Submissions So Far
Fear, No. PTS, Yes.
I say “Fear, No” because I am not a fearful person. To me, fear has little use except to cripple and stop you in your tracks. When I saw the assignment “Facing Your Fears” then asking me to describe my biggest fear and what it might think of me, then …
The Apex of Megalomania, the Ultimate In-Control
As I mentioned in my last week’s summary, I was hoping to watch They Live (1988) on my roommate’s Hulu. Unfortunately, that requires another subscription to something called Starz – which, as you can infer, my roommate doesn’t have. So I’m left again to rely on summaries and my memories …

Facing my fears.
I created this on Canva for one of my writing assignments. This is the original link to the assignment. This assignment is three stars, which I agree with the rating. I got the picture of the snake on Canva and made the lettering white so you can see it without …
We’re soaring, flying, and crying
“Look, in my line of work, you deal with a lot of different kinds of people: tall people, short people, old people, young people, brave people, and cowardly people. I try to keep an open mind and be understanding to all that come aboard, but for the life of me, …
Why Snakes are the Enemy
I’ve decided to do the writing assignment where it makes us focus on our fears. My biggest fear in life is snakes. I can’t stand them. I can’t even watch a movie with them in it or else I will start to panic and check around to make sure they …

Facing Your Fears
My largest fear is probably spiders. I know it’s a common fear, and I know they’re nothing to worry about, but it just surfaced recently and it’s terrible. I was on vacation in Ireland with my roommate and I was in bed and I felt what I thought was my …
My Fear’s Fear
I am the body of water, I am any and all. I watch as the children of the earth come and stomp on my waves, as they pour chemicals into my arteries, as they build up structures to restrict my regular movements. I am afraid of how much they have …
Heights Smeights
Honestly I don’t understand what the fear of me is. A young human had ventured too high up onto a rock, and as he looked down into the valley of the mountain he was climbing he could see the distance he had come in proper prospective. The trees looked like …
Facing My Fears
This writing is on me facing my fear of bugs. I was inspired by the fact that I don’t like bugs. The story behind this writing is that I have to take the trash cart from the backyard to the front yard every Thursday and move the trash cart back to the backyard every Friday.
What Is This Giant DOING?!?!?!
Spiders. Spiders people, I’m afraid of spiders. I don’t know where this irrational came from, but this assignment is going to make me tell the story as if it was the victim! I do try and get my fear under control by looking at cute spider memes, but that literally …
DS106 Facing Your Fears
As humans, we all have fears. Some are scared of spiders or snakes, but the biggest fears may not be physical things. My biggest fear is being bored with life. John’s situation is like many others in the modern age. A lot of us work jobs we are not happy with for money.
