REASONS FOR MY NAMES
People are often curious about my name.i think it's neccesary for me to explain the reasons.
Firstly,I love PRISON BREAK and I like Michael Scofield ,hoping myself to be such a wise person just like him.
Secondly,I ever kept a male dog ,who I called Michael as I didn’t know much about English then ,just knowing that Michael was a boy’s name.however,he was missing several months later.maybe because I was very young at that time and he has been the first pat I had ever kept.in addtion ,i really really miss him a lot even till today.so I keep Michael just to memorialise him.
Thirdly,I love swimming myself very much.meanwhile,the cute boy Michael Phelps has just won 8 gold metals on Beijing Olimpic games.i really like and admire him.hoping to be good at swimming like him and enjoy myself in the water more,I call myself Michael.
Fourthly,I myself is a little naughty which is suppose to be some characters that boys may have.as far as I am concerned,it makes no difference to be called a boy’s name or a girl’s name as long as you like it.
In a nutshall,I have many outstanding people,who are wise ,brave ,possitive ,optimistic, and how I want myself just to be .i’ve just figured out some of them.
One my part ,I really don’t want to change the name,cause it has come into my life and has been part of my life already.i have been called this name for two years or so but all on the internet.,
After coming into singapore,I ‘ve come across many circumstances which were really embarrassing.all my teachers have asked the reasons why I call myself such a strage name or a common boy’s name.furthermore,I have come to acquintent some of the locals .,when I intronduce myself as the name MICHAEL,they would just look at me in confusion.I am embarrassed to explain the reasons that I ‘ve repeated thousands of times.
Once I came across a local in singapore on SKRPE.as the conversation moving on ,we mentioned my name.after I spoke out my english name,he just kept in silence,he didn't ask the reasons this time .in stead,he seems cold to me and we didn’t talk to each other from then on .i am very confused about the result I have got from the local.i wonder if they had regarded me as a gay,or just a person who is strage or uneasy-going?
Anyway ,this name has caused so much trouble for me which often take me to an embarrassment.
So at last ,I change my name to Michelle temporarily,as I am not quite value my english name,whatever can be ok for me.people can call me whatever they like.
Anyway,i will always be MICHAEL in my heart,my michael.i will always be.

Name is just a symbol in our life, in fact being called whatever is not important.But indeeed we live in a would of people,and of course have to consider what others think about us.I always think the name is OK for you, but perhaps foreign people always relate names to the characters of the owner.We are abroad,so we should adapt to their culture and satisfy their habits.Just don't feel sad about the changing of your name.If you do want you name, keep it in heart, so that no one can take it from you.
