It’s been a while, hasn’t it? This is Kaley, finally taking over for previous contributor and allover much more put together Advertising Manager Elke. According to this blog, the Fall 2015 Semester never happened, so let’s just pretend, alright? Here’s to starting fresh (if a little late)!
Our spring semester kicked off with a writing exercise, stolen from the internet and modified a bit. Members were tasked with the following prompt:
Write about (or draw) a color without naming it, and try to make us guess what color you had in mind.
We got some great answers! Can you guess what color each one is about?
“This is the color of a cloudy, ominous sky, holding the power to drag you by your wrists back to the security of your bed, but to bring torrents and flashes that soak you to the core with their awful power.”
-Anonymous
“This is the color of teenage, underage sin. Dark, rich, flowing from heavy bottles that will leave you passed out in your own vomit. Jesus is crying. This is not how he wanted you to celebrate his blood.”
-Anonymous
“When I wake up I envelope myself in sheets of luxurious thread, rich and heavy shining cloth spitting out sunshine and sunrays. When I wrap myself I feel like a treasure, sparkling and gleaming next to jewels and gems from some pirate’s cove long ago. I feel like the sun. I feel precious and rare.
And then I have to go to class and my world darkens again.”
-Anonymous
And, some interesting ones:
“aurple burple curple durple eurple furple gurple hurple iurple jurple kurple lurple murple nurple ourple qurple rurple turple uurple vurple wurple xurple yurple zurple”
(You can thank a certain e-board member for that gem.)
Thank you all for not moving to impeach me over my inactivity as a blogger, and I vow to earn back your trust this semester!
