ah. Well it is because my blood is weird in the way that it doesn't circulate very well. The condition where my hands turn blue/purple/white is called Reynaud's disease.. it means like, when I'm too cold, my body takes blood away from my hands to give to my organs. Yay!
the name for blueish hand/feet is acrocyanosis. It just means there's not enough oxygen in my blood in extremites.
