On Fear.

May 01, 2012 20:40

There aren't many things I'm afraid of. Like, I decidedly dislike needles being poked into me. But I don't mind small or high places, I love high speed vehicles, I climb stuff, especially if it's not meant for that, I walk dark streets on my own, I enjoy unlit hallways and stair cases, I find huge spiders simply amazing and weird noises at night all have some logical explanation, whatever it may be.

But I think it's not that I'm completely fearless, I just like to overcome fear. Oftentimes, when I find something I'm a bit scared of something in my head instantly compells me to go do it anyway, because being afraid is just silly. As for things I can't do or check out, rational thought usually kicks in within seconds to inform me that everything's fine.

This piece of self-reflection has been brought to you - belatedly - by Pottermore's decision to sort me into Gryffindor. I always thought of myself as a Hufflepuff, but you know... I tend to be rather lazy. And I can be more than a little arrogant at times. So, yeah. Gryffindor is horribly mainstream and stuff, but that damn seven-useless-questions-hat might not have been so very wrong.
