Everyone is afraid of something- heights, spiders or flying
just to mention a few. What do you fear the most? Write a
story about a situation in which you had to face your fear.
Indicate what happened and what you did to overcome the
fear or if it still frightens you today.

hmmmmm.... i cant really say im a person who is afraid of certain things because there a very few to none things that seem to scare me. something i can sy im a total chicken about is - roller coasters....... i like looking at them but not riding them :) ill ride them if they have some sort os water included of its completly in dark. ok soo here my story..... (before this i did not at all ride any type of coasters) ok i was about 9 or 10 years old i went with my parents to mgm studio in orlando, i dad is like no other , he rides things no matter how high or how fast it goes, so in mgm they have a roller coaster called " the rock and roll - roller coaster" . we were passing by and my dad decided we should ride my greatest fear , i begged and cryed so we wouldnt get me on that ride , he didnt take no for an answer , telling me that once i ride it ill love it want to continue riding it the whole day. 5 4 3 2 1 !!!!! the number counted down the lauch of the coaster releseing into pitch dark madness of loops and going from 80-110 mph , it was an unforgettable expiercns ..... at the end my dad was right , i rode that coaster about five times that day and in other trips to mgm i look forward to going on that ride with who ever is up for the challege :)
i guesss that extra push from my dad has given me the "guts" to at least ride pitch dark and water roller coasters -( im still working in getting myself to conquer my fear of " dry , open ' roller coasters)...
