Welcome To My Blog!!

Heyy my name is Khushboo (I know, it is impossible to say it, thats why I decieded to make my screen name Kboo ) and as you might have guessed already, I am a big fan of FACTS!!

I always had a curiosity for knowing things that are not common or usual. I spend hours and hours looknig up interesting facts and sometimes funny pictures too (especially of animals). I try to remember most of them but it just becomes impossible. So i decieded to make a blog and save all the facts that I find to be interesting and share it with you guys as well. My blogs are mostely going to consist of a bunch of facts and a picture or two relating to them, as it makes things more interesting. I would love it if you guys shared some facts with me, that you found to bo pretty cool. It could be about anything, So go ahead and dont be shy to share your ideas and knowledge with me :)

Strange Phobias

1.  Sidonglobophobia - Fear of Cotton Ball
     A woman scared of cotton ball
I learnt this phobia in my psychology class and my teacher showed this video of how that woman is dreadful of cotton balls. At first i thought that she was just acting to get attention but then I i realized that she is actually scared of them. No one really knows the reason why she is scared of them.

2. Chromophobia - The fear of Bright Colors
  Imagine walking into a store that is filled with bright color clothes. Most of the people would get excited to try on and buy the clothes, but some would scream and run away. Or if they went over their friends house the first time and went in their room with bright color walls. Man they would have a panic attack. Worst case senerio would be a person going to Las Vegas.  

3. Lepidopterophobia - Fear of Butterflies
  I am sorry to say this but butterfly is the only insect that is actually beautiful. They are so delicate and pretty how could anyone be scared of it? One of the famous people that is lepidopterphobic is Nicole Kidman. Yup.

4. Eisoptrophobia - Fear of your Own Reflection.
  I don't know what to say to that. I sometimes spends in front of a mirror withe dacing or singing or doing my hair. I really can't live without knowing how I look like. But i wonder if a person who suffers from Eisoptrophobia is scared to look at their own picture, they would indirectly be looking at their own reflection...
