Some of my friends call me a wimp because I am afraid of so many things. I am frightened by spiders, and I feel scared when I walk into a dark room. I am afraid of meeting new people, too. I am just a fearful person.
Some things make me more than frightened. When I look down drom the top of a very tall building, I am scared stiff. I am horrified by being alone. I never go to horro movies because I am terrified by them. When I saw "Bride of Frankenstein," I was absolutely petrified. I got sick to my stomach and couldn't sleep that night.
It's no fun being a wimp. I wonder if I'll ever change.
