If People Were Colors

You changed my life from black and white to vibrant color.

If people were colors, you'd be yellow.

Shining and glistening like the sun, your immanent light illuminating every place you travel. As cliche as it sounds, you could light up any room, and when you speak the brightest lights glisten with envy. You leave sunspots everywhere you go, even an hour in your presence enough to leave me feeling warm and tingly all over. A day with you is like a trip to the sun, one that I never want to end.

If people were seasons, you'd be summer.

Your spirit carries you further than anything else. The possibility of freedom in every moment living in your every move, and the endless love for the world that pulses through your veins propelling you forward. You crash over everyone that knows you like a wave, your waters leaving me breathless in the best way. Every day with you feels like a new adventure.

If people were songs, you'd be my favorite one.

Melodic and floating through the air without a care in the world, not giving a second thought to who may be within earshot, but wanting everyone to hear you regardless. You are loud and incredible, and your voice is my favorite sound. You feel like a movie soundtrack, perfectly crafted for every moment. Everything you do complements you so perfectly, and I could have you on repeat for hours.

If people were colors, before you I was blue.

Going through the motions day by day, yet not feeling a thing. Cold, damp, drowning. Sunshine feeling as far away as any sign of help. Cast into the deep by the ones who came before you, I was as blue as they come. Waves crashed, I cracked, watching as they took me under one by one.

But then you came along and everything changed.

Somehow sunshine found its way into my darkness, illuminating things I thought would stay hidden forever. You tore me from my comfort zone, and made me into a new creation. You dredged me of the water that was swallowing me whole, cradling me and leading me to drink from the sweetest water you could find.

You turned my life from black and white to vibrant color.

Jesus, you make me feel yellow.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
