Analogies Quiz
Analogies Quiz is quite easy if you know exactly the word, if you understand the connection between the words.
The key to solve the questions is understand what this word about and the picture about.

But I found difficulties in answering the 6th Exercise. Many new vocabularies I've never read before. So, I chose many wrong answer in this exercise. Here are the most difficult question I found.

A Sun Kissed Walk
I was on my way back home, this time I took a different way than the usual.
On the street I walked by, I recognize there were many interesting object with beautiful colours around me.
They came from natural things and man-made.
Here in my post, you can see that I mixed 2 different type of photos. Nature and man made.
But I can feel these photos having a similar colour schemes and completing each other.
From this morning walk, I learn that I need to go out and look more intense into the nature and the environment around me.
Because you'll never know when the inspiration comes.
Inspiration may be appeared anywhere by anything.
So, take a first step, and be ready to get inspired!
Thank You for reading!
