  • Day One...The Fun Of Proper Traditional Sweets

    day 1

    I love these like traditional sweet things that you never find anywhere. I got these from a garden centre (cause I'm a cool kid) Yes, garden centres do in fact sell rather cool things other than plants and...trees. I didnt mean to flash quite so much btw so please excuse the 'supergirl' girl boxers...:roll:. Grey T-Shirt cause its so hot today, black absorbs sun right? And white reflects it so...surely grey balences it out? Don't have any white T'Shirts anyway...right off to hose the plants...*Vamooses*

  • Cause my life is boring...

    So I'm half turning this into a 365 photo projects thing where you post a photo a day for a year, I've seen a couple now and everytime i thought 'wow that's cool, I want to do that...' so this time I did and i will. If anything exciting happens ill blog anyway but lifes full of exams etc at the momsne, not so fun to write about soooo, yeah.

    OH THE FUN NOW I'M EXCITED...I really can't revise.

    The TV's saying 'He's a psychopath..' in the adverts between watching Miami Ink...I love that program...

  • Hear the Colours :)

    *feels like blogging about synesthesia*

    Just cause i heard some classical-ish music and had my eyes closed, oh the fun...

    I don't talk about this much as it's generally met with 'wtf?' 'right...' 'um..okay...' and raised eyebrows and im fairly used to it.

    Soooooooooooooooo hard to describe/explain without sounding like even more of a freak than i am ;). I'll find you a definition first *runs to wikipedia*. Right well they're trying their best to be confusing... but here you go:

    'Synesthesia is a neurologically based phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.'

    Basicallly the thought or sight of some things, are coloured (for example).There are looads of different types, I know someone who can taste words which I think is pretty cool :). Ohh and some people feel like colours, days or letters have personalities (personification) whihc sounds cool too.

    synesthesia

    It not too well know and can be brought on by epileptic fits, but is sometimes sporadic and is linked to autism (which is where I get it from, being on the autistic spectrum)

    The most common is 'Grapheme → color synesthesia' which i experience most strongly. Basically the thought (and sometimes sight) of letters and numbers are coloured, like 'A' is red as is 'H', 'T' is blue and 'S' is yellow. I also can see or think of people as colours automatically, like, my dad is green as is my friend beth and my friend Em and cousin are blue where as my sister and friend Gem are purple and my friend natalie is red (as is my mom). It has nothing to do with your personality or appearence its just...random. But my favourite is 'Sound → color synesthesia' (all mine are colours :() so a cat miowing is green, and pitches are different colours. basically shuting your eyes and listening to music can be cool because of the colours (especially classical...joy :roll:)

    music colour synesthesia
    (example of muuuusic :) not like this for everyone)

    So yeah, anyway, rather tedious description for you :D, just thought i'd blog cause its not well known and before I was talking to mom about which colour I was I didn't know that it wasn't experienced by everyone so if you didnt know, there you go :).
