I am bored

I am bored and synesthetic, so I am making a list of people and the color of their names. If you don't know what synesthesia is, look it up on Wikipedia or read A Mango-Shaped Space. Also, I do not have the kind of synesthesia where you hear a noise and see a color, I have the kind that I just KNOW the color of words and some sounds. (What color, for examle is the word "moved"?) Those people I have forgotten, please just reply and I will add your name. For some reason, I seem to see the most words in some shade of red, pink, or blue.

Julia - Medium blue/shiny

Maddy - About the same color red as the background on this site/matte

Blair - Navy/matte

Paige - Sorry, gray, but your last name is pale yellow/matte

Lena - Dark pinkish red, but the "E" is white/sometimes matte, sometimes shiny

Jenni - Light bluish with a little tinge of gray/same as Lena

Willa - Chocolate brown/shiny

TNO - Black, but the "O" (Not the umlauts) is sometimes blue/shiny

Laura - Light browny-red/matte

Bekah - Powder blue, but REbekah is raisinish/matte, Rebekah is shiny

Kimberly - Light pink/matte

Meadow - very pale pine tree green/matte

Koffee - The color of coffee with a LOT of cream/shiny

Kake - Slightly darker pink than Kimberly/matte

Hope - Golden yellow/sometimes matte, sometimes shiny

Hannah - More orange than Hope/matte

Mary Jo - Mary is bright red, Jo is purplish royal blue/shiny

 

More later.

So do you think I have it? I have very strong color associations that I would list right here except I don't want to bore you all to sleep.

Hee hee.  Sorry, I'm a bit out of sorts.  I have a cold, and it's really frustrating!!!!!!!

 I was saying my age is brown, too.  :) 

 Again, my deepest apology.  :) 

I'll try to act normal.  :)

I'm not sure if you have it. I would like to see some (or all) of your color associations, though.

Oh, what does the year look like to you?

 

P.S. I'm not completely positive if I for sure have it.

Okay, it's boring and has a bunch of repeats but here goes...

 

A = red B = blue C = yellow D = dark green E = eggplant purplish F = white G = bright green

H = brown I = orange J = sorta dusty orange, like very light orange K = silver L = soft yellow

M = navy N = purple like E O = gray P = purple like E and N Q = silver like K R = magenta

S = green and sometimes yellow T = sandy tan, like the sand at a beach U = gray like O

V = dark green like E W = sparkly silver, like a rock X = brown like the wood of a new desk

Y = yellow like C Z, this is the really weird one = green with purple dots???

 

The months are all different people, like personification.

January = an old, old man

February = a cheerful woman in her forties

March = a sulky, cranky toddler

April = a tall, petite teenage girl

May = a bubbly, energetic kid around the ages of 8-10

June = a wistful, sad kid in his/her late teens

July = an old woman, slow and tired

August = a bittersweet, hopeful person

September = a no-nonsense, clean and practical person

October = a fun-loving, warm and friendly woman

November = a dreary, boring teenager

December = a dreamy, creative person.

I have faint colors like that for things like days of the week, months, and stuff like that. I think it's something most people have, because a lot of my friends have it, too.

So I think those of you who think the same kind of thing might not actually have it.

Whoa! I think of months the same way you do! I think it has to do with the way they are pronounced. The only distance is April--I picture her as a warm girl with a huge smile.

By the way, I apologize if I put down anyone's birthday month here; it doesn't have anything to do with the people born in a month. My mom's in November, and she's not a dreary, boring teenager!

That's realy cool! I think I have that sometimes! For me, words, letters, and numbers all have different shapes, textures, and colors. The year looks like a line bent into 3/4ths of a circle, but with a big gap in between January and December. Weird, huh?
