Great. Wattpad only lets you show links. I'm actually gonna complain about that. Ask for a feature to just upload an image from your computer.

Okay, so about a month ago, something came to mind, and it COMPLETELY CHANGED THE WAY I LOOKED AT MY SECOND GRADE "EXPERIANCE" BECAUSE THAT'S A MORE FUN WAY TO SAY IT. :D

So here's the story of that part of my past known as second grade: At my elementary school, there were two playgrounds, one for grades K through 2, and one for grades 3 through 5. Each playground had a "blacktop" which was just, like, black roadlike substance in a square, and the little kids' one was fenced in. Behind the little kids' blacktop, there were two trees that were pretty thin, and kids were always kicking them. Eventually, one tree fell over and its roots were no longer completely in the ground. Fun. A teacher took the tree to somewhere we don't know. So, some of my friends and I started the "Nature Club" to protect the remaining tree. I thought we should have an official book to keep records of stuff and things like that, so I brought one of my many notebooks from home. The first thing I did was take a marker and write "Nature Club" on it. I didn't know why at the time, but I just felt like I should write the number eight beside it. I just felt like it belonged there. So I did. I'll put a picture at the top of this if I can. The Nature Club didn't last long, though. After a couple days, we came to the tree during recess to find that the last tree had been taken down as well. Yay. One of my friends and I still used the notebook for random stuff for the rest of that year, though. And I have it here.

NOW, what exactly is the point of telling this story, you might ask? The number 8. I never would of guessed it would be so important. See, the color of 8 and the letter "B" are practically the same. They're a bluish color with a heavy gray tint. The other letters in "Nature Club" happened to fit this sort of dull color scheme, so that's what I must have been thinking. But of course, I never really paid too much attention to the colors. Those weren't my direct thoughts.

Wow. Mystery solved. Crazy. All because of my grapheme-color synesthesia.

So I hope that was interesting enough. Yeah. It's late. Very. This shall be boring.
