Hello there, first of all I can't believe that i'm finally able to write this. it's just i've always wanted to do this....i'm just going to start by telling something about me. So, here it goes Hi (Awkward) I'm Adina with an 'I' not double 'E', it's so frustrating as well as annoying at the same time. i literally have to tell people to correct to my spelling name. the most frustrating was the time during my school you see i've studied in a CBSE. in a gulf country, Yes i'm an NRI but india has been my first love always. although i've studied in an indian embassy school we had students all over india and we had only girls YES no boys, but i'm glad i got to make soo many friends and learn soo much about different cultures of india, the funny thing is i got a hang of different accents used by people all over india, wheather it is Hydrabadi accent, mumbai accent or south indian accent. i got to know soo much about my people. although the worst part is many people waren't familier with my name, different people had different way of pronounciating my name Some called me 'Adheena' with an 'H' as well as with a 'Double E' you have no idea how traumatizing it is. although many got the hang of it. but the whole thing starts once again when then new session starts and i have to deal with this once again.

but now i think about it i believe it was quite funny because at the end of the day i remember those people and i miss them because the time i spent with them was a rollercoaster, including my Maths Teacher who called me 'Adaina'. i know most of you would be soo annoyed by listening to stupid story who is just about my name. but it's not just my name, it's my everything. it came to the point i started hating my name, but some how i found my spirit lifted all thanks to my friends they made me realize that it doesn't matter what your name is or how people pronounce it, what matter is how you make your name worth spoken about. and i want all to know that no matter where you are or what your name is make them know who are, make them say your name in a sense of joy. you see 'Name' is something that makes you who you are because imagine if people had no name, would’nt it be strange people calling each other just by ‘hey’, ‘boy’, ‘girl’ it would be a nightmare. Now here i'm a full time college student studying in one of the biggest university in the world and the best part is people actually pronounce my name right but as they say some things never change and so it did, people still spell my name with a ‘Double E’ but that did not stop me from feeling bad about my name instead I laugh it out and enjoy myself as well. So don’t be so hard on yourself even if just a minor thing in your life including your very own name.
