I'm really afraid of anything poisonous. I always sniff my food if I'm traveling aboard and won't eat anything suspicious-looking/something I don't know. I'm also afraid of long needles, guns, dark places, mirrors in the dark and suspicious-looking foreigners (sorry.. that's just the way I am).
Oh, and one experience related to the dark places fear. It was about september, and I had been in a student council meeting which had taken a bit longer than expected. Mom picked me up from school, but she left me to the crossroads where I had left my bike. It was really dark, and the only source of light were the dimly lit streetlamps. I cycled as fast as I could, looking back every now and then. When I got near a big forest (the road I was driving was long and straight),
I looked back and there, in the light of that single streetlight, I saw a long shadow and it moved towards me with a fast speed. I nearly fainted and with
all my might I tried to cycle faster and faster, but suddenly I heard a snap, and I noticed I couldn't move the pedals at all (the chains had dislocated
- easy to fix but hard to stop the bike..), so I used the front brake.. and looked back.. and saw a tabby cat approaching me with a mouse in its mouth.
Damn, that was a relief! And so I fixed the chains and biked home.
