Color, The Spelling Of American English



"color" is the american spelling as for british english, it would b "colour" . above is the color of cheese + chocolate cake that i had few hours ago at a restaurant called 'cast away' located north of downtown Los Angeles . the other picture is me wondering what am i, what have i created of myself . its weird feeling, for i have been living in this city of 17million ppl for more than 16mths . months after months, the location is the same, but the feeling and d color of d city month after months change, i remembered the 1st day, d color was white and was so eagerly to b painted diffrent colors, as i move along, somedays it was gray n black with d clouds, somedays it was blue clouds and happy endings, some were tears of sadness n loneliness, so many colors, d colors of my 1st summer was great too, full of excitment and yet so little cash i had in my pocket, even till the extent it was hard to buy myself a meal . but recently d colors has been more stable, its not changing so drastically . after d recovery of my arm, iv been ballin alot at the beach, hitting Js, breakin ankles .

like 2nite at d restaurant dining with my mum and caterine, theres 17million ppl in this city, and what fate n luck we had 2 b there eating n smiling together at that table . i had dreams of living overseas, n im currently in d dream, till sometimes i feel like i want to b in a dream that i forget that actually im in the dream itself .

on monday may 1st, mexicans and immigrants are gonna go on strike, most of them not going to school and are not gonna work, even the ones working at my restaurant, that is wat they have said and plan on tv n in off tv . if that were to really happen i wouldnt imagine how much money would b lost in the economic market of Los Angeles . they are goin on strike cz many of em have been living in the states for years and still are branded and exile 'illegal' . im really lookin fwd for the outcome and the extent of their doing .

- god speed to the colors of Los Angeles -

Hahaha I used to get my lecturers so mad at me because I use American spelling "Color - specialiZation - cell phone (not mobile) etc.etc." which is a BIG BIG sin here in Australia. We don't like Americans.... :P
