Hello, My Earthlings: About Me — T. Nichol 👽

No. I’m not an alien, but I do plan on taking over the world.

Hello, My Humans! 👋🏾

YOU: “Why are you addressing us like you’re from another planet?”

Because I might be an undercover alien — from another planet — who was placed here, to take over the world. 🌎

Or maybe I’m just making sure that we are all on the same page because some of us think we are better than the rest, which is far from the truth, if YOU are a human, yourself.

But now that we have gotten that awkward part out of the way, you still don’t know if I’m human or not, but hey!

Rather, I’m an alien, a human, or an intelligent robot, I deserve to be on this platform just like every other living creature that can read and write.

So, if you are even more confused, now, then great!

Maybe you will focus on my content instead of the shallow parts, like if I have two heads and 4 arms, or if I am The Tin Man’s great-granddaughter.

But I digress.

My name is Tiffany, but I’m known as T. Nichol, on the internet. It’s a combination of the first initial of my name — Tiffany — And my middle name — Nichol (Pronounced as Nicole).

It sounds more mysterious, bold, and serious, compared to just “Tiffany.” And Tiffany is a very common name that isn’t as memorable, as T. Nichol. Plus, Tiffany is who I really am; T. Nichol is an alter ego of myself.

Tiffany is the reserved side of myself.

T. Nichol is the sarcastic, observant, and unapologetically honest side of myself.

Overall, I’m a good balance of these two “women.” Because if I wasn’t, I probably wouldn’t have made it to my 30s.

Because T. Nichol has no filter. 😳

I consider myself a content creator. I mean, I have a traditional job, but one of my goals is to become a full-time content creator, between 3 sources of future income: YOUTube, Writing Books, & Blogging. 📚

Overall, I believe writing, rather, it’s creatively or professionally, is my purpose in life.

By the way, if YOU want to see my creative writing, come to life, then YOU should SUBSCRIBE to Detox My Life with T. Nichol, ONLY on YOUTube.

Do you see what I did there?

Yeah. That’s called self-promoting. We should all be doing this — especially when we all bring value to this planet. Because if I want you to take me seriously, as a writer, then I need to have the confidence to use my writing voice to tell you what I can bring to the table, which I bring advice, laughter, and honesty to all that will give my content a fair chance.

So, check out some of my articles, here, on Medium.

But make sure to read them — Don’t just skim through them like they’re a part of a textbook the night before a midterm. I mean, I can be entertaining, but you must be an actual reader to grasp the entire point of my articles.

But if you are a human that can offend easily, you may not want to follow my content because YOU will be the butt of every joke — in every piece of content.

So, sorry, in advance!

The name, for my YOUTube channel, came from the fact that I tend to hold my tongue, a lot, in my everyday life. So, I created Detox My Life with T. Nichol so that I could purge out a lot of honest thoughts, in a creative way, without being judged by the humans who know me.

I mean, I’m still going to be judged, but at least I can keep my reserved reputation, in my real life, because I can blame the other side of myself if someone doesn’t approve of what I have to say. But I’m too grown to be worried about what others think. 🤔

So, let humans be bothered by your honesty because at the end of the day, the truth can’t be altered, and no one can grow from the lies we tell them.

Last, but certainly not least, I’m a college graduate. 👩🏽‍🎓

Yes! I’m very proud of my accomplishment. My mother fought too hard for my education for me not to have any form of a degree.

The most powerful way to use my degree, is to combine it with my purpose, which will make me a force to be reckoned with!

But it’s so ironic, to have a BA in Communication, because the last thing I want to do is talk to humans, at least not in the verbal sense. Any form of writing will always be my go-to for communication. So, before YOU go, please leave me a comment, below.

Oh! That rhymed.

Maybe I was a rapper, in my former life.

Or maybe I’m just oozing with inspiration.

Or maybe I’m just a very corny, young woman who just lucked up and made a couple of words sound cool, together.

Yeah. It’s definitely the latter. But wouldn’t it be cool to have been a rapper, in my former life? That would mean I would have been a rap-star before some of the greats, like Tupac and Biggie.

Yeah. We will just go with that.

But before this article becomes a New York Times best-selling novel — for the length, alone — I need to conclude this introduction, to YOU.

But wait!

Have I actually shared anything with you? Or am I just going off on a tangent about everything else, known to man?

Okay. I’m sorry. Let me add a few tidbits about myself so that you don’t feel like you wasted 5 minutes of your day in the mist of chaos and confusion.

Hmmm. . .What do I want you to know about me?

Let’s see. . .

1. I’m from The Longhorn State. I love Texas, but wish I lived in a bigger city, or at least a city that had more creative or artistic things to do. I have always wanted to go to a poetry lounge — or even a jazz club.
2. I changed my major 7 times, before I decided to study Communication. But if I could do it, over again, I would have earned a degree in Computer Science. The tech industry is booming with innovative jobs, and I am pretty tech-savvy. I mean, I could have been a tech nerd. But hey! It’s never too late to earn another degree!
3. My favorite color is yellow, but you wouldn’t guess it because I never wear it, and most of the time, I am wearing neutrals — like black and grey — which is actually very odd, because growing up, my mother called me Punky Brewster because I liked wearing like 6 colors at the same time.
4. My celebrity crush is LaKeith Stanfield. You know him — He plays on the FX series, Atlanta, as Darius; He played in the Netflix Original film, The Harder They Fall, as Cherokee Bill; He played, as Andre Hayworth, in Jordan Peele’s film, Get Out. And that’s just to name a few. But it’s ironic, because majority of the celebrities that I think are very attractive, have this nerdy, artistic, woke vibe about them, such as Danny Glover (Community & Atlanta) and Jermaine Fowler (Coming 2 America & Superior Donuts).
5. My favorite food, before college, was homemade tacos. But since I have broaden my horizons, I am a 30-something who loves sushi — specifically, Salmon Sashimi. Yum! If I could afford it, I would eat sushi, every single day because it makes me so happy. Oh! And it’s delicious, too. Okay. I have a problem. My name is Tiffany, and I am a foodie. No. Seriously. Is there actually a support group for my issue? Because I will buy sushi before I pay a significant bill. You think I’m playing, but I’m not lying. Help me. Please.
6. I won over 20 trophies, throughout my childhood, as a pageant contestant. I mean, I can’t lie. I was a cutie — at age 5. But unfortunately, once I became a teenager, I went through a very awkward stage, in my life. Ironically, I think I am still going through an awkward stage in my life, as I share this with you. I mean, do some of us go through our glow up, later, in life? I’m just asking for a friend — or my future self.

Okay. I think this introduction is disrespectfully long, now. I think I need to just move on, and get to the end of this first chapter in this book.

But I hope we see — or I should say, read — more of each other, throughout Medium. Because I don’t want us to be strangers, but a close-knit family of supporters.

If YOU write, I love to read! 📖

If I write, I hope YOU love to read!

But I want you to indulge in my articles because you understand and enjoy the value of my content, not because you feel obligated, in any way.

But thank you, for reading my entire introduction! 😊

I mean, I could fully introduce myself, and seriously tell you all that you need to know about me, but I don’t think anyone wants to know the very beginning of my story, you know, the part when I came out of the womb.

So, as always. . .

Until Next Time, My Humans.

Oh! I almost forgot!

If you want to follow me, on my socials, then visit the ABOUT ME section, ONLY on YOUTube. 😊

Oh!

Am I using a clever tactic to get you to check out my channel?

Uh…

I plead the fifth. 🤐

P.S. This is my celebrity crush — if YOU still don’t know him. . .

Also, If YOU want to learn more about me, and how I think, then I suggest YOU start reading my content, here, on Medium.
