Haha, I knew someone would post a "rape time" pic somewhere in this thread. 
That Burger King emoticon is gold. 
I'll have to add that one after work tonight. And I love your diagram, BlueTsunami.
I feel better now that the sun is up. It's at night when I get creeped out! 
This is actually my first time being alone overnight... ever. I just realized that! At home my parents are always here, and with my boyfriend, he was always home at night. So it's a new thing for me.
I don't think I could live alone. 
eh, it's important not to worry for nothing... I understand that you're female and that it does makes you more vulnerable to potential criminals, but still statistically I guess that the risk something dreadful would occur is infinitely low... you probably have far, far more chances to accidentally wound yourself by accident in your home out of clumsiness... and at night since there are far less people outside, risks of burglary are probably much lower than they are in the day (thieves prefer to come when everyone is gone at school/work)
worrying like that is NOT a good attitude to adopt, you need to be joyful and to laugh about what you fear, you must not let it get to you... you realize that if one day something really terrible does happen, a fearful attitude would only hurt your chances of an escape? when malicious people detect fear on others' faces, they KNOW that they're getting to them, you must learn to never give those visual cues
don't let yourself paralyzed by those fears of loneliness, and learn to poke fun at everything you fear instead... there are no monsters in the closet, there are no ghosts waiting to haunt you in a cemetery at night, etc etc... these are only illusions created by the brain... it never accepts to be afraid without knowing what causes the fear, so it imagines dangers... learn to be fully aware of these irrational emotions to discard them
