Chalk and Cheese or well maybe just chalk. / 09.24.09, 08:24 PM

I hate Chalk. There I said it and I already feel better. Chalk scares me. I hate the feel of it and alongside cotton wool it gives me the creeps. The sounds of someone writing with chalk sends tingles up my spine – all in all I basically avoid chalk whenever I see it.

For the past 2 Saturdays for neighbourhood outreach I’ve been decorating our sidewalk with the help of the 4 girls from next door and my landlords nephew and neices. We’ve been drawing flowers and butterflies and cars all over the street.
We’ve also been retro and revisited the childhood classic game – hopscotch.

And all of these drawings and games have been done in guess what – sidewalk chalk!!!!!!!!

I still hate chalk.
It still gives me the creeps.
But I love how it enables me to engage with my neighbours and helps me build small steps of friendship.
