My Fears ...

Have you ever though about what you fear the most? I did this last night, and I realized, some of the things I am afraid of are completely rediculous.

Here are my top fears:

1. Birds - they freak me out so badly, it's probably because I was chased by a swan when I was younger because I threw french fries at it... Birds are not the word.

2. Burps - I find it disgusting ... Although everyone obviously does it. My fear is not of the burp itself, but I can't be around someone who does it because I'm scared I will breathe it in.

3. Lakes/ Fish - I can't swim in deep lakes becuase I'm afraid of what might be at the bottom of it, mainly because I watched Jaws when I was really little, which leads me to my next fear

4. Sharks - I am terrified of sharks, not that anyone really likes them. But just like watching Jaws or any other movie in the ocean makes me literally start shaking.

5. The Dark - I am so afraid with the dark I have to sleep with my TV on, and have my basement light on so that it isn't dark outside of my room, this is also probably because I watched way to many movies when I was younger :P

6.Heights - I also have a huge fear of heights. I can't explain it but I just am. But I love rollercoasters and stuff like that but I hate having to go up the hill at the beginning.

7. Thunderstorms/ The Weather - My fear of thunderstorms kind of links back to my fear of the dark, my fear comes from the lights being shut off because of thunderstorms or like extreme weather, it just freaks me out.

8. Public Speaking - I get so afraid to speak infront of people it is rediculous. I shake, and have trouble actually speaking, and sometimes, I tend to just break out and start laughing, its terrible.

30 hour famine.

The 30 Hour Famine was created to help raise awareness about hunger throughout the world. Every day hunger kills 8 000 kids under the age of 5. In general, it kills more than 24 000 people every day. A person dies every 10 seconds from hunger... it is 100% preventable ...We are the fortunate ones, not every counrty has clean water, food, shelter, money etc.

This was designed to help people raise awareness, fundraise and stop hunger throughout the world.

I am participating in the 30 hour famine. So far it is not too difficult, but I can almost garuntee you by this time tomorrow I will probably have wanted to quit a billion times. *But I won't* Everyone deserves to live a full life and not go to bed at night feeling weak and hungry, so let's stop an epidemic that was 100% preventable in the first place.
