I don't like to have buds in my ears if I feel unsafe, like walking around downtown, I feel scared I will miss something and be ran over, kinda silly but I really feel like my ears are my antennas.<BR/><BR/>I love those collages :)!!<BR/>xoashAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21171856.post-58143372311262765822007-03-21T18:43:00.000+01:002007-03-21T18:43:00.000+01:00Love love love your collages!!!

I also don't like carrying headphones outside unless I am commuting, otherwise I enjoy the sound of birds, people talking, being exposed to the surroundings and enjoying the senses and love of Spring.
