Last night watching fear factor was horrible. If I had to be locked in a small case with 500 spiders I think I would have died first. No way!!! Some of the other things they do on that show no problem: rats, snakes, insects, slime, bring it on.

So what is your greatest fear???

I hate spiders. If I see one, I have to kill it right away cuz I don't want it running around loose in my house.

I didn't see needles or extremely sharp objects. That's why I'll never work in the field of espionage or military (Like I would do the military anyway)... If I was captured, they'd just have to brandish a needle and say, "Look, truth serum" and they wouldn't even have to shoot me up.. I'd tell them whatever they wanted to know.
Oh, and spiders. Occasionally I put them outside, but when they show up in my bedroom I show no mercy.

I fear nothing! Well except when I am alone in the dark. I don't fear the darkness, I fear what it hides. Also I don't like being around those life like dolls. I always have an ominous feeling I'm being watched. Ever since I watched Puppet Master when I was five years old.

Well I voted spiders on the list, because I do fear them, though only really big ones. Small ones or daddy longlegs don't frighten me. I can't kill them though, I'm afraid they'd run up the broom and get on me, so I have to get someone else to get rid of them for me . It's the fact that they might get on me and run about that scares me, not the chance that they might bite me, which is why I'm scared of non-venomous huntsmen that get into our house. I don't like most insect that might jump on me, like grasshoppers; also toads because they're so disgusting and they do have a habit of jumping towards people rather than away from them.

Things that I fear that weren't on the list are public speaking, failure, having to make small talk with a lot of people I don't know. I don't let mt fears stop me from doing things if I have to, but I don't look forward to them
