"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet."

Hmmm... my very first post - inaugural, virgin, numero uno, 初 次, etc etc. Even before I start proper, I digress... {=:=}

To 'commemorate' my inaugural post, the title of my first entry - borrowed from the all-time famous scribe, William Shakespeare in "Romeo & Juliet" says it all... What indeed is in a name?

In starting this online record of my daily inane musings as inspired by the entertaining "Saggs and the City" blog, I spent all of half an hour (??) deciding on an 'appropriate' name. Afterall, it will be indicative of my creativity & wit (or however little there is of it)!! With 2 vvv good pals in tow, I ploughed through various potentials which included:

"Rantings of a Desperate (non) Housewife"
"The Queen of MESS"
"In Pursuit of TRUE Love"
"My Name is B" or "I am B"

But the one that stood out remains what you see now - I am "B"...

Due recognition has to be given to dear Saggies, THE ORIGINATOR, who had one day (out of the blue, i might add), decided to 'christen' me "B". There was no turning back from then.... I became "B"! Simple tho' it is, this moniker struck a queer chord in me... I liked it....I liked it ALOT!

It evokes a good, strong feel and a sudden impulse to wanna render a *chest-thumping* proclamation of I am "B"!! Saggies claims that this is gorilla-like and so I decided tt I might add an "aw-yee-aw-yee-aw" (a la Tarzan) with the chest-thumping for a better effect! LOL

Aside from "B", I've also been otherwise referred to as:

"C-Cube" (ref. my full name),

"Brownie" (ref. my perennially dyed brown hair),

"Pwee K'tang" (dun ask - its one of those weird & inexplicable things me & my zany bunch of friends came up with to be in 'da hood-like, ahahaha) *roll eyes*

and most recently "C" (a funny attempt by a depraved friend who has major issues and
wants to be 'unique' & NOT refer to me as "B" - u know who YOU are!!)
amongst others.

Ramblings aside, coming back to my vvv literary quote in the title *grin*... regardless of whatever names I may be called - I am still as 'sweet', 'lovable', 'desirable', etc; in essence, still ME!
