huh.
i don't have to think a color to a word or idea, they just are, like a
block has corners, i have sounds to things that don't make sound and color
to things that don't have colour. or the color is not really related to
the actual color.
i thnk it's also why i gravitate towards color syntax highligthing.
although in that case, i've learned to translate my color ideas into the
standard color syntax.
