So here we go - new fish in the sea! New person on steem it! New posts, new content, new opportunities are about to happen. I’m so pumped!
Like on any other blogging space or when you are joining new community it’s rather than applaudable to introduce yourself - to build yourself a picture of who are you dealing with. So here it goes a decent introductory blog post about me.
My name is weird. It's Rūta. It’s means virginity (ha!) and also this very awkward flower which can burn you with it’s self made liquid.
You can meet me strolling around Vilnius streets (capital of Lithuania). I’ve been living for 9 838 days as I’m writing this post.
I was a true tomboy and such a rebel child when I was growing up (thanks to my male cousins and friends). One of my most vivid childhood memory was when I sneaked in some kind of polish kindergarten and acted like I supposed to be there. I ate lunch, played with kids (even though I had no idea what they were talking about), I even went for a nap for couple of hours. When I came back home - my mom was about to call the police. But that was super fun! Worth it!
As a teenager. Oh boy… I went through emo stage. I dyed my hair black, every time I went to school the first thing I did was - putting my black eyeliner. It wasn't even nicely did eyeliner - it was a huge blob on both of my eyeballs. I was so cool back then, I even had my first online emo boyfriend. I have never seen him in real life, but I didn’t care.
After finishing high school I was thinking what should I study. I was so lost, that I went for law. I'm regret this so much since I was quite creative persona. But my parents and society washed my brain and I dived in studying law (international and EU law as specialisation) for 5 freakin’ years! Now I have paper which tells me that I have qualification which meets society framed criteria, which tells me that I’m “smart". Kids don’t go to university! It’s a trap!
Graduated university. What’s next? Well I can tell you - shit just got real. Therefore, completely lost Rūta came into play. I was so lost that I even went into the light depression. When I didn’t want to do anything.
You know who saved me from going completely insane? Swing dancing. Now, hold on! I know, the first thought which comes to your head is - swingers. What if I say “I go to swing party we dance shag and change partners?” You’re so naughty! But that was a real story when I had a small chit chat with one British guy. I wish you could have seen his face when he heard that. Nevertheless, I will most definitely talk about swing dancing and will give you all necessary information about swing era and and the dance itself which I’m madly in love with. It just saved my life. Literally.
So here I am. At this day - still a little bit lost, but trying to move forward.
I will post more about: motivation, dancing, drawing, traveling, photos and videos, art, food, healthy lifestyle, fashion and fitness.
I want to keep and maintain this blog not only for every single one of you, but for me as well. I hope this new thing which I’m trying with writing will make me motivated, positive and keep me reaching of becoming the very best version of myself. And I’m more than pleased that you’ll be able to experience my journey together with me.
Thank you.
I already like you.
Roots.
