• ‟ The way it works for me is my sight and sound senses are combined. Every sound I associate with a color and every color I associate with a sound...

• ‟ I was 13 years old at music school talking to my teacher. I can't quite remember what it was I was trying to describe, but I do remember my music teacher saying to me, 'Do you have synesthesia?'

• ‟ It's funny because I think, as a general rule, that people seem to think that if you do lots of different things over the course of, like, a timeline, it means that you kind of disregard what you did before.
