The Grammar Whore

About Me


MyHeritage : Family tree - Genealogy - Celebrity - Collage - Morph
My name is Nadia. My ambitions are to love, to serve and to nurture. I am clumsy. I drop, spill, lose and forget things often. I frequently get in God’s way. Fortunately for me, He’s very understanding about this. I think my strengths and weaknesses balance me out fairly well. I pride myself in being human. I love the Earth. I love the thought of worms writhing through the very same substance that was used to create the matter that is my flesh. The only difference between them is the breath of life, which will depart from me some day leaving my body as nothing but the dust of the Earth. I love to see the inside of people's houses, bedrooms, wallets and offices. The way a person personalizes his or her own surroundings says a lot about him or her. I have a ball exploring living spaces. I am a collector of sorts. I tend to keep other people's junk and I never throw anything away. I am American born, but I am also half Nigerian. I pride myself in my heritage even though I have yet to visit Nigeria... Myspace Layout Generator-Layoutgen.com

My Interests

Dance, art, music, culture (particularly Arab and Indian culture), poetry, toys, tea sets, dreams, long stories, things that are new, play dough, photography, action figures, video games, the insides of people's minds, the histories of individuals, thoughts and feelings, children's books, living spaces, gimmer tag, interesting things that are not dull and all sorts of things. Annoyances: Annoyances: People trying to pass off words like, "irregardless" and "conversate." People confusing the word "irony" with "coincidence." The insistent blinking of an unset digital clock. Unmade beds, buzzing sounds, dripping water faucets, uneven table settings, people not knowing the history of Smurfette, the mispronounciation of my name (first, middle or last), various grammatical errors that should have been learned well by at least third grade, people me tapping me on the shoulder and many, many more things.

I'd like to meet:

I love to meet and get to know new people. Whenever I meet a new person I try to remind myself that he or she is another person created by God. I like to find out all about people and their backgrounds. I like to find out about their minds. I like to love people. I wish I could meet Mr.Rogers. He was such an awesome man. If could go back in time to before he died and meet him that would be the most amazing thing ever. I also would like to meet Gracie Mescal and Rachel Wagster. I've heard a lot about these two young gilrs and have taken a great interest in them and a liking to them before even getting to know them. I like to think that one day I will be great friends with them both. Or at least pretty good pen pals. I wouldn't mind meeting Eminem either. I think he's pretty sweet. ..

Music:

I dislike when I ask people what kind of music they listen to and they say everything. This tells me nothing. A person's taste in music says a lot about him or her. Everyone has likes and dislikes. No one listens to every single kind of music. There are far too many types of music in this world to enjoy them all properly. My ears prefer the sounds of: Alee, And One, A Perfect Circle, Apocalyptica, Apoptygma Berzerk, Bach, Beethoven, The Beetles, The Birthday Massacre, Britney Spears, The Buckwheat Boys, Celtic Women, The Cranberries, The Crystal Method, The Cure, Depech Mode, The Dresden Dolls, The Dust Brothers, Eminem, Enya, The Faint, Flogging Molly, Gwen Stefani, Imogen Heap, Jamie Foxx, Justin Timberlake, Luther Vandross, Madonna, Marilyn Manson, Marvin Gaye, mewithoutYou, Michael Jackson, Modest Mouse, Mozart, Nine Inch Nails, ohGr, Psalters, Queen, Rasputina, Regina Spektor, Revolting Cocks, Saul Williams, The Servant, Skinny Puppy, System of A Down, The Tiny, Usher, VNV Nation, Zeromancer and plenty of other things. A taste for crappy music can be acquired, much like a taste for expensive things like caviar. I usually begin to like crappy music if I listen to the radio.

Television:

I hardly watch TV anymore but when I do, I love cartoons. My favorites are Family Guy, Invader Zim, Aqua Teen Hunger Force and mostly all things on Adult Swim unless, of course, it's anime. I also like sit coms like Seinfeld and Friends. I hate the news because it's so depressing, but I keep watching it anyway. Mostly CNN. I hate that Lifetime channel beause as soon as I see part of a stupid show or movie, I get drawn in and hypnotized into watching the rest of it. Then I ususally end up crying before it's over.Take the quiz:
Which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are You?

Michelangelo
Awe YAH! You're the party dude! You enjoy goofing off and pulling pranks! Life's a beach! People NEED you in order to lighten up! Happiness isn't a destination, it's simply a way of life! You like games, sports, and many different activities involving showing off your athletic skills! Does annoying your sisters and brothers count? Ehehe! You enjoy being the center of attention, the star of the show, and the known joker of the group! Gotta make 'em laugh!
