silence.

The silence is deafening. Everywhere I go the constant ringing and high pitched sound in my ears never goes away.

The only thing that can get it to go away is real sound- that's why I'm so concious of silence. In the theatre during play rehersals, whenever someone would speak it would be like music and fill the entire theatre and when it was silent- I sometimes flinched a little.

I can't handle tests. I'm a great test taker, don't get me wrong, but I can't take the silence. I always have to have sound and that's why I rush and get done so quickly- so I can turn on music and listen to it and read. So the silence can go away.

Maybe it's because I've spent so much time in the silence that this happens. I'm not sure, maybe one day I'll figure it out.
