A New Start? Yes, please.

Wooo weeee! It's been nearly 5 years since I've visited this Blogger page. Life and time have flown by like crazy. During my absence, I have graduated from school, had a baby boy, and become a full-time mama. Life is sure a whirlwind sometimes, I tell ya.

Now that I have time to dedicate to my creative endeavors (when I'm not running after my toddling boy!!), I would like to share my crazy life experience with the Blogosphere as I struggle, as humbly as I can, through this thing called "motherhood." 

In pursuance of my new start, I'm excitedly brainstorming how to redefine my blog. This includes how to present myself on the Internets, and how to create a community around myself. Stay-at-Home mommy-hood can often be a very seclusive thing, so I'm trying to break out of that nonsense! No thanks on that. I want to connect with other like-minded mommies, and share our experiences. 

So join me on this fun journey, shall you?

With Love,

Nikki

Come on, introductions are fun!

I decided that it was about time I created a blog of my own. I've got a lot of things to say to you, internet world! I plan to devote this page to what I'm listening to, reading, watching or eating- and, if I'm feeling creative enough, what I've created!

Let's start with a little introduction, shall we? My name is Nicole, I'm 22. I'm married to a wonderful man named Rafael (Raf for short), and have a 8 month old little girl named Diella. I'm slowly working on getting my Bachelors from ASU. I'm LDS, or for those of you who don't know what that means, "Mormon." I've been a vegetarian for 5 years, and absolutely love animals. I have a cat, named Ryloh who is 4 years old. Just recently purchased a home in Tempe, that I absolutely love. It's a labor of love, home ownership! Lots of little projects to fill my time with. I am a music connoisseur. I find that music makes every activity more interesting. I love going to shows and record stores. I love to read. My favorite read is The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, morbid as that may be. My favorite TV shows are The Office and Law and Order: SVU. I love to laugh! I'm a paralegal at a firm that handles nonprofit legal issues. I aspire to be an attorney one day- though not a sleazy one, I promise.

I love life & I can't wait to get to know some new people! :)
