Listen "Riya's Ramblings: Ep 50 - What have I been up to?"
Episode Synopsis
It's been a few weeks since my last episode - and that's because I got really busy with school, soccer and other activities.
This one is episode 50 - the big 5 0. Wow! Thanks for all your support and encouragement!
Here's the deets:
* 9 weeks over in middle school! Yay!
* I think I like it. Figure I will stay for a couple of years. :) Ha!
* We visited Austin for a couple of days. First time in hotel after 18 months! I will share more details later but we saw bats! Thousands of bats! It was AWESOME!
* I am playing flag football at school. I like watching it more than playing it but it's quite an experience.
* I am part of the debate club at school. My older brother is really good and I'm hoping to learn from him! I am planning to participate in extemporaneous speaking and oratory. A friend and I are also going to do some lip sync. :) This should be a lot of fun. I will let you know how I do in my first competition.
* We just did 'garba' - a traditional Indian dance that I didn't get a chance to do last year. It was SO MUCH FUN!
* I love watching talent shows like 'America's Got Talent' with my Dad. And I binge "This is Us" with my mom. It's a serious family drama
And we all love to see "Bob Hearts Abishola" - it's a fun, quirky show that shows us aspects of Nigerian culture in the US.
Previous riddle: I am ahead of you but you can't see me. What am I?
Shout out to Disha for getting this right. The answer is 'your future'.
This week's riddle: It has keys, but no locks. It has space, but no room. You can enter, but can’t go inside. What is it?
