The daily post is a blog that runs a weekly photo challange that I've been meaning to get involved in for some time. Whether the fact that they're wordpress born and bred and I'm on blogger is an issue or not, remains to be seen! Anyway, this week the theme of the photo challenge is 'Colour' only they spelt it 'Color' but I won't hold that against them!
This week for me has been both colourful and colourless all in one go. I've had a chest infection (green) and as a result I've had no voice for most of the week making my speech, and more noticeably my classes, colourless. However, the frustration at not being about to communicate effectively has made my thoughts extremely colourful, in a way that was perhaps better left inside and unspoken, at least for the sake of my students!!
But, had I not been sick, and had I been able to be out and about, and if by some small miracle I'd been able to take photos of what I'd wanted, this week my entry to the Weekly Photo Challenge would've been of the vividly colourful, bolshy rhetoric being spouted by the man-of-the-moment up North, Mr Kim Jong-Un!
Now that I think of it, that could be why I've been sick. Sick of Kim Jong-Un and his bellicose nonsense but even more sick and tired of the world's media and their sensationalist portrayal of life on the Korea peninsula in a desperate attempt to sell more newspapers, with little or no regard for the truth.
