It's often body-wide, even raising the hair on my head, but particularly my arms and thighs will be affected. It happens when I hear certain songs, when I hear a very dear loved one speak after having not heard their voice for a long while, and, sometimes, when I play a musical instrument, if I am unable to detect any flaws. Does this ever happen to you? less

They often grow in hedgerows in the wild but I noticed the ones along the motorway were on free standing bushes.It also made me think of this song, which has been stuck in my head ever since.. It's a kinda sad song but I love it because it reminds me of the old ballads/folk songs my mum used to sing to me..it's of that kind of vibe.

"Trip To Pain" Dakoda Motor Co.~ my favorite contemporary Christian band, mainly because of this song (and cool music video)
~ if you haven't heard the song, give it a listen :)

I had to Macbeth, and I passed that exam but can remember nothing of the play! I do wonder... how relevant, how useful it is to include Shakespeare in the English exams here... I have nothing against him.. and quite like a play or two :P but I do wonder.... why do they hang on to this, almost impossible to understand archaic author? Were there not any others? Was he that *great* I am just not sure of the need to include or rely so heavily on Shakespeare? She's also doing Jekyll and Hyde, which she hates and, 'An Inspector call' which she also doesn't much like.. I had 'Of Mice and Men' I think it's at least good that they don't ONLY do Macbeth and Of Mice and men now.. but I do wonder if they should widen it up still more...Anyway... I felt this song was appropriate less
