    What shames you that you feel guilty about? This is about things you don't like, but feel bad that you don't like them.

    I hate autotuning in any music. It really ruins the voice and makes the music seem like a joke. Everyone listens to it though.

    Downloading stuff online.

    I feel like I'm just stealing from other people, even if I don't use pirate websites etc.

    Being so desensitized. Horrible things will happen, and I can recognize that they're horrible bad things, but I just... honestly don't care.

    Like 9/11, for instance. I mean, yes it's terrible that so many people died before their time. But it's like... really? A couple buildings got attacked. What do we do/what happens in other countries all the time? MUCH more destruction and devastation. So I don't really care about 9/11. I guess I kind of have the mentality of that one quote. "The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of millions is a statistic."


    That's really my main one. I don't feel anything about these situations, but I feel bad that I don't feel bad.

    ^ That for me as well.

    Similar to Jack, I hate screaming in metal. Metal is my favorite genre of music, but I hate screaming. I find it tedious and obnoxious and frankly that it kills the musicality of any part of a song it appears in. i feel bad about this because I know there are a lot of good bands that use screaming (Opeth for example) and I'll never be able to get into them because of it.

    I also hate how hard on myself I tend to be most of the time. I'm always expecting too much of myself. I realize this, yet can't seem to stop it.

    @Yami: ^^^ That's me with my guilt. No matter what it's about, the tiniest little misunderstanding or whatever, and I can and will twist it around to be my fault. Everything is always my fault, so I have to beat myself up over it and make myself feel horrible because other people don't. It's like I abuse myself. I tell myself that I messed up so I deserve to feel bad. Even when the other party is like "Uh, no o.o It was just a little thing. So how 'bout dem ponies?" I'm like "Nope I'm a horrible person if I hadn't done [this], then this whole thing wouldn't have happened."

    Of all of my personal problems that I've worked through, my guilt complex is the one product of my upbringing that I can't let go of. So I continue to guilt myself needlessly over any situation, big or small. And to be perfectly honest... there's a part of me that doesn't want to let go of my guilt. I feel like if I let myself not feel guilty over every little thing, that I'll turn into a bad person who NEVER feels bad about things (even when I should).

    I don't like lieing.
    I also don't like breaking promises.

    Ah yes, that too. I am honest to a fault. It's almost a compulsion for me. I can't count the number of times I've just blurted out the truth, no matter how much the repercussions may hurt me. So don't ask me a question if you don't want a straight, likely blunt, answer.

    -Torrenting things I guess...? It depends on what it is. I hate iTunes so I refuse to buy MLP episodes from them. So those I torrent (and I'll happily delete them all once an official DVD set is released). Plus, if I'm gonna pay for episodes from iTunes, they could at least color correct them so they don't look like a washed out piece of crap. Also the DRM protection is total bull. If I buy a TV series, I should be allowed to use it on whatever device I want! But I'll happily buy music from iTunes, as they aren't DRM protected.

    -EXTREME procrastination. An assignment due in 3 weeks? I'll do it all the night before! I always try hard with assignments and projects and strive for good grades, but I'm often guilty of procrastination. When it comes time that the assignment is almost due, that's when I'll start, and I always regret it, and usually become extremely stressed. And do I learn from this? Nope! I always tell myself "Next time, I'll get an early start." Never happens.

    I procrastinate so badly it's untrue.
    Everything is done the night before.

    I hate pirating things. I do it rarely, but when ever I do I feel extremely disappoint with myself.
    Like when I got a pirated Castlevania... :cry:

    I'm late.
    For everything.

    5pm? I'll arrive half an hour later.
    I can't stop myself from doing it.

    I often procrastinate and don't get to doing things. In the end it does get done but it is done in a hurry...also I am quite stubborn and find it hard to apologise. But again I do sometimes swallow my pride. but it is very hard for me. Also if someone makes me really angry it is hard to forgive and forget. I'll forgive, eventually. But those moments where I was angry often stay in my head for years and years, and sometimes something sparks and I remember them...then I get into a bad mood and no one knows why.

    I'm like that with revision. I know I'd pass anyway.

    (Unfortunately, I have to do a Maths mock exam on my birthday, April 16. :cry: )

    I never proofread anything I write aside from spelling and grammar checks, and I never review for tests until maybe 30 minutes to an hour before-hand. I still somehow get Bs and As all over the place. I do take highly detailed and organized notes though.

    I'm like... punctual to a fault. I always arrive awkwardly early. Appointment at 1:30? I'm there at 1, if not a little before. Friend's party starts at 6? I'm there at 5:50, having been ready to go since 4 or 4:30. xD

    When it comes to school, I'd RATHER be late, but not too late. Being a bit too late results in a 45 minute detention after school.
    Fortunately, I never get any.
