    I was born and raised in Texas - Southern
    I live in Upstate NY- Yankee

    SouthernYankee was already taken so I had to add 716, which is my area code.

    You can take the girl out of the south, but you can't take the south out of the girl :flowerforyou:

    I guess I would say I lack Christmas spirit. I see the holiday as a big pain in the butt. I live near a mall so traffic in December is a nightmare. I am pressured to spend money that I don't have. I am constantly around fattening foods. I don't know what to get people because everyone already has whatever they want. I just wish it was simpler and just meant for young children.

    Well...

    Back in April of 1984, my mom gave birth to a little baby girl. She named me Cory (after Corrie Ten Boom, but the boy spelling, I assume because I was the youngest of three girls and my dad wanted a boy?) Ida (after my maternal grandmother).

    Thus, the birth of CoryIda - literally.

    Terribly exciting, I know.

    Rouge is my favorite character too. Mine is pretty obvious--I was a Journalism major in college and worked at my school's newspaper.

    Mine is taken from the Outlander book series by Diana Gabaldon. I am huge fan of the series and it is the motto taken from the family crest of the main character , Jamie Fraser. Je suis prest means "I am ready". So it has a double meaning to me, one as a fan of the book series and two because I am ready for a new healthier me!

    Mine is in memory and honor of my late father. When growing up his friends called him Laddy - I added to it as I didn't feel I measured up to him therefore I couldn't call my self Laddy. Laddyboy was the next best thing I could think of.

    simple enough. I usually use trisherbie, my gamertag/ID/nickname, but it was taken. :(

    fatgirlzrule2....cuz it's true! For some reason when I signed up on MFP I used this name, which I seldom use.... I usually am themiserychick, which was from an episode of Daria, my cousin told me I was themiserychick, and the name has stuck for years.

    I chose my name because I do A LOT of crocheting as well as yarn crafts, cross stitch and even scrapbooking. I don't think I have found a craft I didn't like. 39, well I turn 40 this year so this will forever have me 39 and holding.

    tmch4006 - This was my login at a job I had back in 1998. "tmc" stood for the company name, "h" is the first letter of my last name, 4006 is a sequence number because of all the employees who's last name began with an "h".

    I've used it ever since as an easy and non-descript id.

    Mine is the last half of a gamer tag I've been using for holy crap almost 15 years. My full gamer name was Zazure Amay'rial. Now I use some form of Zazure or Amayrial as log on's.

    Yeah mine isn't anything interesting, but when me and my sisters were little and just to pretend we all picked fake names. I always chose the name Zeikiya even though my name is Marshe'. And i have no idea why lol but 989 is my favorite number.

  • Symphony6
    Symphony6 Posts: 116 Member
    Symphony is not my normal nickname. Changing it symbolized the change I wish to see in myself on this site.

    I came up with Symphony because it is the name I wanted to give my daughter when she was born, but my ex wouldn't go for it, so I ended up naming her Ariah, which is an opera :)

    The 6 is just an alliteration :)

    My profile name is sort of self explanatory. My name is Susan/Susie/Sue and I am a stay at home artist. I have always loved to draw, paint, sew, crochet and love to surf the web for all kinds of artsy stuff. So there you go.
