First thing ya'lls should know is that I think I'm gangsta even though I'm not. Nah dawg.

About Tikaniu -Webmistress:

(August 14, 2009) Hey the name's Tika, don't wear it out. Or do wear it out, cause I would love to talk to you! So I'm a highschool student living in the USA, growing up, making friends, trying to find my place in the world. I love God and I spend most of my days learning how to live life and wishing I could live it for Jesus, like a Jesus Freak! I hope that one day I can attain that title. I absolutely love music and maybe one day I can use it to reach out to people. I play flute, piano/keyboard, sing, and do a little guitar in my church band and with my friends. My friends are SOOOO cool (not really). Mostly they're just weird but that's okay, because I'm weird too, and weird is the best! Haha I'm just messing around, I really love and (under)appreciate my friends. I take so many things for granted, which I realized on my recent trip to Asia this summer. I'd like to think of myself as a deep person, but I'm not really, since I always find myself tied up in the trivial and shallow things of this world. I have low self esteem, so I'm always concerned about how I look or how I act in front of others. But don't worry, I'm not depressed about it.. if that makes sense haha. I'm still a teen and I'm just trying to live my life to the fullest. I wish I could stop caring about that though. I'm not exactly the most gifted person when it comes to talents.. I'm not the best at anything. I often find myself being humbled due to my competitive nature. But Mr. T. D. Jakes says "God doesn't want you to be the best, He just wants you to give your best." And that's what I want to do. Be the best that I can be because in the end, it's the results that I'm looking for and not the means. This 'about me' is starting to get a little too serious so um... CHEESECAKE AND YIPPING DOGS PLUS HAPPINESS EQUAL JOY! and that phrase right there pretty much sums up the conversations I have with my friends everyday. I hope that doesn't scare you.

My other little joys in life include writing, drawing, reading, graphic-design/web-design (OF COURSE! :D), running, hanging out with my homies, watching soap operas (just kidding about that last one. But not really.), cross-stitching, and probably some other stuff that I can't think of right now and will remember later tonight because it's summer and I'm that bored and have nothing else to think about! Whoo. Run-on sentence. Whoo! I love writing, and I often write short stories and novels in my free time. Except I never finish them because I always get writer's block halfway through. And I'm too scared to post them online because I'm afraid someone will steal them, but you know what? My site isn't that popular nor are my stories that good SO I don't know why I feel that way! That's just how I roll I guess. Always worrying. Reading is tight, even when I have to do it for homework over summer break.. I usually end up liking the book anyway! I like thrillers and books that make you think.. you know, the ones they make you take apart in english class? Is it bad to say I read a lot of Stephen King? haha. I also love reading the Bible. I try to read everyday and I'm always finding new things that really help me as I struggle through my teenage years. Graphic design is awesome!! But I'll talk more about that later in the 'About the Site' section which is right below this little rant. Running is fun, I love being in shape but I'm not on the track team at my school because I'm too lazy to make the commitment to all those intense practices and meets. My life is already stressful enough as it is. I enjoy running around the neighborhood with my dad or my sister, doing at most 4 miles at a 9min-mile pace.. and that rarely happens haha.

I think I better stop. There's another hobby that I've acquired recently. Ranting. Oops. But you know ya'll still love me! I'm gangsta (not)!! =D

About the Site:

(August 14, 2009) Jezrehiah.com was officially opened sometime mid July 2006... let's just establish the day as July 16, 2006 so we can have a birthday date! At the time I think I was just trying to make a kewl graphics site for all my neopetz friends, cause I just thought all those userlookups and guild layouts were SOOO AWESOME! All those big fancy anime graphic sites were beast. That's what I wanted to be like. So I learned myself some web HTML and CSS and experimented on Adobe Photoshop elements. Most of my visitors were my offline friends until I discovered the wonder of affiliates! Soon I had a nice little flow of people coming around... like maybe 10 people I believe? Pretty much what I have now, give or take a few. THEN I bought Adobe Photoshop CS2 and my graphics skillz improved dramatically!! I also discovered the wonders of simple PHP, allowing me to expand my site without much hassle. I added tutorials and comics, joined rotations and directories.. you know, the works of an average website owner. Then last year I took Graphics 1 at my school and I LOVED it! Next year I'm taking Graphics 2 and I can't wait to chill with my homies!

Jezrehiah means God shines forth and I hope that my site will someday be an inspiration and help to everyone.
