The Adventure of the Master’s Program and the Girl in the Red Bug

Recently, I started back to school to complete my Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I am attending Ottawa University, and I have to say I am loving the classes and loving the instructors.

On Tuesday night in my Diversity class, we wrote poems, well actually, I don’t know if you can categorize it as a poem since it doesn’t rhyme? But, anyway, in the poem you had to describe yourself and each sentence had to start with “I am.” Here is who I am.

I AM

I am an aunt with a heart filled with love

I am a proud daughter and grandaughter

I am an oldest to only, birth order confused, crazy sister

I am a good book being read next to a blazing fire

I am a runner with struggling feet and muffin tops

I am Sunday supper with the family

I am a basket full of colorful Sharpies

I am an iced coffee and a Red Velvet cupcake

I am a princess longing for a tiarra

I am a hopeful romantic still waiting for the “right one”

I am a scrapbook full of memories

I am birthdays, cupcakes and cake pops

I am a blogger of adventures

I am a lover of red Bugs

I am a glass of merlot while listening to soulful jazz

I am puppies, kittens and snuggles on the couch

I am San Francisco on a spectacular day

I am a pair of fabulous kitten-heeled boots

I am Foul Play, You’ve Got Mail and Sweet Home Alabama

I am a friend

I am a pieced together quilt, made with love and care

I am a child of God that struggles and falls short

I am a girl, a woman, silly, and soulful

I have to say when I first started this activity, I stuggled. It's challenging to come up with something in 10 minutes, so when I got home I had time to reflect on who I am and the things that represent me. I think this list pretty much sums me up and what is important to me.

Who are you? I challenge you to take the time to create you own I AM poem, and post here if you would like. 

Until the next time....The Girl in the Red Bug
