1: Thursday, January 31st – 12:25AM – my dorm room

2: Farthest away – someone opening and closing a door down the hallway, the elevator beeping as it opens on a floor someone above or below me, branches on the trees outside my building rustling against one another

3: The TV playing the news faintly in the background, the hum of my heater across the room

4: The wind outside the window beside me howling extremely loud, rain pounding against that same window

5: There’s a lot of sound, but the general level of sound is low – it’s fairly quiet, even though there’s a lot going on

6: Stormy

7: The wind, the rain, the hum of the heater
