About me - Awnya Nirvelli

I enjoy writing any and all styles. I have my own personal opinions, and most of the time, I am going against the crowd with them.

My personal blogs have no real merit, they are just a bit of news about me, or funny stories that I like to share.

Entertainment > Music Genres, Trends & Scenes How the power ballad destroyed metal music in the late '80s: 4 of 47
It is amazing to look back to the music that so many of us grew up listening to. Heavy metal has taken the back seat in the rock music industry. No longer do we hear the hard core riffs of AC DC, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and Motley Crue. The general public no longer wants to hear songs about prostitutes, drugs, and parties;... More..

How to make joint custody workOver the years, joint custody has become increasingly more popular with divorced parents. It is a very hard transition for the children.

Relationships & Family > Married Life Should husbands or wives control the family budget?: 17 of 45

I personally tend to be a control freak, and I do not like the way my hubby works the finances. My husband wants to make sure that every... More..
Parenting & Pregnancy > Parenthood Fathers: Tips for talking to your kids about drugs: 6 of 14
No parent wants to see anyone, especially their own child, addicted to drugs. The harsh reality is that more and more kids are trying drugs, and after repeated use, they become hooked.

The death penalty is such a controversial topic. Many people see it as a terrible injustice, while others see it as fair and just. I believe a little of both, which may confuse everyone. Let me explain: I believe that if the crime was bad enough for the death penalty to be rendered, then it is fair and just. The problem I hav... More..
Society & Lifestyle > Racism Racism against white people: 22 of 38
I am sorry to say (to all of you who do not believe that there is racism toward white people) that it in fact does exist. A man and woman with 8 children, can illegally enter this country. Their medical expenses are all covered by Medicaid, they receive $2000 per month for food, they get $1500 per month in TANF (temporary ass... More..

My husband and I moved into our house a little over 2 years ago. The first spring we were here, I planted a few packets of morning glory seeds in the flowerbed next to the front porch.
