Well this is sort of stalker-y. But I’ve moved about 13 different times (house wise), 4-5 different times (city-wise), and once (state-wise). I now reside in Houston of sunny Texas. Texas has so so so many cockroaches, but honestly I think I like TX more than CA. Although I do sort of miss the CA beaches. (AND NO FOR THE RECORD I HAVE NEVER SEEN A CELEBRITY. You have no idea how many people asked me this when I first moved here.) Oh, […]

I love Halloween. Or, really, any holiday. (Although Christmas? CHRISTMASSSSS.) I’ve always wanted to do one of those group costumes like… Tetris Alice in Wonderland Rainbow   What SUCKS is that two of my friends have strict Christian parents who pretty much think Halloween is evil, so they’re not allowed to trick-or-treat. Or anything special for Halloween really. (EVEN THOUGH TECHNICALLY HALLOWEEN WAS CREATED TO PROTECT FROM DEMONS NOT WORSHIP THEM AHEM. Know your legends.) My other friend is VERY reluctant to do […]

Umm, there’s nothing special to this really. My mom just really wanted a pretty name sooooo…well, yeah. Although what a sucky fictional name. In all the books I’ve read Nikki/Nicole/Nicolette is always either slutty, a bitch, evil, or insane. Really. Thanks you guys. (Brodi Ashton is my hero though whoooooo!) Did you know my name means Victory of the People? Yeah, what a lie lol. As a kid I’d come up with fictional names for myself and they spanned from Melody to Diana […]

SO THIS ONE WAS A HARD ONE. I had to confer with my friends and they threw random suggestions at me and I was just like “Yes. Yes. No. Yes.” and that’s pretty much how most of this went! But I actually REALLY  like this topic now! Scents I LOVE. Most of these are actually more natural and…mainly food. OOPS? (HA what am I saying oops. There’s an obvious reason why ) Okay so this one is just a tad cliche. You always […]

Oh there are so many directions I can go with this direction! I mean I can go all cheesy and say my friends, my personality, etc etc, but I think I’m going to go with something a bit more materialistic since I don’t really, y’know, want to call my friends my possession or anything lol. So this is actually a pretty hard one for me. There’s nothing that’s really stayed with me for more than about 2 years (with sentimental value), except for my […]

  Oooh! THIS IS AN INTERESTING ONE! Okay, well obviously since all what? 800 posts I’ve typed since I started blogging are in english. I want to say I am pretty awesome at that language, BUT WHO EVEN KNOWS HOW MANY WORDS I DO NOT KNOW. NOT ME. AHAHAHA. It’s okay, English is obviously the LANGUAGE OF FREEDOM. (Channeling my inner tumblr here)   I started learning French from Duolingo in like, November? December? Then stopped for a while, picked it up again, […]
