Today, I will talk about my and my mom’s fear of snakes. (I don’t really know if she’s that frightened of snakes, but I’ll tell it anyway) First, let’s talk about MY fear of snakes. My fear of snakes starts kicking in whenever I’m in water or around water. For example, when I’m in water, I often think that there might be a snake in the water with me. That would scare the absolute crap out of me, but the thought would mostly just disappear out of my head. One thing I don’t like is snakes in murky water. Now imagine being in that. HELL NO. Plus, the fact that they are faster in water just gives me the heebie jeebies, lol. Anyway, since there’s really nothing to talk about regarding my fear of snakes, let’s just move on to my MOM’s fear of snakes. Once upon a time, when my mom was a little girl, she was walking to her house with her sister. Meanwhile, she and her sister found a belt. “Sis! If you carry me all the way over to that belt, you’re strong!” My mom said in Tagalog. (Yes, she was Filipino) Her sister agreed and carried her over there. She successfully took her there, but when she put her down, the belt was actually a snake. They’d mistaken it as a belt rather than a snake. The snake hissed, and they ran away. Thankfully, neither of them got bit. The End. (Hopefully, you finished your snack or drink) Anyway, I’m thankful that my fear of snakes isn’t as bad as you think, but my mom’s? Errrrrr.. I would say that she is probably scared of snakes. However, have a pleasant day. :)

I slightly fear snakes, but not as bad as she does. I think snakes are interesting creatures. I think she is scared because she was hiking with her family in a desert or something as a kid and went off-trail without them for some reason. She tripped over a huge “branch,” or so she thought it was, and then the branch turned out to be a huge snake that was the color of sand that started coiling around her leg. She thought it was going to bite her, so before it completely wrapped around her foot, she managed to free her leg and ran off. She refuses to look at the snakes in the zoo and covers her face when she passes their enclosures. When I was 11 years old, I had a toy snake that wasn’t very realistic, but whenever she saw it, she would scream. She doesn’t watch movies with snakes and doesn’t look at any pictures of snakes, no matter how hard my dad used to try. Lol, is anyone else this scared of snakes like her, or do you know someone that scared? I’m curious to know.

It was in her closet, and I opened it for a shirt, and I really passed out. Her mom heard me and did not know that her daughter had a snake in her room.

Don’t show fear at the snake, or it will bite. Some snakes help, so don’t be scared.
