* A PICTURE OF YOU AND A FAMILY MEMBER * 
 I'm sure there might be more pics of me and family members (cousins) but I was too lazy to creep on people's Facebook or blogs to find them. So, the first one is of Matt and I. I think it was at a birthday party last year, but I'm not sure. This picture is a typical one of us... he's always picking on me and he really does love me. You can see that he's taller than me too... yeah... my LITTLE brother is bigger than me. Oh well. I still love him. 
This one is of Sarah and I at the movies. I can't remember for the life of me what movie we saw though....was it Clash of the Titans? I think it was that. We went to Olive Garden for lunch, then that movie afterwards. It was a lot of fun to spend time with her. It always is! We lived together for almost a year after we got out of high school, I was her maid of honor at her wedding, and we have an ongoing competition of who is Kaylin's favorite auntie. (Kaylin told me that Sarah was her favorite, but I don't believe her! HAHA, just kidding Sarah... you've gotta be someone's fave!) Sarah has always been there for me through thick and thin and is a super fun cousin to hang out with. Her and I like similar things like: shopping, eating out, going to the movies, watching movies, same music, and playing with the Murphy kids. She's one of my best friends and I love her dearly. Thanks for being such a great friend and cousin to me Sarah. I only wish we saw each other a lot more than we do. Love you cuz!

* A PICTURE OF SOMETHING YOU'RE AFRAID OF*
Being alone! I am scared to be alone. I hate being home alone, driving at night alone, sometimes sleeping alone, going to the movies alone, going shopping alone, and having the people close to me not being there; which therefore makes me be alone. It's a sad feeling, but I don't like to be alone for a long time. I mean, of course we all need our personal alone time, but I live for people's attention and interaction with people.
MICE! I hate the way they look, I hate the way I can hear them sometimes but never see them, I hate the way when I do see them it freaks me out, and I hate the sick feeling I feel when I see or hear them. Just plain gross! EW!
Ladders! I try to avoid going on ladders at all costs. Especially ones like the one in this photo. Ones that are more stationary I could be fine with going up maybe 2-3 rungs... but ladders like this... I DON'T THINK SO!
Heights! And also... probably on a tight rope over tons of traffic between two buildings. (I've never tried it but assuming I'm afraid of heights... probably NEVER going to happen.) I do like going on some roller coasters that are high up though. BUT... ones that stop at the top or hang you off a building or an edge of some sort... NO THANK YOU! I just don't like looking down when I am far up.
This picture doesn't really display what I'm afraid of but it was the best I could do. I think it looks like I would be afraid of aliens, trees, or the dark. If you guessed the last one, you would be correct-o-mundo! I am indeed afraid of the dark. I am 23 years old and I sleep with a night light. Also, I live in the basement and it's fairly dark going from the stairs to my room. So... instead of turning on every light before I get to my room, I've got two night lights; one in the hall and one at the bottom of the stairs. And also, the one in my room. I also have to sleep with my baby blanket for comfort. No matter where I am, that blanket comes with me. And yes, I have taken it to Canada! One time I took it into a movie theater because I wanted the blanket to comfort me. By the way, the movie was Black Swan. (not that scary, tbh!)

On that note, scary movies! Totally afraid of them! My blanket will always be there if I am watching a scary movie. And as if my dreams weren't scary enough, I don't need scary movies to make them more scary. By the way, in my dreams... I kill people. People from my past, like old friends in grade school, friends from a few years back, exes, and even family members. Yes, I am a freak, so scary movies... I don't need 'em!
Getting in a car accident! That just plain freaks me out! That picture is just so scary to me! I couldn't even imagine being in an accident, a really serious one! I would have a panic attack for sure and have some sort of post traumatic stress afterwards, because I've had this fear of getting into an accident for so long. I see on T.V. that accidents happen A TON, and I am just so fearful. It's scary to think about.
AND... this.... REALLY?
