I am supposed to be helping her prepare for the GRE. Instead, we spend most of the time talking about color. The color of my clothes and shoes. The color of other people's clothes and shoes. The color of the sky when the sun has dipped just low enough to cause red light to bend the most and then, voilà, a sunset. Weike Wang
About This Quote

There are so many things in life that can be dull. Most of the time it is the little things in life that make the most difference. These small details are often missed by us but are important to others. Some people tend to associate these small details with love.

The fact that she is spending time with me while I am helping her study for the GRE. Having a conversation about colors, even when there are other things that should be done, shows me that she is interested in me and cares for me.
