-Things I hate and things I love-

I love
traveling, taking the taxi in my holidays, drawing, playing the cello, writing stories, playing the piano, to sneeze, invent new worlds, eating, chocolate (my favourites: from Lindt; 50% Cacao with either Salt or Chilli), the moon, nature, the universe, mysteries, samosa, the smell of the cellar in my home, the smell of popcorn, amber, sleeping, shysha, animals, inspiring people, cleaning my ears, walnuts and figs, melancholia, papaya, mango lassi, church architecture, Sarajevo, books, gifts (surprises), classical concerts, nostalgia, couscous, dreams (day/ night), the wind, the ocean, romantic love stories.
I hate
buttons, getting up early, no sleep, suffering from sleeplessness (insomnia), OCD, people who hate animals, thoughts about war, diseases, death, the knowledge of the jungle getting destroyed, imperialism, the police, having an explanation for everything, air conditioning, warm seats (from someone who was just sitting there), sharing (depends on what actually), school, a wet bicycle saddle, weak hand-shakes, stepping on popcorn, screaming babies, having things in my teeth that seem to be unremovable, too much salad sauce in my salad, being excluded from things, the sun shining on my laptop, overcooked pasta, people misusing their power, asparagus, getting older, the thought of time running out.
