MY PHOBIA

Courage isn't the absence of fear, it is facing the fear head-on. Or something like that because I was trying to come up with those fancy words motivational speakers like to use to put people into trouble.

Thank God we're in the twenty first century and not one of those ancient times where men would ride into battle and face their enemies like the warriors they were. I love being born in the twenty first century, because at least I'm allowed to express my fear in peace.

I don't mind motivational speakers though, but I've yet to see one that can convince me to stay calm in the presence of a snake. Doesn't matter if it's one or a hundred meters away, as long as I can see it then I'm off in the opposite direction.

That law about unlike charges attracting should definitely be revised. There's nowhere you'll find more negative energy than between I and a snake and we most definitely have no business being attracted to each other.

Who doesn't like tea? Probably ALIENS

Been called an alien because for some reason that nature chose for me, the smell of tea nauseates me and actually drinking it gets me to vomit.

Almost everyone on earth loves to drink tea, but apparently I'm not one of them. Imagine people saying their allergic to things like bees or peanut butter and there comes @hazmat who gets nauseated from drinking tea.

After spending a semester in my first year with a family who loved drinking tea, I had a new fear unlocked that I didn't think was even possible. The fear of living with tea drinkers.
These days I spend my time trying to convince my friends to switch to coffee, but it seems Africans generally like the idea of tea better than coffee.

Imagine being the only human in a village of blood thirsty vampires, sounds terrifying doesn't it?
When moving to a new apartment you'll probably be asking the landlord what the electricity condition is in the area. But I'll be there worried about landing in the hospital from accidental inhalation of Lipton or Toptea.
