Synesthesia (link takes you to the Wikipedia article.)



It's an infliction of the brain (more like awesome power) where the person can taste words, see numbers as abstract shapes, and letters of an alphabet carry an unchanging code and color. Not every person carries all those traits at once, It comes in a variety of abstract things like that, and frankly it sounds inspiring as hell.

As a child, Pat Duffy told her Dad, "I realized that to make an R all I had to do was first write a P and draw a line down from its loop. And I was so surprised that I could turn a yellow letter into an orange letter just by adding a line." (From Wikipedia)
 

An interesting case of synesthesia is Daniel Tammet. Each positive integer up to 10,000 has its own shape and color, he also can recite pi from memory up to 22,514 digits. This is probably due to his synesthesia in a way seeing as how each number has a memorable picture in his head.

I hope this interested you guys.

My mom's computer is acting weird, and my brother's computer is usually occupied.
My computer is broken.
So... I won't be commenting/posting as frequently.
Hiatus?

God,  I want my computer fixed now.

So I watched this movie called Léon: The Professional. Which is about a hitman who takes in a 12 year old girl and teaches her his trade.
There's a weird... sort of... sexual tension? I don't know, but the movie is really interesting.
Natalie Portman plays the part of the little girl, and she's adorable. If I were Léon, I'd probably like her.
The movie is a little unrealistic since there's a lot of shooting in apartment buildings, but no reports.
All in all I think it's a fun movie.

17th-Jan-2010 10:55 am - Day 04: Your favorite book.
I'm just going to go with one that's memorable. It's hard to choose just one.

I finished this book a long time ago, but I still like the concepts involved.
I have a thing for Dystopia/Utopia books.

Fuck, finding a picture for this was annoying. You know, The Mighty Boosh doesn't just consist of Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding. >:(
I think there should be a Facebook group created that says "I forget to eat while I'm drawing."
Um... I hate being ugly, it kind of makes it impossible to find a significant other in high school. I know most high school relationships are destined to fail, but that's not very comforting either.
Ugh, I suck, school sucks, everything sucks.

I felt like there was something else I was going to write...
two nights ago I hung out with Dave Gunn, Bianca, Tj, and Rain, a new girl I've never met and only read about in Dave's journal. It was kind of awkward once Rain got there, only more like I felt awkward for Tj, but by the end of the night I felt like conversation began picking up. It was also the second time talking to Dave, I feel like I bore him, but then again we haven't gotten to talk that much. Meeting new people is fun. Breaking the ice is hard. The end.

Holy crap I am going to be tired for school today.
I need to stop staying up so late.

A crappy photo I took a while ago.
And this is why I shouldn't go so long without posting... because I won't stop posting.
By the way I'm using my tumblr now if you want to check it out.
