myLot Post Idea #1 - Introduce Yourself

Been awhile since I wrote a post, I mean an actual post and not a comment or a reply to another myLotter's post.
Anyway, I figured I'd go the route of writing a series and since we all get the occasional myLot writer's block, I figured, I'd start with post ideas.
So here it my myLot post idea #1 - introduce yourself.
This isn't just for newbies who are just starting out in the site but also for tenured myLotters who want to touch base with new friends or re-introduce themselves to old ones. Introducing yourself may not be as simple as saying something about yourself. You can and should get creative. Compare yourself to your favorite song or movie or even food. Go animalistic and compare yourself to your favorite animal! Better yet, compare yourself to a popular actor/actress so your followers and friends would have an idea how you look like (or how much of a liar you are!
).
So my myLot friends, how would you introduce yourself? Write in the comments below!

I have been known to lie
So you have to take this description with a bit of skepticism. I am a meek kitten who can shape-shift into a lioness when the occasion for nastiness requires. When I was young, many compared me to a popular local actress. Even in old age, we still look alike...grey hair, wrinkles and false teeth.![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

You do not look a day older than 40 in your profile pic!
What other writing sites are you involved in.

@allen0187 I am at postloop too. I got paid many times, but lately when I try withdrawing my $20, it says I have a lower rating than the average rating required.
Before, I was given a 3 star bonus over the top of my current rating. But lately that was gone so I went below their average rating required.
I wrote them a letter that they are just making a way so as not to pay me. Let's see what they will reply to that.

Okay, let's try, I can see no movies or song to compare with, but my favorite animals surely are felines, cats and even bigger feline, like Jaguars and Cheetah, max be because I also have green eyes. An actress? I am sure that several people told me I look like an actress, but I cannot remember which one.

my profile says a part of me, and yes, i would encourage the newbies to introduce themselves in their first discussion, before proceeding to discussing "how they can earn here", or "why don't they earn much within a few days?"

My first post was on the weather but a member who has become a dear friend said that I should do an introductory post.
So my second one was all about me![](/Content/images/emotes/happy.gif)

What can I say about myself? I'm originally from NY and now living in Pennsylvania for the last 7 years. I love coffee, reading, crafts and of course myLot. I have a large family (4 married kids with 10 grandchildren). I don't know if I could compare myself to an actress or animal but I'm sure those who know me could ![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

Perhaps I would say a chameleon, since I act or like to think I can act and play roles as required. At my age, I certainly don't resemble any actor, but so many people think they know me on the street, I have one of those faces, I guess.

@JamesHxstatic I was kidding but please do tell about the 'Bad Exorcists'. Is this the same one wherein you were a hand model?

Apart from English, I speak Indonesian as I worked there for five years, then three Indian languages. In fact, I can see some similarities between Indonesian and Tagalog - siva

Hello Alice from Brady Bunch!
I hope I do not encounter that sharp tongue of yours. A sharp wit is always welcome though.
