It's time for a reacquaintance. I haven't introduced myself for some time on this blog and the masterminds of blogger tell me I've got some new friends around here. I could pretend like I don't notice, but I've never been one for being discreet. So WELCOME new friends.
1. I started using my birth name, Nichole, after I graduated high school, because my professors always called me by that name. I got tired of having to tell them at the beginning of the semester I prefered Nicki, it just stuck better as Nichole.
2. When I was in fifth grade, i was taking karate and I was sitting too close to the teacher, who was showing us a kick and knocked my tooth out. It was hanging by a string. But all in all, I'm glad she did because it was actually loose.
3. I'm working hard on a goal I made a little while ago to make people feel good about themselves. Sometimes it's easy. Sometimes it's hard. Mostly it's hard when the people I am dealing with are idiots.
4. I suck at: texting back, calling back, and emailing back. I usually have it on vibrate so sometimes I actually don't hear it. I'd rather have someone text me than call me. I never leave my phone, if it's not beside me I will actually freak out.
5. Below you will see the picture of the guy I am dating. His name is Calvin. I don't always call him that. From here on out we refer to him by his nickname "My Love". We met on a dating site and completely hit it off! Our love story doesn't end there, He told me I was the sweetest girl he has ever met. I told him to come up and make me dinner with his shirt off.
6. For a living I am a blogger.
7. Just kidding about number six. I'm a journalist. I love writing and being in a wheelchair my options are already pretty limited. I really want to someday own my own media company, like have my own newspaper or magazine.
8. I live with my grandparents. they pretty much adopted me, even though legally they just had guardianship over me. I took their name, and they raised me since I was 18 months old. I never knew they were not really my birth parents until I was 16. But it didn't matter to me of those circumstances because I have always know them to be mom and dad.
9. I was born into a family of two kids. But being raised by my grandparents I was the only younger child. This means I never had to fight for attention and was spoiled a lot. I can still put on a show. One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to always tell acquaintances and friends not smart enough to know better that it was my birthday and soak in the attention all day long. I'm messed up. I know.
10. I can be bossy.
11. I actually don't have my license. Meaning I'm always asked "why not?" well because I haven't yet learned hand controls and/or don't have a wheelchair accessible vehicle. However I have ATVs and off road vehicles I drive still.
12. The best part of my day is the hour at night before I have to go to bed and I cuddle up with James and watch TV and giggle and flirt and drift off to sleep.
14. The worst part of my day is 5:40 am when my alarm clock rings. If I had known as a college student that I would be waking up at 5:40 am when I had a full time job you better believe I never even would have considered graduating.
