain in words how much I fear talking I front of other people under pressure. It's hard for me to explain to people how I react under this pressure because I simply don't remember. My brain gets locked and I forget how to speak like a normal human. Sometimes it's better than others, but it is just not a fun experience for me.

My fears are numerous so there was a few of them, thanks for reading.
