Your Personality is Represented By What Surrounds You
I often wonder if I know who I really am. I have always struggled with the questions at interviews when I am asked to describe myself. But the thought occurred to me today that in order to remind myself exactly who it is I am at my very core, I just need to glance around my apartment.
My extremely comfortable couch with my computer nearby reminds me that I like to be comfortable when I have a chance to relax while blogging or working on little things. Comfort is essential to me as I have many aches and pains, and I can never get enough of a good couch to sprawl on after a long day.
My red reading chair, draped with a fuzzy blanket and a table beside it covered in my books that I am reading, reminds me that continuing a life engulfed in literature and books that are in my hands and not on a screen is important to me. To own a book in my eyes is a privilege and makes a historic mark in my journey to learn more.
My dark wooden work table where I do all my homework, where there is no time to put my feet up, just a need for a solid surface to spread on all my work and focus. This reminds me that I am a hard worker and I love to get things done and achieve everything I can.
The paintings on my walls around my apartment that were lovingly painted by my mother throughout the years and she no longer has space for them, reminds not only of my love for art but of my family and the soft spot I have for them. My moms painting has always brought us close and it is a reminder of that.
And lastly, I see Mushu my bearded dragon, and Gobi my fish and this reminds me that I am an animal lover no matter what, and if I can't have animals because I am not on the farm, I will find a way to have some in the city.
Look around yourself and see what statement pieces that surround you say about your personality and self. You might be surprised at your interpretation.

haha! Very nice post @teggit - It certainly is an interesting exercise you propose. I will give it a go soon.
Have you been to the HHG lately?
I am fine just migraines have kept me from my computer screen. I will be back at it as soon as possible!
Hi @teggit - @ainie.kashif and I both missed you in the last round, so we decided to come "see" where you were.
Yip, migraines can be such a bummer! I do hope that you will be feeling on top of the world very soon. :))
Thanks for letting us you were not feeling great.
Hi @rlt47, yes we missed @teggit so much, thanks for reaching out to her.
Hi @teggit, Hello Hello Hello... you must be having lots of assignments and homework. Say hi to Moomoo and Gobi for me please.
Here's a fast one to recap about me. This is my living room that represent me. A colorful jovial and creative minded person lol... not so creative actually just so-so. Okay @teggit, take care and have fun there :)
Isn't weird that the person that we know the most are ourselves, but at the same time we struggle to know who we are?
Also, Mushu has such a fancy and pretty home!
Hiii! I have been missing you around here. I hope you are doing ok.
Hey girl I am back. What contests you find lately!?
Hello! Welcome back! I don't know, I'm kinda lost on Steemit, I'm not even posting much because I have blackouts everyday. Last week there was a day when from the 24 hours I only had 3 of electricity. If I find something I'll let you know :)
Awe how come you are having such blackouts!?
Lack of maintenance in the infrastructure of the whole country. Applies for electricity, communication in general, roads, food distribution... Everything sucks. I'm incredibly disappointed and tired, I'm trying to put my best face, but I'm always cranky.
I am so sorry to hear that. I wish there was something I could do. If you come to Canada I would take care of you!
Thank you! I was planning in asking Mushu to move in, but the space might be too small for both of us.
Mushy doesn't need space just your body heat.
