Oh na na, Whats My Name?

-
 I REALLY HATE MY NAME. dyuk!

Seriously, I really don't like my name that much.

Why?

Tinatanong pa ba yan? For me kasi my name is so common. Madami akong kapangalan.

Gusto ko kasi wala akong kapangalan eh. Gusto ko nagiisa lang ang name ko. Like for example, when I had my Masters may ka name ako na Alex (girl). So kapag tinatawag ang Alex napapatayo kaming dalawa kasi di  namin alam kung ako ba o yung girl ang tinatawag. Nakakainis diba.. pero mas gusto ko na siya ang tawagin haha.. Ayaw ko kasi ang oral recitation ehh.. Lol.

If given a chance at kapag mayaman na ako, I might change my name into something different. Yung hindi common maybe starts with letter "Z" like Zandro, Zabel, Zeebeedee, Zuma (di pala common ha!?) or maybe starts with "X" like Xavier (marami nga lang kapareho) o di naman kaya a name that starts with Ñ. Astig diba?

Pero honestly gusto ko talaga na name nag start sa letter "J". Ewan ko kung bakit pero parang nice ang mga name na nag start sa "J".

Like Joshua, John, James, Jasper, Jeremiah, Jireh. Mga pinsan ko name nila starts with letter "J". Ang saya lang. Nakakainggit. Pag naguluhan yung Mommy nila at nakalimutan kung sino panganay sa kanila tatawagin na lang silang J1, J2, J3 and J4.

Parang yung magkakapatid lang na may Flor ang name. Naguluhan yung daddy nila kung sino ba ang panganay kung si Flor de Lisa, Flor de Luna, o si Flor de Leah ba. Kaya sa kalituhan binigyan na lang niya ito ng code na 1st Flor, 2nd Flor and 3rd Flor. Galing diba?

Mabalik tayo sa name ko...

Akala ko panget ang name ko.

MALI PALA AKO...

Tinanong ko si Mama kung bakit Alexander ang name na binigay nila sa akin.

Here's some facts about my name:
  • Ang nagbigay ng name ko ay ang Lolo ko -- Astig! Nangingialam (dyuk lang! I love you Lolo)
  • Pinangalan pala talaga ako sa magiting na manlulupig at mananakop na si Alexander The Great -- Double Astig!! Ikaw na Lolo!
  • Gusto daw ni Lolo na maging magiting ako gaya ni Alexander The Great
  • Naging great din naman ako.. The Great Protector. The Great Pretender. The Great sa kakulitan. The Great sa kagwapuhan (wag basagan ng trip!)
Akala ko dati pinaka common na ang name na Alexander sa balat ng lupa, yun pala HINDI!

Ayun sa http://www.namestatistics.com/ ang ALEXANDER  na name ay pang #141 most common male first name and 0.132% of males in the US are named ALEXANDER. Around 161700 US Males are named ALEXANDER!

Hindi na rin masama. At least hindi #1 pinaka common ang name ko...

And ang first letter ng name ko starts with letter "A". San kapa pinaka una sa letters ng Alphabeth. Ehh di ako na ang pinaka una.
And to add..

Marami din ang may name na Alex or Alexander ang super sikat and some of them changed the shape of universe with their contributions..
  • Alexander the Great - A towering figure in the ancient history, came close to cinquering the entire civilized world of his day. The son of King Phillip II of Macedon. Alexander was educated by the Philosopher Aristotle and first led troops at age 18.
  • Alexander Graham Bell - the man who invented the Telephone.
  • Alexander Fleming - is famous for discovering the usefulness of penicillin as an antibacterial agent.
  • Alexander Calder - abstract painter and scupltor famous for working in wire and originating the dangling, moving artworks know as mobiles.
And ang next sa mga nasa itaas ay ako na... ALEXANDER CATIERO.. hehehe (Hari ng yabang lang!)

A certain survey says that Alexander is such a nice name. Ako na ang proud sa name ko..









So starting today, I will love my name with all my heart and be proud of it. PWAMIZZ....

    Ayan.. LOVE your name na. Baka magalit sayo si Lolo mo. Hehe.. Ang ganda kaya ng name na Alexander. Kung ako, merong chance na baguhin ang name ko.. it would be either ALEXA. ALEXANDRA or AURA.. Those are regal names.. parang of royalty kasi.

    Like Queen Alexandra.. Princess Aura... Duchess Alexa.. Oh, kitam.

    i hear what your saying...but although your name is common, it's not even close to my name. based on the US statistics, my name has always been in the top 10, if not the top 5 since they started collecting data. and btw, during my senior yr in high school, out of 26 students in my section alone, there are 8 michaels. need i say more...

2012 is about to end... I would like to say "thank you" for being part of my 2012. You make it memorable for me.  As we are about to end this year, may God bless each and everyone of you with good health, peace of mind and a better and bright future.  This year, Ive gained a lot of things. I gained new friends and lost some. gained trust and respect from people that I never expected and lost trust and relationship to people who I cared friends. I never regret every decisions I made in 2012 as it made me a better person and will always be. I've win a lot of battles and lose some... but life must go on... Cheers to 2013! And may the abundance of our Mighty Lord be upon you.

Seen a ghost? Well, try to check the picture above. Ang larawan na ito ay kuha po sa loob ng kwarto namin ngayong umaga pagkagising. Try to look closely at door in the living room. Ilapit mo mukha mo sa monitor mo tapos idilat ang mga mata mo... see a man standing at the door staring in our room holding something? That's what I'm talking about... Bisita namin yan...That is the reason why I have been experiencing something different in this apartment. Afraid? Well, fear not! they don't do any harm. Lol. Maagang pananakot lang? Ganyan?
