One of my biggest fears is being alone in an unfamiliar place. Which leads me now to tell you wonderful folks of a time when I realized this was in fact my biggest fear. It all began one day in 2nd grade. Class started as normal with all the regular activities such as the pledge and the math calendar and such. Everyone knew this day was special, despite the regularity of the morning routine. This day we were to embark on a field trip to the Planetarium. I had been waiting for this trip for almost a whole week. We had a wonderful time. If you would like to hear the middle of the story please confront me later. It is a wonderful story, but I do not wish to type it all out. The end is the interesting part so here we go. I had to make a last minute trip to the bathroom before we loaded the buses to leave the planetarium and travel to a park nearby to eat lunch. When I exited the bathroom, I walked down the stairs in just enough time to see my bus... pulling away from the planetarium without me aboard. This is when I fully came to the realization that being left alone is one of my larger fears. The End.
