Day 20: Nicknames
November 2010
My whole name is Karissa Elora Jose Picson and from that, my parents got Bambam. I'm known as Bambam by very few people, mostly family. Actually the only ones who really call me Bambam are my family, my best friend Arielle and some of her friends who she's introduced me to. I love my name Bambam - it sounds so happy.
I started grade school known as Karissa but my second grade class adviser changed everything! When she did attendance during our first day in class, she loved my second name saying that it was unique and pretty. She asked permission from me, asking if it was okay to call me Elora instead of Karissa and I said yes 'cause I felt sort of special. My class mates started calling me Elora and I've been known as Elora ever since. Actually now that I'm older, even my parents and my sister would introduce me to colleagues as Elora sometimes. I always thought that it was unique but then I found out there were more Elora's in the city. SAD. I still prefer to think it's unique, though.
My last nickname which now a lot of people call me is the HARDEST to spell: E. E as in the letter E. It started when Hannah and I got addicted to Gossip Girl when it was just new. We loved how Blair and Serena called each other B and S so we wanted to try it out, but we ended up just calling me E. From there, my closest friends in high school started calling me E, and sometimes they'd actually shout "E!!!!" across the room, class room, canteen... Wherever. In college, I told one of my buddies about it and then she started calling me E. Now also some people from my class calling me E. I love being called E, because again, I find it unique to be the only one known as E in class or whatever. Plus, it sounds so young and I don't even know why!

Love you guys for reading my blog, really. <3 I don't only continue the challenge because I want to be determined, but also because I love it when people tell me they read my blog or when the view counter grows! Although it's sometimes questionable, I don't care. I love writing and typing up blogs, it really makes me happy when I do it. Please don't forget to check out my photo blog: http://eloratakesphotos.tumblr.com which I also love to update because taking photos also make me really happy. Thank you so much for reading!
Love,
Bambam - Elora - E
