Switched the blog up... and it took me forever but I am a STUBBORN child by all means... I was determined to install the template myself and though it took me forever I was not going to give up. Just wasn't happening. LOL... im satisfied for now... I think its amazing for my first time... and its simple... I like simple.. =)
My post today though is about names... sounds weird but play along......
My Name
When I was younger I HAAATTTEEEEDDDD my name.... so much to the point where I used my cousins name in first grade on all my assignments until the teacher realized that none of my assignments were being handed in and for some reason there were assignments with the name Christina and no one had that name in my class... I asked all the time where the name "Tanay" came from... why did I get a "made up" name?? who was I named after?? Why wasn't my name "normal". I had identity issues clearly... But now... my name IS pretty much my identity. I wouldn't change my first or middle name for ANYTHING (last name I can get rid of... *hint hint babe!*). Who would I be if I wasn't Tanay Michele? I use my first and middle name everywhere... facebook/instagram/the twitter account that I never use but plan to start using... I love my name... I love who I am... I couldn't imagine it any other way.
Blog Name
I switched my blog (&& url) from "&& she can conquer the world..." to "this girl & the world." simply because... I wasn't happy with the name anymore. I honestly feel like I'm not by any means "conquering" anything or you guys would have MUCH more interesting posts to read... but I do feel like the world and my surroundings have a large impact on how I feel from a day to day basis and thus the type of blogs that develop from that. I am simply living in the world.. and not overcoming it. And I'm fine with that for now... one day I'll take the world by storm and then you'll be watching it on tv and I wont have to change the blog name again ;)
I totally feel you on the name dilemma! No one has ever had my name, spelled it corrrectly, said it correctly or anything else, lol. But just like you, I wouldn't change it for the world. It is so unique that I also use it everywhere too! Blog, Twitter, etc.. Strange name soul sisters!
