I think I'm an optimist. But when I get nervous about things I tend to yell 'I'm gonna die!' or 'I'm gonna fail!' but I normally don't believe it.

Same, my way of calming myself is repeating "I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die":P

Yeah. It's like saying that's the worst that can happen, and it won't. :)

People are naturally pessimistic. We tend to exaggerate deaths, crimes, and failures instead of focusing on amazing works or feats.

I think we are called cynics. Or Debbie Downers.

I'm a surrealist, actually. Basically that means I'm sort of in the middle between the melting clock and the polka-dotted elephant.

Nah, I wouldn't say it like that. I'm a realist who's struggling to be an optimist.
