Hey, name's Nicole and I hail from the small town of Charlestown in the smaller state of Rhode Island. Recently graduated high school to find myself stuck at a dead-end university that ultimately wasn't going to help me achieve my ultimate dream of becoming a famous manga-ka...so I up and left after the end of my first semester. You can now see me dragging my ass around the University of Rhode Island campus trying to rack up some cheap General Ed credits in order to ensure my acceptance into the Rhode Island School of Design next time around. When I'm not at school I continue my traditional ass-dragging at the local Waldenbooks where I work in order to pay for the outrageous costs of being a commuter now adays. And in the gracious amount of free time I have I am either drawing manga, reading manga, or watching manga transformed into anime, with the occasional break to play an eight-hour marathon of D&D. Call me a dork and see if I care... In the future I would like to continue to do all of these things...except in Japan, perhaps living with my aunt in all my famous manga-ka glory.
