According to a survey of 30 students, the top five fears of BHS students are:
1. Spiders
2. Death
3. Clowns
4. Drowning in water
5. Breaking up with someone and getting a broken heart came in tied
Sophomore Macena Kaiser said her fears started when she was “picked up by a clown in Disney Land and they started running away with me.”
Others said things that everyone would suspect, of course spiders and death. Every once in a while answers like teeth, forests, storms, ticks, heights, murders, failing, etc. would come up.
“Swimming in rivers creeps me out,” said Freshman Wesley Sanderson. “I’m scared something is going to grab me, or I’m going to die.”
Some people actually end up getting help from a actually physiologist in order to over come a fear.
“Failing scares me, I am all about succeeding.” Senior Kala Czanstkowski said. “My parents struggled and I just know I don’t want that happening.”
“I’d have to say spiders, no reason why, everyone else says it, so why not?” said Freshman Nina Johnson.
Either you’ve experienced it, or seen movies with it, you know that one thing you don’t want anything to do with. People sometimes over come their fears. Others may end up getting help to try to over come one. All in all, everyone ends up finding a way somehow. Even with your interesting past experiences.
