Word Association #99 (New year edition)

I’ve done a few Word Associations with you over the last while, but as you’ll see from the title this is another New Year word association today. It may be a New Year edition word association, but it’s the same format, so I’m going to throw some words at you  and I want you to note down the first word that comes into your mind when you read each word.

So here goes…

  1. 2020
  2. 2021
  3. 2nd January
  4. Weather
  5. Bells
  6. Party
  7. Celebrate
  8. Family
  9. Future
  10. Christmas

So how did you get on with those words? Did you find it easy? Did your answers surprise you or were they just as you expected?

Well here’s my responses to my questions:

  1. Coronavirus
  2. Vaccination
  3. Old firm game
  4. Freezing
  5. Hogmanay
  6. None
  7. Alone
  8. Zoom
  9. Hope
  10. Over

Were any of your answers the same as mine? Did any of my answers confuse you? Did any of your own answers confuse you?

I’ve said in previous word association posts that I find I get a bit stressed when I’m doing them as I put a lot of pressure on myself not to over think my answers! Are you relaxed when you do them or do you find it stressful too?

I still believe that when we respond with the first words that come into our minds, our answers tell us a lot about our emotional state, and what’s important to us at that particular point in time.

Bearing all this in mind, review your answers, does my theory hold true?

By the way, if you want me to explain any of my answers, just ask!
