Booooooooooooooooooooo!
Fear … No matter what a person says about him/her being fearless, I think all of us have our little fears… Fear of heights, closed spaces, empty spaces……fear of losing someone…cockroaches, lizards…God…the list is endless…
I must confess. I am scared of the DARK…I really am!...I mean when I was a little kid I remember watching padhimunaam number veedu (translated into House number 13)…and there was this lame ghost in a white sari thingy…and I was scared of walking to the kitchen to get water…The I thought “OK I’m little so I can be scared of the dark..not a bad thing”…but no!...its just not leaving me!...even now I watch a lot of horror movies…really scary ones…some stupid ones.. I mean how many ppl wudve watched the Grudge and gotten scared??? Well no points for guessing…I am one of them…I just have a very wild imagination so later on when I think abt it I let my imagination run wild….ok enuf said abt tht….I also have this vague fear of swings inside the house..and ppl playing with these rubber balls… You know these long wooden swings tht u can find in most Tam-brahm houses…I get this feeling that as I swing higher and higher its gonna crack and hit all walls…the same with playing….its just very weird..maybe there is some “previous birth” thing..hehe…
I really wanted to write abt voodoo , black magic and stuff…coz I just heard abt some incidents that occurred in Kerala…pretty scary when u hear abt the stuff they can do…ghosts, spirits, charms, the works…neways with my xams coming up I havent had too much time to research on tht….
Will be interesting to know abt the fears other ppl have,..tht way I will consider myself to be sane…as yet
P.S….i guess this sounds like a lame-ass post written for the heck of writing…and no harjee this is not because u asked me too..i mean not ONLY because u asked me too…just been wanting to blog abt this for a looongg time…so theree…

I first thought u were refering to the kid in Monsters Inc.
u have 2 let it all go "Why U R" ... fear, doubt and disbelief ... freeeeee you miiiiind :p
Hey...You have a bunch of tiny phobias n they translate to fear for most people....You know just keep your eyes open n look into the dark, slowly you can see a little bit and tht may make u feel more safe...Anyways, I know this one for sure- When it is dark, you know your surrounds better than an alien or someone who comes to your house or where ever you live...You have an edge over that.
Most fears are what our mind tricks us to doing...Like seeing seeing the ghost in a saree n tht too in the cursed No 13 house...YOu must realise tht if you are scared within, everything outside can scare you...Once you make up your mind to not be afraid, nothing will bother you....It's all in the mind...I shall wirte a story tht helped me over come my silly fears in my post in a while n maybe tht will help u....
The swing....Yea..My grandparents got it from a Tam bram couple n put it in our home..Now mind you tht my ancestral hom eis 150 years old, all wooden n all tht, mal though...I dont like the swing coz it makes me nauseatic...Not coz I am scared...Wht worse can happen even if I fall down..Just hurt some part,....I think I can deal more than tht...
All of us can endure much more than what we think we can handle or endure. Just straighten your mind n speak to n tell it that you are not going to be scared n you wont!!
I have done the "calling the spirits" game n nothing happened..the spirit, if it ours or external came, answered some uestions, we asked tht think to go n it didnt so my friend actually stamoed the coin we were using to play this n told in a loud voice- Just go, we have finished! It went off!!!
I have been in real fearful situations n then have in time relaised most of it is our imagination because of our subconscious inhibitions we have had in our past, maybe child hood, stories told to us but have you really experienced any thing in flesh and blood. I dont think so! and it wont happen either...
Your movie watching teminds me of my sis who would cover her eyes with her hands n eatch the movie between a smal gap as the movie is scary n I used to make fun if her...Now she lives alone in a spooky place n her daily life involves looking at dead bodies...
Oooops, i have written way too much, like a post itself!!!! :) You can kill me or send your fears to me n I shall straighten it out n send em as life to you!! :) :)
@samy...welcome to my blog..:),,,kid in monster's inc.?!! yea rt...hehe...
@samy and @scribblez - hey thanx to both u guys actually...i shud try and get over this....guess the saamy funny approach wud work out:P..

hey Scribblez ... stop scaring her will ya ... :)
Anyways, u concentrate on exams ... and do well ... okie?
the fact is that many things exist that we know nothing of ... and are best left that way ....
@anup...thankiee:)u sound like an X Files episode..."the fact is that many things exist that we know nothing of ... and are best left that way"....haha
Trust me you are sane (hehehee)., most women out there are scared of cockroaches and dark. Even if they are not., they do managed to throw a scream when they see a dumb cockroach doing its own business a meter away... :P
Well., swings in a lonely huge house is indeed slightly eerie.. :)
tumhara darna zaroori hai...
i've called (tried) spirits and all with friends but nobody came :-(
then once went to stay over with friend who lives near the cemetry (didn't know) and they all collectively decided to return my calls...
have never gone to stay over again... no matter what time, i leave...
thanks for the update.
my thanks stands directly proportional to the percentage of contribution it made towards an update.
I guess Asians on the whole tend to believe in the supernatural more than out western counterparts. On 1 hand, i think we hve more to fear frm humans than these beings. But the human's inate fear of the unknown also comes into play. Even in modern cities like s'pore, such fear and superstition abounds. For me personally, hve come across sum weird goingons but nothing has jumped out infront of me (touch wood!) Do write abt the local ghost stories, wld love to read abt them ;-)
i am not sure where my beliefs lie....but I prefer not to test them and just avoid all of it..
but I hear a lot of stuff abt charms etc back home..and sometimes it all appears belivable...
Dont know abt ghosts...but think spirits do exist
u sure you didnt miss out on an 'h' and a 't' from the title of your post? shudnt it have been 'bhooooooooot' instead of just 'booooooo'...
I fear ceiling fans, spiders and being ugly. in that order.
A post on the way in a few inutes sweetheart..Wrote it, doing some spel checking but got to get some lunch done , so I shall resume n u will have it ina while..And Am sorry if I scared u
Anup: Hey man, she is a bold woman...She wont get scared coz of me n all!! After all I am like a goat over green grass meadows...:) :)
Why Am I: Aint tht right..The goat part atleast!! :) :)
@da rodent...wht dya mean most women?>??!!!!!!!*fumes* hehe
@harjee - ur "proportionately" welcome:P...u stayed in a hhouse near a cemetery?!!!wow maybe i shud do tht once of these days so i stop getting scared/...
Boooooooo.....be afraid, very afraid.
@jack - well its not as bad as in some countries where u dont have streets or houses with the No 13...but yuip nevertheless...and yes i have stories:)... will update as soon as my exams are over...which after two weekss,..canot wait to get over with tht!!
@ fresh ink - yup the live variety is more scary sometimes:)...part of it is just some crap tht has been handed down over generations...u knwo stuff like" eat this stuff or the ghost will eat u"....
@chandni 0- i guess u wudnt belive in them unless u see one:P:P:P kidding...somehow i think some of the ppl who say they dont belive in spirits etc are just too scared to admit it..and tht they wud rather believe that they dont...its all in the head!
@ iyer - hmmm..it was booooo because it was not only abt the bhoots...also abt swings...etc etc...see...very scientific expanation i have:d...thankeee

@ sj - poda:P....no offense....
The only time I got really scared is when we had one of our relatives murdered in her home. This happened one week after my aunt passed away. That whole episode was quite shicking more than anything else. I remember leaving the lights on and going to sleep 2-3 nights in a row.
ooops...all the best !
:*
:))
@reflextion - thanks:)...stupic comments neva appear the first time post themmmm..neways yea tht can be pretty scary..esp with ppl telling u tht after a person dies the spirit doesnt leave earth until some time:P....
@ sj ----:D
fear seems to be a far thing from me nowadays :), but i still remember when i used to be scared of those guys who used to come to our house with the cows for worship, i hear him at the end of the road, under BED!!!:)
im scared of physical pain.
im scared of needing someone else.
ps: i linked ur blog :P
@yogi - tht seems to be a common one!..also these temple elephants for some strage reason...
@ fatty - thanks:)saw tht one:P....physical pain??hmmm...scared tht u mite need someone or scared tht someone u need mite not be there...
i love the temple elephants(even tho i dont really like temples, probably just like the architecture most of times tho) they give ya the knock on the head!:)
@yogi - u know wht ive neva gotten tht knock on the ehad thing coz i think they mite trample me or something and u can little kids getting tht:)and yes on the temple architecture thing..i remmeber reading a previous blog of urs:)...am sure u wud love thr architecture of khajuraho..:P
I am scared of heights...nope I am terrified of them. My cousin and I used to go to the terrace of our 13 storey building and she used to walk on the parapet fearlessly while I am standing and shitting bricks asking her to step down.
I am scared to losing my ability to speak and I fear hairfall.
So there you go...HAPPY???:-)
