I Can't Live Without My...
Tangent thoughts. I love being able to trail away from one thought to another, because it sparked an old memory or a new idea. This is where all my creativity comes from.
If I Were a Color I would be:
Lime green
How would you describe your style?
My style is accidentally artsy. I never buy clothes with the intention to look cool or fit in. But for some strange reason, it always seems to work well together. *shrug* If it didn't work, I'd still rock it 'til it did.
Aspirations/Dreams/Goals:
Of course you'd laught if I told you that someday I'll be a bigger name than Bill Gates, The Beatles and Oprah Winfrey combined. [insert an arena of laughter here]. But that's not my goal. I want to be the best Neima Abdulahi I can be. That means waking up every morning with the will to do better than yesterday.
