I have been getting a lot of grief from friends and family all over the country about how I haven’t visted in so long or they never see me and what not. I know this and it sucks and I love all of my friends and miss my grandparents and favorite aunt and cousins terribly. Can’t help it guys. I work in several feilds and have multiple jobs and school now so…no social life. 

 Ok so one of my friends decided to ignore that and just unexpectedly showed up in town from another state. I love that she cares that much and I love her dearly as well …BUT…drop bys with me are a big no no. I can’t work with people in my space. I can’t be a good host and take care of my guests and work at the same time at ANY of my jobs. That being said it was still pretty awesome to sit outside and Bar B que and just catch up and talk and have a great breakfast. Now here’s the thing. She showed up and didn’t tell me she was coming, She also didn’t tell me how long she was staying so I was like…wtf? This i his awesome my friends are. She showed up Friday night and we had dinner and talked late into the night outside under the stars. The next morning we had breakfast, her man showed up and whisked her away. She hugged me and gave me a kiss and said ” Don’t worry. I know how busy you are. We came in town for a spa retreat and I came here lats night because I needed my Nikki time. I just miss and love you is all. ” She went on her way with her honey and I went back to work The thing is I DID need that. I mean if she had stayed any longer I would have had serious problems but just that amount of time by surprise was good. I am so thankful she came by. I truly have the greatest friends ever. So blessed…xo

So insane. Been working and training and catching up with friends and family. If I just said that it would sound like a pretty standard albeit busy week. I swear though ..my world this past week has felt like a ride on a bucking bronco ….on acid. Just one of those weeks where even the simplest tasks like going to the health food store to get some organic veggies has had the weirdest arrangement of unusual surprises and odd character coming from all angles.  I have had some of the greatest moments with friends this week. Old friends from childhood and a semi surprise visit. An old friend with a crisis and a need to get away came to me. I tend to be that person with my friends and it’s totally cool, I just wasn’t expecting it and it has been quite a ride to say the least. Last night I was just trying to get my friends mind off of her problems n watch a movie and 1/2 way through it…my tv blew. I have never had a TV blow IN MY LIFE and BOOM…it just went black.  My friends dog had puppies in the night also and I was called to handle that. I’ve never deliver puppies before. Why do these people call me for EVERYTHING? Not to be funny but if a porn model is your “go to” person…..you may need to re-evaluate some things. ha ha. I need caffiene and chocolate…NOW.

hahaha

xoxoxo

have a pic set that has been of my favorite pic sets for a while now. My friend Lisa Boyle shot it at her house a couple years ago. I have put up pics from it ever since then in my blog and freeones and twitter. Hell I even posted part of it on my site as an update. The thing is…I just found the whole pic set and realized that I only posted a fraction of it before. Doh! I just processed the whole thing and the missing pics are going up tomorrow on www.nikkinova.com  Can’t wait to shoot with Lisa again. I love the pics she takes. I will be seeing her in 6 weeks or so to do just that. Can’t WAIT! Anyway….here’s peek o fthe set I am talking about…

Hey everyone! So many questions to answer and so many new things to catch up on. I have been helping a friend on a short film they were producing. I art directed it and played a small role in it (in serious costume so no one would ever recognize me….haha). It was hilarious. Been busy with that and school/training and other work.  I just started writing for yet ANOTHER magazine which is awesome. Very excited about it. That’s 3 magazines now that I am/have writing/written for. The more I become established in that feild however the less I write under the name Nikki Nova , which I am sure you can understand. I write under a psuedonym and I try to keep all parts of my life/world in their proper places so that they each do not interfere with or detract from the other parts, which brings me to the next question that I have been getting from so many of you ever since my blog entry on how I am getting certified in 9 different forms of natural healing and medicine by July. Technically when all is said and done I will be certified on a teacher level, meaning as a teacher in a total of 16 different forms of healing and/or natural medicine.  The first 9 are things I have been working on for a while and will have completed it all by the first half of July. The other 7 will take another 2 years approx. Most people that know me know that I have been involved on some level in that feild for many, MANY years. It’s just something that I have done for my own knowledge and never planned to do anything with necessarily. I still don’t know that I will. I just like knowing that I will have the documented, paper certification showing that I know…and am officially trained in things that I have basically been involved in for a long time. The only people that knew I was doing this,  until recently of course, was my favorite aunt and the people I have been training with. I have a couple more years of being Nikki Nova and therefore wouldn’t be doing anything with it until then anyhow. Even at that point it will depend on how busy I am with the art directing. The writing I can do alongside of either so that is relatively unaffected by whatever choice I make. I like having options however and a guaranteed future. To me it’s just sensible to do so. I don’t have much of a social life due to my plate being so damn full. I have a break in June for a week and again in July after the certification is complete on the first round. That will be nice. I will DEFINITELY be taking some vacations this summer! Can NOT WAIT!!!  Hope you are all having a great week so far. Log in to www.nikkinova.com to see the following things  that you have possibly missed. These are just what has gone up in the past few days!!! Remember folks my site updates several times a day EVERY SINGLE DAY !!!

are you still reading? Log in already and see all of this great stuff!!! www.nikkinova.com !!!!

This is to all my site members. Please read entire message. Just fyi…my computer that comtained the updates has taken a shit on me. I took it to 2 different specialists and it’s just not fixable. I went to my storage unit and located the raw DVD’s containing the pics and videos but I have to process ,edit and prare them all over again. This means that  it will be a few days late. Everything should be back to normal by May 1st. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for the patience and understanding. This also means that you won’t see preview of whats coming for a bit and will just be surprised as it goes up because I will be working on it and getting things up as they are completed. They will all still be up on time but you won”t get to see what’s coming very far in advance like you usually do. You will just have to log in and see what’s going up everyday. That could actually be kind of fun actually especially since 2 of the pic sets were shot by my favorite photographer Lisa Boyle…so they are SUPER FUCKING HOT.  By the way …hope to see you in the next live cam/chat. That’s only a few days away. Check my calendar on www.nikkinova.com in the members area for date and time. xoxoxox

ok so you all know me as “Nikki Nova” and we all know what that line of work is…haha.  I am still under contract with an online media company for a couple more years for my website and other online work as “Nikki Nova”. All good. I’m grateful for it because had it not been for my work as Nikki Nova all of these years I would not have had many of the opportunities n experiences I have had , places I have traveled to, friends I have made ,lessons I have learned etc. and so on.  In addition to my work as Nikki Nova , many of you also know that I am a writer and have written for several different magazines as well. I also recently started art directing , mainly for fashion and commercial lifestyle shoots.

 Well in addition to all of that I have also been undergoing further education. I have always studied various forms of natural medicine and healing since I was a young teenager just for my own knowledge and pleasure. It’s just that I have also recently been taking steps to get certified (officially) on paper in MANY different aspects of that very thing (healing). I am  now and have been going to various schools and classes for many different things in that feild. I study for a few months in one place and a few in another with other people, all depending on which thing I am studying at the time. Only 2 people on the planet have intimate knowledge of that part of my life. Well I am proud to say that as of July 9th I will be officially certified as a teacher in 9 different healing feilds. I am so excited. I am not stopping there however. I will be continuing my education and getting certified in 7 others over the following 2 years. It’s just very exciting to have the first batch of certifications so close within my grasp after all of my hard work. I am super excited. All of my hard work is seriously paying off. Finallly. Yay!!!! I have sacrified having any kind of a social life by undertaking all that I have. I have invested an enourmous amount of time and money. I have been able however to help my own health in ways my “western medical ” Dr’s have not been able to for years now. I stuck to my guns and did what I knew/know was/is right for me and it has already paid off bigtime.  I am so so excited and proud of myself. I am happier everyday when I wake up because of all of this and I am even more excited about my future. As of July I will have my first batch of certifications as a teacher in 9 different areas of natural healing. So excited and so proud!

Ok so earlier I posted a simply link to a youtube video that’s going around with Ted Nugent on the 2nd amendment. Yes Ted Nugent can be a bit of a nutbag. I do however 100% agree with him regarding guns and the right to bear arms. Here is a link to the video I posted http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZCxArSFRcw 

 I got some messages from a few ppl on twitter when I posted it who disagreed with me strongly. That’s ok. That’s your opinion and you have a right to it just as I have a right to mine.  Here’s the thing: I have said this all before and I will say it all again many times over before I die, I’m sure. Drugs are illegal and we are still able to get them from drug dealers if we want to. If guns were illegal there would still be ways to obtain them illegally as well BUT the people that would own them would be criminals. The simple act of owning one would make the owner a criminal for starters. Secondly the people that we would want to be able to protect ourselves from , in our own homes would have them, which would make us much bigger targets and in much greater danger. Where does that leave the law abiding citizens? Now think about this, I am a female who lives alone. Many of my friends, family and coworkers are also females who live alone. Big dogs and alarms are only so helpful. Dogs can be shot and poisoned. Alarms can often fail and even when they do work fine, there are response times and those response times can often be too late and in the end…fatal. I can be trained and take all of the self defense courses out there but a man who is also trained is always going to be stronger than me. It’s genetics/science. the only way for me to truly be as safe as possible is to be armed. I have never been arrested. I do not do drugs. I don’t even drink. I am an uber healthy, organic, health food eating vegan who works out, does yoga, has a garden, has pets that were all rescued or adopted, tries to spread positivity, meditates and lives as peaceully as possible on all levels. I’m not a saint. I have experimented with my fair share of  things in my youth. My point however is that I am a peaceful, law abiding citizen. My avid support of the 2nd amendment and the fact that I own guns does not make me anymore of a danger to society. It simply makes me a safer, more protected member of society and less likely to become a victim of those that ARE a threat. This is a subject I have always been passionate about and I always will be passionate about it. I have been a gun owner for nearly 14 years now and I will be until the day I die. To have that right taken away is something I can not even comprehend and I hope I never have to.

So sad. Another entertainment pop icon/legend has left us. Dick Clark, the man who never seemed to age , was there in Times Square every New Years Eve when the ball dropped and helped many a Rock n Roll bands crossover into suburbia on American Band Stand via your tv sets……has ended his journey with us. Such a total bummer. New Years will never be the same. You will be missed…xo  :(

Do you ever have those days where for absolutely no reason it just comes out perfect? One of those magical days where from the moment you open your eyes everything just goes great? Not many of us do. I had one on Tuesday. I slept great, even had awesome dreams, got up, met a friend for breakfast and to our surprise our meal was paid for by a total stranger just doing a kind deed. The person never even revealed thmeselves. Just a random “pay it forward” act of kindness. I was in the best mood from the time I woke up. Everyone I encountered was also in a great mood so the energy was just awesome all day. There was just something in the air. I was up super early and was full of energy. I went and ran all my errands by 1 pm (and there were a LOT) and had the rest of the day free. I went and registered for an all day meditation workshop for next week. Can’t wait. When I returned home the mail had arrived and a check that I was  not expecting yet had come EARLY. Ok seriously? It was just a great fuckin’ day. They’re so rare that I’m still kind of on a high from it and it’s now the next morning. Bring it on Wednesday!

Yesterday I noticed a friend was bitching about getting lost on the way to the Lakers game in LA and being frazzled because she got there so late and had to pay $20 for parking. She went on to complain about spilling wine on her pizza and how unlucky her Friday the 13th was for her due ot these things. What do you think of this? I think it’s something we are all guilty of from time to time. Complaining about silly little things as if they were much bigger of a deal then they really are. Sometimes we all need a reminder and an adjustment on our perspective of things. To me I think she should be happy because she was able to go to a Laker game with friends and have a good time. Be grateful you have $20 to pay for parking and a vehicle to park. Just saying. I’m not bagging on her because she is my friend and again, it’s something we are all guilty of on occasion (some moreso than others).  I just think it’s important to be grateful for all that we DO have and appreciate everyday that we wake up alive. Everyday is a new chance at life. It’s up to us how we live it and with what attitude. On that note I hope your day in fantastic! Big love to you…from me xoxoxoxox.
