COFFEE, BOOKS, AND MUSIC!

Hey, reader. I’m Rithika. Just a teen, living a rather normal life. I can’t say that I’m normal though. Agreeing to the fact that I’m an Aquarian, my mind works in thousand different ways. Has multiple tabs open. Always. And I don’t mind it, because I love the vast range of working of my brain. Loving fiction didn’t come as much of a realization. But I didn’t know the depth of my love until I felt super motivated to write a novel of my own. That’s going well, thanks for thinking about it. Coffee and music help me massively to tune out from the outside world and drive me to write. Also, they accompany me when I struggle with a block. I haven’t read many books, but from what I’ve lived, I discovered that I loved books. A very few people who are close to me know that I have a short span of concentration when it comes to doing something I’m not genuinely excited about. Hand me a book and ask me to read it? Maybe an Earthquake would jostle me out of it. I started reading to preserve my English, and I think it’s working. What do you say? Also, I wrote a poem in my eleventh grade. That was my first. Ironically, it was also about my first crush. It was never serious, but that day, words started popping up in my head, and I gave into it. Because why not? I guess with every poem I wrote, I found myself more and more in them. I took up different kinds of love stories I’d read about and tried writing a poem on each one. Hit different audiences in heart with one or the other. Mission accomplished! Never had a love story for me. Is there a type that exists between Prince Charming and creepy? If yes, leave your number in the comments (XD)! I undoubtedly love it when people remember little things about me because I do that with them unintentionally. That’s who I am! Coming back to my writing, I’m seriously thinking of a career. Is it too risky? My parents have no problem with it. Neither does my angelic elder brother. I’ve always felt lucky to have my family how it was, no kidding. But when I was ready to jump into a career that wasn’t mainstream and I still had all my family to back me up, I felt the luckiest. Also, I’m a multi-talented person and I’m going to let that be here. I sing, dance, write, talk and keep talking. Neither do I judge, nor do I complain. But I’d do anything in my power to stand my ground, no matter what. I’m not intimidating as well, opposed to so many’s opinions. I’m known to and I accept to have random knowledge about completely useless things. Unpaid therapies, check. Non-sugar coated feedback, check. Silencing myself when I’m angry, check.

See how I’ve written about completely unrelated things all throughout? That’s how I’m wired, very truly.

I’m interesting, I know (XD)! Stay tuned, and happy reading!

Too many things to say with which I don't wanna tire my lips, hence I write!
