The 1121 is the date we got married: November 21, 2009 =)


November 21, 2009 was the day I left Germany and came back to the USA to be with my hubby!

Here's the breakdown of my screenname (I've been using it since 2000):
Bajan - My parents are from Barbados (and that's what you call a person from Barbados)
Princess - That's what I am [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
82 - The year I was born

I've always wanted to know what a person from Barbados was called. Yay for fun fact of the day Smile

My username is simple, not creative. M is for the initial of my first name, verde is the first 5 letters of my last name and 3 is my favorite number Smile

My screen name is actually how I sign my artwork. It's the first two letters of my first and last name combined.

I like it, soror! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] I came up with my username because my middle name is Leigh and I have curly/coily hair.

We have the same birthday! Based on your age, we were apparently born in the same year as well! Cool! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I selected my name because my name is Tiffany and my middle initial is D. There you have it tiffyd. It's the first time I changed my screen name from my normal screen name. It isn't very original, but it's new!

My screenname came from when I first BC'd and started noticing just how curly my hair really is. Just curls, curls, curls everywhere, just curls! I loved it! Hence the name, CurlsGalore!

Hey Soror!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


Right back atcha, soror!!

BTW, I laughed when I read your post about your son's birthday cake, and your DH not knowing how much it cost...Sounds familiar to my purchases for my 3 daughters...They are 3yrs, 20mths, and 2mos and my hubby thinks I've lost my mind with all of my Princess and the Frog purchases!!! Now I have to keep it on the DL...LOL

Post by Curly Film Chick on 5th February 2010, 4:54 pm

I guess mine relates to my identities and interests that I explore on my blog (which is where I got the name)

Curly - being a minority
Film - my interests, career choice, and major
Chick - my female identity

So in a sense, I am exploring what it means to be a woman of color, through a film lense.

I find it sums me up very well [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Mine is Bosandi which is the name my husband started calling while we were dating. He would use my name in the banana fanna song.

My name is Brandi so it was like Brandi, brandi, bobandi, banana fana, bosandi...

Silly but cute.
