12:20 pm - What's My Name?
So, yesterday, I found out that I don't know what my own name is. Seriously. My name is spelled Breanne. On my official school documents, they like to spell it Breanna. I've gone to this school for thirteen years and they still haven't figured out how to spell my name. When my mom named me she wanted my name to be Bryn ("ba-wren"), but the only way she knew how to spell it was with an 'h' and she didn't like the 'h'.
It was finally decided that my name would be Breanne ("Bre-ann", "Bri-ann", "Bri-anne"). It's pronounced exactly like it's spelled, but people like to throw that extra "a" in it to make it Breanna. Before I went to school, I was mostly called "Bryn". When I finally went to school, they must have called me Breanne and since I was a very shy kid I probably didn't correct them.
Now that we've covered my first name. Wait until you hear the story of my middle name. In 8th grade, I was told I spelled my middle name wrong. Don't tell me how this kid knew what was on my birth certificate, but evidentially he did and I had been in denial for fourteen years. My middle name is Lin (pronounced like the much more common spelling of "Lynn"). It's spelled Lin because I'm named after my dad's middle name, which is also spelled that way. Don't ask me why they didn't go with the more common spelling.
Let's not even go into my last name. It starts with a "Z". Does that just say it all?
