Transitioning From Black and White
My alternate idea for My Face Is My Canvas' Emulation #26, the first idea I had looked really weird so I scrapped it and went with this idea that came to me last night on our drive home.
All in all the trip to Victoria was really great. We got to explore the southern island, visit some cool places and eat great food. But with all of that good stuff there was one thing constantly tugging at my brain.
A while ago I mentioned that I have something called Color Synesthesia , where words, names, personalities, places all have a clear and distinct colour in my mnd. Normally I don't even notice it I just think of a word and the colour appears with it, like a little movie screen in my mind. But I've noticed that it becomes tricky when I've been in an environment or place only once before and attached a colour to it, only to have a new colour attach itself if I come back. It sounds confusing I know....
A few years ago I visited Victoria for the first time at the end of one of my 2 month bike trips. Emotions were high since it was the final stop and I had always wanted to visit the city. My first experience of Victoria was excellent and all the places we went to had very clear and vivid colours attached in my brain. When Scott and I visited those same places last week the colours were different and it bothered me a lot. I felt like I wasn't in the same spot, like it wasn't as good as it was before and that we were missing out on something because things weren't the same colour. It seems kind of ridiculous and I tried not to let it weigh me down but it was constantly nagging at me, it was weird because we've travelled to different places together and I've never really had that happen....should be interesting to see what happens next time we're there...
