So I'm one of those people who goes through periods of being intensely obsessed with a particular object of focus. My current obsession is with a color- the beautiful highlighter yellow. Many of my obsessions are random and pointless with no rhyme or reason as to why I would be hooked on that particular thing at that moment in time. They are also usually fairly brief, ranging in length anywhere from one week to a few months. However, I'd like to think my highlighter yellow obsession is different.
My goal is to wear this color every single day of the year and, through pictures, to document the outfits I come up with each day... which should be pretty interesting since I'm significantly lacking in the creativity department. I mostly want to just to see if I can do it. But here are a few other reasons as well:
- There's a lot of darkness in this world and something in my soul screams with joy every time I stumble upon brightly-colored things.
- I sometimes get distracted and wander off so people will be able to locate me more easily if I'm brightly illuminated.
- I find great amusement in the witty comments/insults that are thrown my way when wearing this color. Examples: "You look like you fought with a highlighter and lost," "Were you just outside directing traffic?" and "We're putting you at the top of the human pyramid so planes know to steer clear."
