winds howling as a storm gathers on a hot summer evening; the rain, in all its moods; the sea; hearing people breathe while they sleep (i said breathe, not snore. i hate people snoring); my grand mom singing; my phone ringing everytime the significant v calls; the streets in the dead of the night; cats purring... i could go on. but i absolutely detest high pitched noises that bore into my brain leaving them jarred!

7. WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD?

when you cant help someone in need.
when you can't say what you really want to for the sake of politeness
