D: panic face! what's my name?

Dear readerssssssss,
 I don't know if I will ever blog the same way again. I just updated to the "new blogger interface". I feel so mod, fresh, dapper, stylish, and most definitely panicked. I can't handle change! I mean, I've accepted Facebook's low self esteem and constant need for a makeover every 12 minutes. Blogspot just threw this one on me, no foreshadowing at all. I thought we had agreed to be honest and open with one another, but apparently I was wrong. Blogspot's makeover looks nice... But it's just not the Blogspot I thought I knew. I miss the old simple and plain Blogspot. Oh well, our love can work through anything since this new commitment I have to blog every week. So far successful. (: <3

In other news, I have also been exercising regularly and eating better. I don't remember if I made a commitment to pay more attention to the news- but that happened! Yay. I honestly don't even remember my other new year's resolutions haha, so much for that! Oh yeah, spend less money- check. Still working on the other a little bit, but I will survive!

So other things on my mind... Names. I have a new photography business that I had decided on a name for, and I'm now having second thoughts. I even had some good suggestions, but nothing seems to fit quite right. And then I got to thinking, why is that? Have you ever thought about if you had a different name? I've heard plenty of people wish that they went by their middle name rather than their first, and I've also thought about that also. I was just redundant by saying also twice, it's like I repeated myself. And I did it again a second time. I'm having too much fun now. Anywayyyyyyy. There's some Shakespearian thing that's all "What's a rose but smells as sweet by any other name" (yes I KNOW that's not exactly how it goes, but I'm just using it as an example so calm down bookworm). And I gotta say, Shakespeare has a point. What if my name was Sarah? "But you don't look like a Sarah, you look like a Juliet" yeah who decides that huh?? How is it that people look like their names? They surely look quite different when they were born, and most mothers to be decide on a name before seeing their child. But somehow we "look" like our names. I think if I was born a Sarah people would be just as quick to say I didn't look like a Juliet. I blame the concept of familiarity. Names also associate thoughts so quickly, especially to those who are judgmental. When someone hears your name they immediately visual your hair, eyes, nose, etc. but also think "I like them, I don't like them, I don't know them, I'm very close to them, they act too 'this' or 'that', and their clothes are rather 'this' or 'that' and etc." Our names have so many connotations it's ridiculous, but even then changing our name wouldn't change who we are or what people think at all. Unless of course your name is Zippthorne- with two P's!
