About Me

She's a virgo (though that's unimportant). Brown eyes. Born Patricia Parker in 1975 to an American father and Irish mother in Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital (Drogheda). From an early age her parents felt her strong will. She feels as she means to go on. Upon the cusp of her nineteenth birthday she legally changed her name, not because she felt any paticular displeasure towards her family ties, rather a simple dislike of her name's abbreviation, 'P-P'. She found it unbecoming. Eventually settling on Nora Belle she felt her new name's abbreviation, 'N-B', seemed more important to her at the time. Highly intelligent, she would never claim to know anything. She loves the warmth and joy she associates with Christmas, though still feels prone to depression around Grafton Street. Music makes her happy.
