tightly wound

I've got one student who bursts into giggles after almost every sentence she utters. It's distracting, and for a long time I was suspicious: no one could possibly be that cheerful. Confirmation of my conjecture came yesterday when we were discussing the question, "What makes you angry?"

"Everything," my tightly wound student said.

We have a winner.
