It took weeks of practice, but when I finally got it, I felt so proud. Now, whistling while I work reminds me that small skills can bring big joy.

My little brother learned to whistle at exactly seven years old.

Ugh, it's like people forget a microphone picks up EVERY little sound. My neighbor does team meetings on his balcony and I hear his whole life while I'm trying to sleep. The line between private and shared space just vanished.
