My English name has a very interesting origin. The day I was born, a humongous supertyphoon called Tim had just killed 19 people in Taiwan and annihilated the Fujian province in China. That is why my English name is Timothy. Why my parents named me after a natural disaster I don’t know, but maybe they were wishing for me to become very powerful (and destructive?). I guess the typhoon and I do have some similarities… one is probably the amount of trouble I cause. Another is probably that I am not easily discouraged and I CAN’T BE DESTROYED mawhaha.
I have many, many nicknames. One is Doimy, which I have no idea how I got it. Another one is Pineapple, because of my hair… it used to be shooting off everywhere. Another one is X-Pert, because I am the X-Pert of the world duh. I like to refer to myself as X-Pert because it sounds cooler than most of my other nicknames. Another one I use to name most of my accounts as is Wayshow, which was bestowed to me by my very loving cousins (no sarcasm…). And lastly, Albert, my very un-annoying friend, calls me Timoky… yes, it’s very (un)annoying… he wrote “Timoky sux” all over my desk. Thank goodness they all faded away.

ReplyDeleteI never knew your name came from a typoon. It's interesting how your parents thought of naming you after a typhoon.
I like the sentence: "I guess the typhoon and I do have some similarities… one is probably the amount of trouble I cause. Another is probably that I am not easily discouraged and I CAN’T BE DESTROYED mawhaha." This sentence shows that reasons your names git you, and the sentence is funny too. xD
Maybe you can ass more of your own feeling inside. Like how you feel about your name.
Overall, your nicknames are cool, and the way your name originated is special and cool.
I'm Jasmine.
ReplyDeleteI like the line "one is probably the amount of trouble I cause. Another is probably that I am not easily discouraged and I CAN’T BE DESTROYED mawhaha" because I EXTREMELY agree! lol!
Maybe you can give more information on how you got the name "Xpert."
I like your essay. It was very funny. It made me laugh.
HAHA, your essay made me laugh all the way through.
ReplyDeleteI like this sentence:"Why my parents named me after a natural disaster I don’t know, but maybe they were wishing for me to become very powerful (and destructive?)." It's interesting how you put a question in the middle of your paragraph, and i can see your sarcasm.
It would be even better if you could say if you actually liked all those nicknames you have.
Overall, it was one of the funniest essays I've read so far.
uh hmm. timoky. I think your essay is pretty good, however, its a bit too informal. The tone is conveyed very well, but there are too ( ) and one thing you should know is that you should not put ANYONE's NAME IN YOUR ESSAY :>
