I'm back from my hiatus. Since my last entry to my Pretty In The City audience, life has taken some exciting turns in my career and love life! I tied the knot late last year, and am now Nelvia Arlisa Bullock. But enough about me. Lets get right to it. I'm not trying to stir the pot during this celebratory moment, however, I feel inclined to get something off my chest! According to the dictionary :A fan, sometimes also called aficionado or supporter, is a person with a liking and enthusiasm for something, such as a band, a sports team or entertainer.
Unfortunately, I'm equally from two places Chicago and Oklahoma. I lived in Chicago during the era of Jordan, Pippen, Grant, Kukoc, and even had the pleasure of meeting most of those guys when I was a little girl. I remember hanging out at my Aunt Nelvy's in the South Loop decked out in Bulls gear, and showing my team spirit. Naturally, my level of enthusiasm for the Chicago Bulls is high. I even met the legendary Michael Jordan once, got autographs, took pictures, and he knows my family.
My entire childhood and most of my adult life, I have cheered loudly for the Bulls. The irony is that I married a die-hard Celtics fan, and for the last four years I stood by his side screaming for Rondo, Paul Pierce, and friends. Could it be a Celtics vs. Thunder this year, well let's just watch the chips fall where they may!
Since Thunder landed in OKC, I never found a place for the team with the AMAZING story! Is it a bad thing that I've been gone for eight years, and just never hopped on the Thunder train? I'm happy their doing well, and love the Thunder fans as my parents, sister, and close friends scream Thunder Up each and every game. I would be an awful Chicklahoman not to say Congrats to the Thunder on this major milestone!
Everyone, who knows me can attest to this has always been my story and I'm not changing it now, as the victory of the Thunder reigns. Either way at least I kept it real on what's in my heart!
May the best team, win and take it all! Stay tuned for my next post that will highlight hot beauty products for Summer.
Smooches,
Nelvy
