Two of my most favorite colors are blue and green. The other one is purple. I like the cold hue of blue. Everytime I see this color, I feel like diving into the ocean, falling into the sky, standing on the mountaintop, or bathing in the rain. Likewise, I like the naturally harmonious hue of green. Everytime I see this color, I feel like relaxing on a sunny garden or playing in the fields. Having mentioned it, purple reminds me of the sky and the coolness of air at evening and dawn.

Oftentimes, I wonder if I can combine blue and green to cut down my confusion. Fortunately, I liked the tertiary color, green-blue (different from blue-green). But, I like the term to be represented in one word. I've found the right term -- turquoise. Turquoise is a flexible color ranging from pale green to greenish blue.

Hey! I've found out something about the color. This made use "turquoise" for my blog name. One personality test from Tickle entitled "What Color is your Aura?" revealed the meaning of turquoise after I took it.

"We don't need a psychic to tell us that you're giving off a Turquoise vibe. Turquoise types are often intelligent, energetic leaders. Vibrant and dynamic, you take center stage wherever you go; people are naturally drawn in by your charismatic nature. You love to learn, and you excel at remembering facts and figures. More than likely, you're a go-getter with your eyes on the prize. Respect and influence tend to come to you easily, but that doesn't mean you sit around waiting for them. What fun is achieving something if getting there isn't a challenge? Always pushing your limits, you'd be a natural on Survivor — a healthy competitive instinct and a willingness to take risks means you usually reach your goals. You like to look, feel, and act your best; if all those ducks are in a row, nothing's gonna get in your way."

Well, that description fits my character. I consider daydreaming as a relaxing but essential pastime. I allows me to think about good things and the future. Abstract ideas often become splendid ones!
