Nicknames! =)
Kay. What's the deal with us having one million names that we go by? I have no idea but same goes for me. I have Eli and Michael G. giving me the nickname of my life: Sundance! I have this crazy funny girl that was talking about juice at the time while she was talking to me, Elysse, who now calls me: Sunny-D! I have family members call me Sunny and Sunshine! It's frustrating when I don't know who is calling me and where I'm suppose to turn to. Sometimes, I hear the ones that go by action figure/superhero characters, like: Batman, Robin, Dark Night,& Superman. The funny ones that are sort of weird and unnecessary, and have nothing to do with their selves, like: Cherry, Jellybean,&Pizza....It's okay to have those as nicknames but it's pretty much the idea of having nothing to do with you. The good side of having a nickname is because its what you can be known as and have friends see you as someone different. (possible your nickname can always become your alter-ego at a time) I know sometimes myself might say something total off guard then "Sundance" will. Its basically what makes you, you and nobody else. I'm not saying I'm against nicknames, so don't get that in mine, I am just explaining how it makes things confusing and fun all at the same time. For me, myself and I....I love the nickname Sundance, at first I was totally against it now I'm loving it like if it was my birth name. And I'm used to people calling me that and I rather let that continue instead of having a weird name.
If you agree with my statement, thanks. =)
-Sundance!
This is a great post! This really captures what a blog is for--you take something that is on your mind, and you "spell-it-out" through your blog. Love it!
ReplyDeleteAs for nicknames, I like them. In middle school and high school, my friends all called me Smallz. When I got to college, everyone called me blittle. In fact, there were some of my friends in college who only knew me as "blittle" and didn't even know what my first name was!
