Re: david
you poked me!! jessyka poked mee!! (*runs to teacher)
yeah, jess, we would have to be pretty much opposites on the visual thinking
spectrum, assuming there is one. although, the more i think about it, i
wonder if 'visual' is even the right term to describe how i understand
things- i think it might be more along the lines of 'atmospheric' or
'non-literal.' i'm visual, but don't have a photographic memory by any
stretch. i think i mostly understand things by inference. and i don't
remember events so much by how they looked, or what was said, but by the
overall feeling and mood of the day. yeah, i know it's weird.
it's very difficult for me to remember people's names until i see them
written down.
but this way of thinking is a big reason why i love otr so much. because
their music and lyrics are so very non-literal, somehow they always makes
sense to me.
um, rambling on about my psyche is over, now.
