| My cats opening my wardrobe and going inside, covering my clothes in hair. People who don't bother to reply on MSN, or who ignore text messages. Sunny weather. Vanity. People smoking, drinking or taking drugs. PEOPLE WHO LIE. Tight clothes. Untidiness. People who don't finish their sentences. My hai... |

| Willaful - It suppose it is perhaps something that I will feel more settled about as I get older. I think a c-section sounds preferable to giving birth normally . . . or do I? I'm not fooling anyone. Both of them seem horrifying. I feel so silly, saying that - because it is, after all, such a natura... |

| I very much dislike being told what to do too . . . I even get angry if someone says "Shhhh!" or "Calm down!" It makes me less calm, and quite indignant. Something my parents always used to say that would always make me feel very contemptuous and annoyed was this: "You have the right to an opinion, ... |

| I feel confused and conflicted about the possibility of having children. There are various reasons for this. On the one hand, I do have the maternal instinct that means I feel a little rush of happiness when I see a baby, and a strong desire to look after it. I imagine having a baby, and holding it ... |

| I take a 28F/FF - but I only wear soft cup bras, because I hate under-wires. They're never comfortable. It's quite hard to find many soft-cup bras in my size, and I often wear sports bras. |

| Insects bother me too . . . certain things haven't helped. When I was about eight or so years old, I was at my gran's house for dinner, and she was cooking some eggs in the grill. It was summer, and there was a large, intimidating fly-type thing careering about in the kitchen. I have no idea what it... |

| I suppose it depends on various things, really - such as what sort of state your bank balance is in in the first place (if it doesn't have very much in it, then you should try and save up some contingency money), or if some of your monthly bills can vary from time to time. For instance, in winter my... |

| I felt like this often when I cut out dairy - I think my body was missing the extra fat and protein I would otherwise have been getting from cheese, yogurt and milk. That was a few months ago, but even now I still get hungry a lot more than I used to. |
