This time last year Caitlin from A Little Daydreamer held a two-week challenge. Since then she has grown from a relatively small blog, to one with a much bigger follower, and is not just a blogger, but a vlogger too!
And this year, not wanting to disappoint, she has set up a new 2 week-challege for this summer too! It will be a series of prompts, sent every other day, for you to interpret as you wish, or as per her instructions.
This first challenge is this…
I would like you to create something that represents you in some way. It could be as simple as writing a [insert number] facts about me post. Or, it could be a story of something that inspired or influenced you as a person. You could even share a piece of artwork that you feel a connection to, whether it was created by you or not.
The possibilities are endless and you can go as “off-topic” as you like, as long as it has a strong relation to you and lets us get to know you better.
So I decided to write this…
MeWho am I?
I’m Ritu, that’s me
A great big ball
Of contradictions
A 40-something body
with a 20-something mind
A nice little
Eastern girl
Caught up in
The Western world
A girl so proud
Of her traditions
Yet eager to break
All conventions
A homely, happy
Family lass
With an outgoing,
Extroverted personality
An Indian girl
Who can’t stand chilli
Preferring a roast
Or a plate of spaghetti
I’m happy as I am
But I want to lose weight
I love all my curves
It’s the wobbles I hate
A chatterbox,
Talking ten to the dozen
With shoulders to lean on
And ears to listen
A teacher by profession
Yet a scholar of life
A mother, and a daughter
A loving, faithful wife
I know how to be respectful
But I have a naughty streak
I’m both fiery and feisty
But equally mild and meek!Ritu 2016
There you have it, Ritu in verse!
