I might as well write about the first thing on the list, my fear. I have never really liked the dark and ever since I was a child I saw things in the the shadows of the night that my imagination seems to always be capable of molding into monsters or ghosts. When I was little I would always have someone with me when I was walking around the house at night until I turned on the lights. I was also scared to turn of the lights sometimes before I fell asleep. I feel as though something is behind. It was the worst after watching Mummies with my mom and a family friend when I was about 6 years old; I couldn't fall asleep by myself for a couple of months... Even now it takes a lot for me to even consider watching a scary movie at all.
