well this is my karma post

hello, my name's Nyika, you say that Ny-e-ka by the way! I'm 16 years old and I'm doing my AS levels, which are about as fun as they sound. I am having a coleslaw roll as a snack right now.

I am a self-certified hippie, I don't smoke, I can drink, bu only when it's not my alcohol, and as yet I've taken no drugs. I love the outdoors, the sea, montains, nature... I love this planet, and I'm extremely environmentally concious because of this. I want to be a conservationist after studying geography at university.

I was bullied a lot when I was younger, I was depressed for a year and was seriously messed up because of it. Two years on I am strong mentally and the happiest person some people know. I don't have too many friends, but until I go to university, I'm happy with my lot.

University is where it's all gonna happen, maaaaaan. Well, so I hope. I am saving for my glastonbury ticket so I can meet people like me. I live in a stupidly conservative area. I want to go tp Plymouth, a uni so far away I can live a little without my parents knowing. I can grow dreads, I can do a bit of weed, I can work til 3 in the mornings and my patrents won't know. Oh, and I can go vegetarian, whcih isn't possible right now.

I'm a weird person, I have maps on my walls rather than pictures of bands. I'm a massive music fan, I love madness, The Jam, Peter Bjorn and John, Grateful Dead, Phish, The Kooks, an amazing local band called Exit Avenue, Newton Faulkner (I'm pretty much in love with him), Jack Johnson and lots of stuff that I can't remember but love to listen to.

I've never had a boyfriend, I've been single all my life and still waiting to meet someone who's right. I'm slightly impatient, but I'm also shy, I am too scared to flirt with people!

Other than that, I burn joss sticks A LOT, i read lots and lots and lots of books, I crochet hats I bordering on being a caffeine addict. My myspace is www.myspace.com/differentisgood. As a whole I don't agree with myspace, buts it's a personal page I can vent my feelings on.

I hope you've enjoyed getting to know me!

Hello Nyika What was the last thing you ate and why?

 

Nyika, hi there. What does your name mean?

 

The last thing I ate was a chocolate mousse because I eat chocolate mousses for breakfast most days.
My name comes from the Nyika plateau in Zambia and apparently means little world!

 

Have you travelled about much? Been abroad?

 

I've never been abroad, but I've been over most of the UK now. I really want to travel, I hate where I live. I wnat to live in the West country or the Yorkshire Dales!

 

any more questions?

 

Hi
What maps do you have on your walls?

 

I have 2 maps of the british isles, a physical one and a freebie one from coast, and I ahve a massive map of the world on my ceiling. I also have a map of some caves in Yorkshire for some reason...

 

Have you ever experienced the blind uncomprehending rage of a psychopathic killer?

 

Well, you never know when you might need it!

What book are you reading, or the last one you read?

 

Have you ever experienced the blind uncomprehending rage of a psychopathic killer?
Fortunately I am unscathed from my experience with the blind uncomprehending rage of a psychotic killer. I just put 'The lovely bones' down and had a glass of coke.

What book are you reading, or the last one you read?
I am currently reading one of my mums sagas called 'Corner House Girls' cos I've read everything else. It's fairly good, I read everything and anything.
The last book I read was 'How to be Good' by Nick Hornby, you ahev to love his books, just so funny, yet meaningful.

 

I'll just add a bit to the post. Sometimes I feel that I shouldn't be 16 because I hven't had much experience with life. Soemtimes I feel about 12, and I often look it too.
I dress in a VERY hippieish way, I'm pretty renowned for it at school. Today I have on a tam (just need the dreads!), a multicouloured cardigan jumper thingy, a top with shells on, a tiered denim skirt I'm patchworking and blue tights.
I care about the environment a lot. And I work for one of the biggest waste producing comapnies: Tescos.

 

What is your favourite book?

 

Probably 'A little love song' by Michelle magorian. Or 'Agathering Light', by jennifer Donnelly. I have read both about 10 times each!
