Sit down please
Once in Greece, I accidental happened to be alone in a house with a -very nice- Greek woman, with whom I had this interesting conversation, caused by the fact that she didn´t speak any English, except one phrase.
Greek woman: Sit down please”.
Me: “Thank-you” (sitting down).
Silence.
After some time, -in silence-, I tried to raise from the chair. At once the Greek woman repeated “Sit down please”.
and I followed with a ”Thank-you” and sat down again.
I was chained to the chair, in the name of politeness, for a long time. Every movement I made was watched, in silence of-course. If I tried to raise, she would ask me to”Sit down please”. Luckily for me, an English speaking person came and saved me, -and her.
Yellow February
Being a synesthete, I combine the word “February” with yellow, which means that I am seeing the colour yellow before my eyes, every time I hear this word. The yellow month have started, so let me pass on some of this colour to you.
One of the links at my blogroll, http://lindly.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/what-color-are-you/ leads to a fun-test called “what color are you”. My colour should be lightskyblue:
| you are lightskyblue #87CEFA |
Your dominant hues are cyan and blue. You like people and enjoy making friends. You’re conservative and like to make sure things make sense before you step into them, especially in relationships. You are curious but respected for your opinions by people who you sometimes wouldn’t even suspect.Your saturation level is lower than average – You don’t stress out over things and don’t understand people who do. Finishing projects may sometimes be a challenge, but you schedule time as you see fit and the important things all happen in the end, even if not everyone sees your grand master plan.Your outlook on life is bright. You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and it frustrates you to see them get down on everything. |
