I had the privilege of touring the glorious “Windy City” for one wonderful day, two summers ago. I have to say that the highlight of my trip was visiting this giant metallic bean, a stainless steel artwork which reflects the Chicago skyline. In actuality, the sculpture is not supposed to resemble a quirky jellybean but rather embody the personality of the element mercury. Officially known as ‘Cloud Gate’, the structure is situated in Millennium Park. Here is the snapshot I managed to capture:
I wish I could say that my name is Cordelia or that I can recite "The Highwayman" from memory or even that I live on Prince Edward Island. While these facts are unfortunately untrue, you can probably tell by now that I am a die-hard Anne of Green Gables fan! My name is Sarena Dharshi and I can say that one of my favourite poems is Tennyson's "The Lady of Shalott" and I have indeed visited Charlottetown, P.E.I. Some other fun facts about me: I attend Western Canada High School, my favourite colour is turquoise and I am a huge Harry Potter fan. I love writing and performing spoken word poetry and I am also a blogger for The Huffington Post.
