What are LFA students most scared of?

My biggest fear definitely is being alone because you’re just by yourself and you don’t have anyone to talk to and you don’t have anyone else with you and feeling that way gets boring and tiring over a period of time and so yeah I would definitely have to say being alone.

— Jackson Petroshius ‘27

I’d say messing up something big–like big projects. I’m the stage manager this year so my biggest fear is seriously messing up on our cues but just anything in front of large groups really so i’ve got smaller groups of friends, I don’t prefer big groups and I do like to go off on my own so I’d say just being out and open and messing up.

— Paul Schumacher ‘27

“

Losing my support system is probably my biggest fear. I always try to keep my friends and family really close to me and try to show them a lot of love and respect for them because of all that they do for me so if I didn’t have them then I would lose a lot of strength and I don’t know if I could survive without them.

Probably messing up tasks and assignments or something but theater for example, I’m doing the show tonight and running lighting cues for it. I think I’d be pretty embarrassed if I messed that up.

I feel like messing up, not fulfilling what you know you can fulfill. When you know personally you can get to a certain spot or be able to achieve something but you haven’t been able to reach it, specifically in sports.

— Claire Wyngarden ‘25

“

Uncertainty, sometimes when you don’t know something it can feel a little overwhelming so I try to plan or be certain about something before I do it.

— Riya Kapoor ‘28

“

Letting down the people I care most about. I think the fear of failure is linked to personal standards and the pressure you put on yourself to succeed or to be perfect.

— Landon Fraser ‘25

“

I’m most afraid of rejection because it’s scary to put yourself out there to be judged.
