It appears that all the younger people I know are a bit weird...
There is ofcourse Rahul... a high school graduate to be... Now he introduces himself as Raoul... Like the footballer... Spanish Porn Star.. that Raoul... which is ok... modifying your name slightly so that it rolls of the tongue a little better is perfectly acceptable...Ask Shawn or Bill... But this guy takes it to the next level... he actually SIGNS Raoul... in his school report cards his name shows up his Raoul... that's official... that's as good as an official name change... Raoul! I don't get it... Trading one exotic minority ethnicity name for another even more exotic and minority name just defies my bounds of logic...
I think I will change my name to Bah Ling...
Then there is this other kid who calls me up thoroughly excited that they are going to show him on TV. On the 6:00 pm news... so I tune in and watch carefully... and sure enough... there he is... The featured person in a report about Obesity among Primary School Students.... 3 minutes after that he rings me up again... bursting with excitement.....I seriously didn't know what to say.... "Well done. We're so proud of you. Keep it up!" ?!?!?!?!?!?!??
