Hello, Abu Mickey.

I used to own a moniker called Akinmail. I met and interacted with some wonderful peeps then. I keep wondering whatever happened to Nomski0. Last I heard she was at med school in uniben.

I know you know her and I suspect you know her real name. Can you help me I want to contact her, I had a boy crush on her then.

Even if I can just get her real names, I could try contacting her on Facebook.
