#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am an Underdog

Some people are meant to lead. Some are meant to follow. I am and have always been a follower aka an underdog. I wrote about this in this 2016 post and nothing will ever change that, not my mom, not my aunt, not even Toastmasters.

Having been raised by my mom and her family most of my life, I often call myself the black sheep of her family.

There was a wind storm last week – 70 mile-per-hour gusts blowing past the protective mountain ranges. It made my Wednesday drive to work a bit treacherous yet interesting at the same time.

CFFC: Shiny
I was on a field trip last Sunday on a quest to search for spring and what did I find, a bunch of kids chasing bubbles. It’s been a while since I’ve blown bubbles but I think this is so much better. Let the breeze carry the bubbles.

Believe me when I say this, I did not used to be a rebel. I was a goody-two-shoes who did everything I was asked to do and please my mom was my life until…

What was the last TV show you binge-watched? If you don’t watch TV (congratulations by the way) what’s the last thing you binged ON?

I may seem quiet on the outside but really, I am just an awkward conversationalist with a vivid imagination and a loud mind.

When I got my mountain bike about a month ago, when I was assembling it, my aunt came over and said, “Just sell it already, get some cash back.”

This week, on Lens-Artists Challenge #144, Tina has challenged us with the topic of “Taking flight.”

“I have never met anyone messier than you. I don’t know how you can live like this,” my mom would often say.

I know I wrote about how I was capable of so many things but really, I’m someone who’s called “Jack of all trades and master of none.”

There are some weird questions on this week’s Share Your World, just a word of caution…

I am pretty klutzy, period. My mom used to singsong “clumsy, clumsy girl” whenever I fell down as a little girl. I think I fell because my mind was somewhere else, at least that’s why I fell and scraped my knees the last time, which was about a year ago.
Continue reading “#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am Klutzy”#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am Jovial
I consider myself to be a jovial person. It doesn’t take much to make me laugh, even if I feeling angry at the moment. I sometimes dislike this ability – to go from anger to laughter like a flip of a coin.

This week for the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge, we are challenged to share some colorful photos to represent the spring-like April.

I have often been told by my mom I am a patient person. “I don’t think I have the patience like yours to complete a 2000-piece jigsaw puzzle.” She’d say. So that’s what I’ve always thought – I am a patient person.
Continue reading “#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am Impatient”#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am Hopeful

I don’t recall when I developed this ridiculously hopeful attitude toward life – that everything will get better eventually, that something is better than nothing, glass is half-full kind of person.
Continue reading “#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am Hopeful”#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I am working on being Generous

“Don’t be so selfish,” my mom would chide whenever I refuse to help or whenever I refuse to share food with somebody. I hated being called that because I feel like that’s all I’ve been doing my whole life – sharing and never getting enough for myself.

This world makes me feel small sometimes especially when I’m in a wide-open landscape.
Continue reading “CFFC: Size Comparison”#AtoZChallenge 2021 – I Have Feelings, Too

When I was in middle school or high school, my mom would often point out teasingly that I have a low EQ (emotions quotient), sort of like low IQ except with emotions.
