i'm now into gold.
in high school i remember having disdain for the color.
and hate.
i hated, gold.
only silver, please.
(if anything).
no shimmers or sparkles or flare.
simple did it.
but now i love gold,
love sparkles,
and will even wear a piece of gold jewelry now and then,
like on my birthday.
or to my yellow desk while i edit by myself.

obsess over gaudy. it's good for you.
p.s. my chinese grandma was reminding us at christmas of all the gold necklaces my mom had to wear at her wedding. it's a tradition for the bride's mother to pass down jewelry to her. i guess my dad called her "mrs. t" all night. spectacular.
(12.30.09 @ 10:05 PM)I only wear gold. Are you saying I'm gaudy? ; ) I was a silver girl for a while but in college it was all gold and it has continued that way. Gold looks much better with my complexion and hair color than silver. Strange that it's so, but it's true.
(12.30.09 @ 10:09 PM)Ooooh the same thing happened to me. I only wore silver in high school, but now I'm all about gold and bronze. :)
(12.31.09 @ 07:25 AM)I'm all silver. But I'm still in college. Maybe I'll like gold later.
(12.31.09 @ 08:37 AM)One of my color poems from AW was about GOLD. Maybe you should read it. ;)
(12.31.09 @ 08:58 AM)Marie would be so proud of your taking on the GOLD. You've got to be the leading lady of your own life no more silver go for the GOLD>>>>
(12.31.09 @ 09:39 AM)LOVE gold. Used to hate hate hate it with a burning passion also. Gold was for ugly old lady jewelry. But now, all I buy is gold. bling bling
