Oops, no wait. Sorry. I lied. I'm doing that folding-over-the-edge-of-my-pillow-cover-and-rubbing-my-finger-over-it thingy. I didn't even notice.

I'm trying to stop flicking my finger nails as it is annoying. I can often be found rubbing my clothes, stroking my hair or tapping my fingers.

Oh and twirling a pen in my fingers, or tapping my feet....

Rubbing the stubble on my chin and repeatedly cracking my neck.

The world must be ending! *runs around screaming with his hands over his ears* *stops abruptly* Oh that means its going to be nice and quiet around here for once. *picks up a book and goes back to stimming*

It's almost as embarassing as being caught doing something else....

rubbing my hand on corduroy shirt until it turns red....

(to get rid of the sensation of touching dishwasher film on glass)

I usually keep still but I'm listening to Sigur Rós. Sometimes I will get up and walk around the campus for an hour straight but that's just because I'm bored.

Sometimes, When I'm deep in thought, I do rub my philtrum. A philtrum is the midline groove that runs from the upper lip to the nose.

I'm doing this again. When am I not when I'm next to my pillows?

Kissing Bearsac (my teddy bear rucksack) on his worn-out ear or making kissing noises towards him on the train.

I'm striking the fleshy and muscular parts of my body with a hammer, just hard enough to create a lingering dull pain but not enough to do any damage. As a side bonus doing this does toughen up my flesh, doesn't add strength however.

My stimming occasionally enters the realm of masochism. For instance im pretty sure i pick at scabs, and pop zits to stim.

I don't think I rock, but then again I'm not watching myself. I have very restless legs/feet. I crack my ankles, toes, knuckles, neck, back regularly. My hands are always doing something (often rubbing my face, or fidgeting with the mouse), unless I'm leaning on them, or I'm biting them. The weirdest thing is that is always put my hands on the back of my neck whenever I shower. Stuff like that.
