Hello to all you lovely Hivers!! I'm finally here introducing myself after a whole lot of procrastination. I was asked to write up an introductory post by my friend who introduced me to the HIVE community. It literally took me seven working days to be finally posting this. I had a moment of epiphany as to how unaware I am of myself hahah! But here you go!
So cutting to the chase, the name's Shama. In my close knit group, my friends love calling me Shammi, Shammu or Shammesh facepalm. I was born and brought up in the coastal urban line of Mangalore and spent 23 years of my life in this place. This city has witnessed the craziest and insane part of me. Talking about academics, I'm currently pursuing a professional course and undergoing training for the same while trying my luck in fashion modelling.
Besides making a profession in legal arena, if there's something that has always had my heart and soul is my love for art. I'm an aficionado of all things artistic. I've always been the most lively when I indulge myself in some form of art be it dance, music, painting, craft, home decor etc. The very reason why I love visiting flea markets. I think of myself as the jack of all trades, master of none hahah!! I believe this world is full of unimaginable beauty. Keep your eyes open. Because whatever you see can inspire you. While we're at it, I'll take the opportunity of sharing some of my artwork.
My life took a turn for the better last year when I first tried my hands on fashion modelling. Not to mention, I've been the most camera shy person I've ever known. I was such a noob. But there I was, posing for my first shoot ever, as nervous as a cat. I can't articulate my feelings I had at that moment. And none of this would've happened if my friends did not push my limits. Here are a few images from my first shoot.

Not that it's important, but I'm writing this as I'm listening to a 1960s bollywood song that I can't stop listening to. Ah, my love for these retro bollywood songs are never ending. Also, I enjoy moonlight strolls on beach and participation dance (ugh, how much I miss them). Titters Before I forget to mention, through my modelling journey I've had the pleasure of meeting some of amazing people and working with some of the best photographers in Mangalore. Here's a virtual tour of my little modelling journey (Just a glimpse I've so much more to share in the upcoming days if I get the time to write about them).
I'm a people person and absolutely love socialising. So it's needless to say that I love chilling with my homies!
So that was a brief introduction of myself. I'd like to thank for introducing me to HIVE. Looking forward to share my life experiences on this platform.
Till then, keep exploring!!
