10 Ridiculous Fears 20-Somethings Have

We are all scared of some things, more than others but let me tell you, I am soo scared of the following 10 things it is not even real...

10) THE DENTIST

Okay, I do not appreciate someone putting their fingers in my mouth, scraping that sharp tool across my teeth and telling me I need to continue to brush and floss even though I do it a million times a day.

9) MONKEYS

This is many peoples spirit animal but come on now, I had one terrify me as a child at the Fort Worth Zoo that I do not want to be by them ever again.

8) THE DARK

Well really I am scared of the things in the dark not really the dark in general... who likes monsters anyways

7) MURDER SHOWS

CSI:Miami, 48 Hour or anything that relates to someone dying terrifies me. I am a big baby because who wants to watch how someone got murdered?

6) FAILING A CLASS

No one wants to fail any classes in their life and most definitely not one when I am a year from graduating..

5) BIG BODIES OF WATER

I am terrified of water because that's a great place to drown.

4) BOATS

Along with being terrified of the ocean,lakes and rivers there is no way you are getting me on a boat either.

3) SPIDERS

I will literally blast a spider to mars if I have to.. there is no way it is getting near me with out dying.

2) Cats

There are very few cats I can handle being around other than that, they scare me. They are so sneaky and can be very wild.

1) Last but definetly not least: CLOWNS

I know many many people are terrified of clowns and I can say I do not blame them one bit.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
